Teledyne Kuro, Manual

Appendix E PCI Express (PCIe) Card 41
The connector can only be inserted with the correct orientation, do not force the
connector. If the connector does not insert, simply turn the connector over and retry.
NOTE:
With the camera oriented so the labels on the camera are
upright, the green “quick release” pull tab on the cable will
be facing down.
With the cable connected on both ends of the camera, it is ready to power on the
computer.
1. Verify that the power switch on the side of the camera is in the off position.
2. Connect the power supply to the Power connector on the rear of the camera.
3. Plug the power cord into the power supply and then into a suitable wall outlet.
4. Switch on the camera (power switch on the side of camera.)
5. Wait 10 seconds before powering on the PC.
NOTE:
The power supply and connector used by the Kuro sCMOS
camera is a common type. However, Teledyne Princeton
Instruments carefully selects power supplies for optimum
noise performance, EMI compliance and stability. Do not
swap power supplies with other lab equipment even though
they may meet the connector, voltage and ampere
requirements of the Kuro.
E.3 Troubleshooting
This section provides information about troubleshooting issues that may arise that are
PCIe specific.
E.3.1 System Does Not Boot Normally
If the operating system does not boot normally after the interface card is installed, try
reseating the PCIe card. If this is unsuccessful, try installing the new card in another
open PCIe 4x or higher slot. If this does not work:
1. Turn off the computer and remove the newly installed interface card.
2. Turn the computer on. If the system boots normally, there is probably an interrupt
conflict between a previously installed device.
If you need assistance resolving the interrupt conflict, contact Teledyne Princeton
Instruments Customer Service. Refer to
Contact Information on page 46 for complete
information.
