Linea HS Series Cameras
Linea HS Series Camera User's Manual
The wire gauge of the power cable should be sufficient to accommodate a surge during power-up of
at least 3 amps with a minimum voltage drop between the power supply and camera. The camera
can accept any voltage b12 and +24 Volts. If there is a voltage drop between the power
supply and camera, ensure that the power supply voltage is at least 12 Volts plus this voltage drop.
The camera input supply voltage can be read using CamExpert. Refer to the section on Voltage &
Temperature Measurement for more details.

To reduce the chance of stress and vibration on the cables, we recommend that you
use cable clamps, placed close to the camera, when setting up your imaging
system. Stress or vibration of the heavy CLHS AOC cables may damage the
camera’s connectors.
