Camera Power Requirements

 

• 7.5V DC, 2.5A

A power supply for use with your MicroPublisher 6 camera has been provided by Teledyne QImaging.

IMPORTANT: Follow the below steps in order. 

DO NOT CONNECT the camera until the driver is installed.

1. Install the Camera Driver

In order for the MicroPublisher 6 camera to communicate with the host PC, the camera’s device driver must first be installed. 
The latest version of the PVCAM driver installer is available on the Teledyne QImaging website as well as the provided USB 
drive. The recommended driver for the MicroPublisher 6 is PVCAM 3.6.7.2 or newer. However, the camera will work with 
revisions as old as PVCAM 3.0.9.2. Be sure to select the appropriate installer based on your PC’s operating system.

The MicroPublisher 6 camera is designed and tested for use with Microsoft Windows 64-bit operating systems. Contact 
Teledyne QImaging customer service for more information. 

After completing the PVCAM installation, restart your PC when prompted by the wizard. For advanced users wishing to use 
the camera in a custom programming environment, the PVCAM Software Development Kit is available on the Teledyne 
QImaging website.

NOTE: Supplemental PVCAM installation information can be found on the Teledyne QImaging website:

2. Connect the Camera

Note: Power switch on power supply cable

There are three connectors on the back of the MicroPublisher 6 camera: a USB 3.0 connector, a power supply connector, 
and an I/O connector. Connect the camera following these steps

 

1

. Connect the supplied USB 3.0 cable to the USB 3.0 interface port on your computer and connect the other end

 

    of the cable to the USB 3.0 connector located on the back of the camera. (The USB 3.0 interface transfers camera 

 

    settings and image data to the host PC.) The MicroPublisher 6 camera should be connected to a USB 3.0 port. 

 

    It should also be the only device on its USB root hub controller (see Figure 2 below). Please see the following 

 

    section on how to select the appropriate USB port for optimum camera performance. This ensures the maximum 

 

    bus bandwidth is available to the camera for data transfers. USB 3.0 ports are often (but not always) identifiable by 

 

    a blue internal socket or the “SuperSpeed” (or just “SS”) USB logo.
