Note:
An X64-AN Quad board is able to provide up to 500mA of power to connected cameras from
the PCI bus (fused protected). Nonetheless, Teledyne DALSA strongly recommends connecting the
floppy power connector (see
” on page 69
) to ensure sufficient current is
available from the PC power supply.
Caution:
Sinking more than 500mA from the X64-AN Quad PCI connector may result in the auto-
reset fuse blowing. Check your camera datasheet for the required camera current.
