8. Wire the MX-U Series camera’s strobe and trigger connections to the camera’s terminal blocks. See “Connecting
the Camera” on page 3-5.
9. Wire the MX-U Series Processor power connector to the optional power supply. Wire AC power to the power sup-
ply. Connect the power supply plug to the processor connector. See “Power Supply Connection” on page 2-5.
10.Connect the cables from the MX-U Series terminal blocks to their cameras.
11.IMPORTANT: A USB Hardware key is ordered and shipped separately from the processor. It must be present in
the USB port labeled USB5 on the processor front before the processor is powered on. (See “System Factory
Setup” on page 1-1 and “USB Hardware Key” on page 2-7.)
12.Plug the power supplies into an appropriate grounded power source. To protect your system, we recommend using
a surge protector.
13.Turn on the MX-U Series Processor power switch. Turn on the camera power supply.
NOTE : Default network IP addresses were assigned to the MX-U Series Processor and Cameras at the factory. You will
probably not need to change them unless there is a conflict with other devices on your network.
14.Start the Impact Software program Vision Program Manager and click on the Settings tab. Check your camera and
lighting setup, calibrate the camera, configure your inspection parameters, then put the camera online. For more
information about using Impact software, refer to the Impact Reference Guide.
If your system does not work when you are finished with the setup, review the instructions and diagrams to make sure you
made all connections properly.
Please note that Datalogic cannot guarantee the performance of MX-U Series systems which have additional software
installed on them, including, but not limited to, anti-virus and firewall software. Datalogic recommends that MX-U Series
systems remain disconnected from networks that access the Internet in order to minimize security risks. Datalogic will
attempt to support systems with antivirus software installed, but we cannot guarantee system performance.
The total processor-to-camera bandwidth is 600 Megapixels per second. Each connected camera shares this bandwidth.
For example, if two cameras are connected, each camera can use up to a maximum of 300 Megapixels per second. For
four cameras, each camera can use up to a maximum of 150 Megapixels per second. This means that both the camera res-
olution and the number of connected cameras can affect the frames per second (fps) value for all connected cameras.
