ƒ A C- or CS-Mount lens. Please note however that the high quality
of digital cameras should not be reduced by using lenses of low
quality (
see section 3.6, “How to Maximize Image Quality”
).
PHYTEC provides a wide range of compatible high-quality lenses.
ƒ A PHYTEC FireWire camera.
ƒ In case the IEEE 1394 bus does not provide supply voltage (which
is common to almost all laptop solutions), you will need an extra
mains adapter (e.g. the SV001,
see above
). You can use a stabilised
quality-mains adapter of your choice alternatively if it provides 8
to 30 VDC and 500 mA.
Please read section 1.5,“Important
Notes"
ƒ A cable for the connection between camera and IEEE 1394 bus.
This will usually be the IEEE 1394 interface (host controller) of

can use any other cable alternatively if they comply with the IEEE
1394 standard.
Please read section 1.5,,“Important Notes"
