This document explains a brief procedure to control FASTCAM Series
Gigabit Ethernet interface models with control software “Photron
FASTCAM Viewer 3” (referred to below as PFV). The procedure may
vary depending on the environment of the PC you are using, especially
its OS and network adapter device. Use this document as a reference
example when checking the settings.
The explanations in this document include the PFV settings.
The PFV must be installed in advance.
The Gigabit Ethernet Interface of the FASTCAM series is compatible with
1000BASE-T standard.
You cannot directly connect it to a PC which is
compatible with only 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX
. It is possible to connect
through a switching hub that supports 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or
1000BASE-T, but we do not recommend it due to a decrease in
performance. The use of USB adapter will enable connecting to PCs
without onboard LAN adapter though it may lead to decrease in
performance.
You can use a commercial LAN cable to connect FASTCAM series to a
PC, though we basically recommend you to use the LAN cable which
comes with the FASTCAM camera. When you use a
commercially-available LAN cable, be sure to use an STP or UTP cable
which is beyond the Enhanced Category 5 (CAT5e) standard.
This document presumes one-on-one operation between the PC and the
camera on a closed network and includes explanations of the simplest
connection method. If you wish to know how to make a connection in a
more complicated case, for example, connecting multiple camera
