Thermal Considerations and Mounting

If the internal temperature sensor reads 70 °C or more, the smart camera immediately halts 
operation and becomes unresponsive. The IMG ACQ LED and the FAIL LED flash red. You 
must remove and reapply power to the smart camera to recover from this condition.

To maximize the cooling efficiency of the smart camera, mount it to a thermally conductive 
structure, as specified in the 

Mounting the NI Smart Camera

 section.

Mounting the NI Smart Camera

Caution

If you choose not to mount the NI Smart Camera to a thermally 

conductive structure, do not position the smart camera with the heat sinks resting on 
any surface. Doing so may violate the thermal requirements of the smart camera and 
cause the smart camera to overheat. Refer to Appendix A, 

Specifications

, for 

temperature specifications.

Figures 8-2 through 8-5 provide the dimensional drawings necessary to create a custom mount 
for the smart camera.
