Step 3: Verifying the Camera’s Connection Status
When power is supplied to the camera while the necessary equipment is connected, the power /
trigger LED and LINE LEDs at the rear of the camera light amber, and initialization of the camera starts.
When initialization is complete, the power / trigger LED lights green. The CXP status indicators (LINK 1
to 4) light or blink according to the connection status.
Verify whether power is being supplied to the camera and whether connection has been established
by checking the rear LEDs.

For details on how to read the LEDs, see “LED status and camera status” (page 9) in the “Parts
Identification” section.
Note
Initialization of the camera is not complete until connection with the host is established. If the power / trigger LED
does not switch to green within minutes of supplying power, check the CXP cable and other connections. After
initialization is completed once, the power / trigger LED will remain green, even if the host is disconnected.
Step 4: Configuring Initial Settings for the Camera
Start Control Tool, connect the camera to the CXP frame grabber board, and configure initial settings
for the output format, exposure, external trigger, etc.
