For Mac OS Computers:
•
Intel based Macintosh computers with an OHCI compliant IEEE 1394B port.
•
Mac OS X 10.5 and above.
•
256 MB+ RAM
•
The included IEEE 1394B card should be installed when a 1394b port is not present.
IEEE 1394 (FireWire) Interface
The Rolera EM-C
2
can be powered and controlled through an IEEE 1394a or 1394b (FireWire)
digital interface. To realise the full benefits of the Rolera EM-C
2
, 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. Maximum frame rates at
14-bit will require a 1394b connection to exist on the computer and the supplied card can be used to
ensure full performance through the FireWire interface.
Cables
A 3-meter FireWire 9-pin to 9-pin interface cable is included with the camera. The 9-pin connection
of either cable must be connected to the available FireWire 1394b port at the back of the camera; the
other end of the cable plugs into your computer’s 9-pin FireWire port. QImaging recommends that
you install the supplied 1394B PCI-Express card to ensure proper connection to the 1394b port and
experience the full benefits of the camera.
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. When
connecting the Rolera EM-C
2
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 Rolera EM-C
2
by attaching the included external power supply to the system.
