Mounting the camera
You can attach the camera to a base using the M3 mounting threads built into the
top and bottom of the Manta camera housing. Optionally, you can use the tripod
adapter to mount your Manta camera to a tripod.
Configuring the host computer
Manta cameras can operate on 10/100 or Gigabit speed network interface card. In
order to reach the maximum camera frame rate, a Gigabit speed network interface
card with jumbo packet support is required.
If your host computer has an available Ethernet port, this can be used with Manta
cameras. We recommend that your camera system uses a dedicated Ethernet port
not shared with Internet or local area networks. When more ports are needed, or
your existing network interface card is unable to operate at Gigabit Ethernet
speeds, installing additional hardware may be required.
Usage on mixed-use networks (with printers, Internet, email) is possible but may
impact camera performance (for example, framerate). Check with your network
administrator if required for network configuration.
