1.4 System Configuration
The GigE Vision cameras require two parts of system configurations; Camera setup and PC setup.
1.4.1 Camera Power Requirement
1.4.1.1 GPIO Connector
Camera power is 12 V DC
±
10% and we recommend
to support more than 1A on inrush current at the
start-up.
The typical current consumption is 300 mA at standby and 310 mA when it sends streamed images.
We suggest to use the industrial GPIO cable (Intercon1; GPIO-XX-PS) but the standard MDR-14 pin
plug (3M;10114-3000PE) with a MDR shell can be used.
1.4.1.2 RJ-45 Connector
Data communication uses standard RJ-45. The GigE standard requires
CAT-5e or CAT-6 Ethernet
cables.
Either Patch cable or Cross cable works for the camera interface. We suggest using the industrial
GigE cable (Intercon1 GigE cable; GEVPT-XX-P) for the secure and reliable operations.
1.4.2 PC Requirement
1.4.2.1 PC Basic Requirement
To achieve the full bandwidth of the GigE Vision cameras, a PC must have at least
•
1.4 GHz or faster CPU (Pentium 4, Athlon)
•
Windows 2000, XP Professional, or Red Hat Linux
•
More than 128M Byte of RAM
•
A GP video card supporting DirectX 8.1 and not using shared memory (See Pleora documents;
A normal video card works but with less efficiency of the CPU performance
.
)
1.4.2.2 Network Adaptor
A PC must have a GigE NIC (Network Interface Card) to achieve full performance. Each NIC card
contains an Ethernet PHY chip made by various companies. For the best performance, we suggest
using the Intel Pro1000 NIC. With the Pleora e-Bus Driver, other NIC can be also used.
See driver installation section.
We recommend the following network adaptors;
Intel Pro/1000 MT Desktop Adaptor (32-bit PCI),
Intel Pro/1000 MT Server Adaptor (64-bit PCI-X),
Intel Pro/1000 MT Dual and Quad Port Server Adaptors.
1.4.2.3 Ethernet Switch
Since the GigE Vision standards comply with the Internet Protocol, the products should work with
standard switches. However, machine vision industry requires jumbo-packet handling thus limits the
selection of applicable switches.
The following switches have been suggested by Pleora.
3COM
3C1740x
(3800
Family)
3C1770x
(4900
Family)
DLINK
DGS-10xxTx
10/100/1000
Family
DGS-3308-FG,
DGS-3308-TG
CISCO
WS-C3750G-12S-S
The above list may change from time to time. Please contact GEViCAM or Pleora for the updated
models.
