Functions & Operations
4.1
GigE Vision Standard Interface
The TM-1405GE series cameras are designed in accordance with the GigE Vision standard. Digital
images are transmitted over Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cables. All camera functions are also controlled
via the GigE Vision interface.
The camera can operate in continuous mode, providing an endless stream of images. For capturing
individual images, related to a specific event, the camera can also be triggered. For precise
triggering, it is recommended to use a hardware trigger applied to the Hirose 12-pin connector. It is
also possible to initiate a software trigger through the GigE Vision interface. However, when using a
software trigger, certain latency inherent to the GigE interface must be anticipated. This latency,
that manifests itself as jitter, greatly depends on the general conditions and traffic on the GigE
connection. The frame rate described in this manual is for the ideal case and may deteriorate
depending on conditions.
When using multiple cameras (going through a switch and/or a single path) or when operating in a
system with limited transmission bandwidth the Delayed Readout Mode and Inter-Packet Delay
functions can be useful.
4.2
GigE Vision-Aware Software
A GigE Vision camera can be controlled by any software that understands the protocol. At JAI we
provide the JAI GigE Vision SDK and Control Tool to interface with our cameras. The remainder of the
manual will show screenshots of the JAI Control Tool but other 3rd party software will provide
similar functionalities.
4.3
Recommended Network Configurations
Although the TM-1405GE series cameras conform to Gigabit Ethernet (IEEE 802.3) not all
combinations of network interface cards (NICs) and switches/routers are suitable for use with the
GigE Vision compliant camera.
4.3.1
Verified Network Interface Cards (NICs)
At the time of publishing this document these combinations have been verified:
NIC: Intel Pro/1000MT, Pro/1000GT, Pro/1000PT.
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 1.84Ghz.
Memory: 2 GB
Video Card: video card on PCI Express bus with at least 256MB of VRAM.
Functions such as screen saver and power save should not be used. Unnecessary applications such as
Word, Excel or others should not be used.
