For Mac OS Computers:
• PowerPC-based Macintosh with an OHCI compliant IEEE 1394 port (G4, G5 and iMac
®
models).
• iMac models may not provide enough power to cooled cameras. QImaging’s IEEE 1394
HUB may be required to power the camera. Contact QImaging for ordering information.
• Mac OS X 10.2.x and higher
• 256 MB+ RAM
• All the G4, G5 and iMac models are equipped with a FireWire card. The included IEEE 1394
PCI is not required for Mac OS computers.
IEEE 1394 (FireWire) Interface
The Retiga-SRV can be powered and controlled through an IEEE 1394 (FireWire) digital interface. To
realise the full bemefits of the Retiga-SRV, a single FireWire connection from the camera to the
computer combined with the external power connection will allow full control of the camera and rapid
image data transfer from the camera to the computer.
Cables
A 4.5 meter FireWire interface cable is included with the camera. One end of this cable connects to
either of the available FireWire ports at the back of the camera (9-pin connection); the other end of
the cable plugs into your computer’s 6-pin FireWire port.
Some computers have 4-pin FireWire ports. These ports may be used if they are OHCI compliant, but
you will need to purchase a 4-pin to 9-pin FireWire cable from your local computer store or a 4-pin
to 6-pin adapter from QImaging. When connecting the Retiga-SRV to any FireWire port, you will need
to use an external power supply.
What is the difference between 4-pin, 6-pin and 9-pin FireWire ports?
FireWire cables are available in three varieties: 4-pin, 6-pin and 9-pin. 9-pin and 6-pin FireWire cables
are capable of providing both power and a communication interface between the camera and
computer while 4-pin cables provide only a communication interface. Some laptop computers have
6-pin FireWire jacks that do not provide power. If your computer has such a port, you will have to
power your Retiga-SRV by attaching the included external power supply to the system.
