  • Page 19: Configuring The Host Computer

    Installation and hardware Configuring the host computer Allied Vision GigE Vision cameras can operate on 10/100 or Gigabit speed Ethernet adapters. In order to reach the maximum camera frame rate, a Gigabit speed Ethernet adapter is required. If your host computer has an available Ethernet port, this can be used with Allied Vision GigE cameras.
  • Page 20: Ethernet Adapter Driver Settings

    Maximum value configurable Transmit Buffers Default packet size The default packet size of Allied Vision GigE cameras is 8228 bytes. The host network adapter needs to support a packet size of equal or larger size to stream from the camera.
