Installing In-Sight™ 1000 Series Vision Sensors Precautions Observe these precautions when installing the In-Sight 1000 to reduce the risk of injury or equipment damage: Never connect the In-Sight 1000 to a power source other than 24VDC. Any other voltage creates a risk of fire or shock and can damage the In-Sight hardware.
In-Sight 1000C integrated processor/ color camera (640 x 480 image resolution, RGB primary color mosaic filters, 16 million colors, 24 bits per pixel). Unless otherwise specified, references to the In-Sight 1000 in this document also apply to the In-Sight 1000C model.
1.3 Networking an In-Sight 1000 Sensor An In-Sight 1000 sensor is designed to operate as a host system on an Ethernet TCP/IP network. For the purposes of the instructions in this manual, an In-Sight network exists wherever any In-Sight sensor is connected by Ethernet to at least one other In-Sight sensor or personal computer running In-Sight PC Host software.
Section 1: Introduction 1.3.1 Standalone In-Sight Network Configurations The simplest In-Sight 1000 networks are shown in Figure 1-1 and Figure 1-2. In these basic configurations, a CAT5 crossover cable directly connects a single In-Sight 1000 to a standalone In-Sight PC Host equipped with a network card, or to an In-Sight 3000 processor.
Section: 1: Introduction Installing In-Sight™ 1000 Series Vision Sensors To install multiple In-Sight 1000 sensors onto a standalone In-Sight network, use an Ethernet switch between the In-Sight 1000 sensors and the In-Sight PC Host or In-Sight 3000 sensor. Make all connections via standard, straight-pinned CAT5 cable (Figure 1-3 and Figure 1-4).
Figure 1-5: Multiple In-Sight 1000 Sensors with In-Sight 3000 and PC Host NOTE In-Sight 1000 sensors can be connected to the factory network even if there is no In-Sight PC Host or In-Sight 3000 sensor on the local subnet. In this configuration, any In-Sight 3000 processor or PC Host on any other subnet on the network can provide remote configuration and display service to the In-Sight 1000 sensors.
24VDC). The Network port provides the Ethernet connection for network communications. The Breakout port supplies connections for power, I/O, and serial communications. Figure 2-1: In-Sight 1000 Network and Breakout Ports 2.1.1 Connecting the Network Cable If you are connecting to an Ethernet switch: Plug one of the RJ-45 connectors on a CAT5 straight-pinned cable (yellow if supplied by Cognex) into the ENET port.

2.1.2 Connecting the Breakout Cable The In-Sight Breakout Cable (P/N 300-0340-15) included with every In-Sight sensor provides access to the In-Sight 1000 sensor’s power, serial communications, and I/O lines. The RJ-45 connector on this cable is “keyed” to the notch in the breakout port, and cannot be inadvertently plugged in to the network port.
2.1.3 Connecting the Breakout Module The optional In-Sight Breakout Module (P/N 800-5743) is more convenient than using the standard Breakout Cable to connect the In-Sight 1000 sensor’s power, serial communications, and I/O lines. For additional information on connecting a Breakout module, see Section 3.2.1: Breakout Port Pin Assignments on page 29 or the Breakout Module Installation and Reference manual (P/N 597-0008-xx).

Expansion Module. NOTE The outputs labeled HSOUT0 and HSOUT1 are high-speed outputs direct from the In-Sight 1000 and pass through the Expansion Module. The outputs labeled OUT0 through OUT7 are lower speed because their signals are processed by the Expansion Module processor before being sent to remote devices.
The In-Sight 1000 is configured, and its operation monitored, over an Ethernet network from an In-Sight 3000 or from a PC. To use an In-Sight 1000 networked to an In-Sight 3000 requires a control pad for input and a VGA monitor for display.
In-Sight documentation at www.cognex.com/In-Sight/support/support.asp. 2.3 Adding the In-Sight 1000 to a Network The In-Sight 1000 is ready to be installed as a network host once it has power and is physically connected to the network. As previously described, there are many possible In-Sight network configurations. The specific procedure for adding an In-Sight 1000 to a network depends on whether or not a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server is available.
Page 23
NOTE After adding an In-Sight 1000 to a network with a DHCP server, disabling DHCP on the sensor and assigning it a static IP Address is strongly recommended. For more information on disabling DHCP and assigning a static IP address, refer to the “Network Dialog” topic in the In-Sight Guide &...
Section 2: Installing the In-Sight 1000 Installing In-Sight™ 1000 Series Vision Sensors To install the In-Sight 1000 on a non-DHCP network: Logon to an In-Sight 3000 or In-Sight PC Host program on the local network. From the In-Sight spreadsheet, open the System menu (Figure 2-4).
Enter a Subnet Mask for the local network. The Subnet Mask specifies which parts of the In-Sight 1000's IP Address are the same for all hosts on the local network, and which are unique to each host. The default Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0 is appropriate for most users, as described in Section 2.5.3: Subnet Mask on page...
10 Click OK. The message box shown Figure 2-7 appears. Figure 2-7: IP Configuration Message Box 11 Cycle power on the In-Sight 1000 by removing, then reinserting, the RJ-45 connector from the sensor's Breakout port. The message in Figure 2-8 appears when the In-Sight 1000 is located on the network.
Section 2: Installing the In-Sight 1000 2.4 Logging On to the In-Sight 1000 After the In-Sight 1000 has been added to the network, log on to the sensor to verify the installation and to configure additional network settings. Attach a lens to the In-Sight 1000 you installed to verify the acquisition of live video images.
Installing In-Sight™ 1000 Series Vision Sensors 2.5 Changing In-Sight 1000 Network Settings You may need to change the In-Sight 1000’s Network settings when installing an In- Sight 1000 to a non-DHCP network where a Default Gateway, DNS Server, and Domain name are used, or when moving the In-Sight 1000 from one network to another.

If the network has a DHCP server and the Use DHCP Server check box is enabled, the DHCP server will automatically configure the In-Sight 1000’s network settings on startup. Optionally, a new Host Name may be assigned, but all other fields in the Network dialog will be grayed out and cannot be modified.
The 192.168.0.0/16 private network allows valid IP addresses from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.255.254. The default Subnet Mask is 255.255.0.0 2.5.3 Subnet Mask The Subnet Mask defines which part of the In-Sight 1000 sensor’s IP address refers to the network and which part refers to the host. NOTE When DHCP is enabled, this field is grayed out and displays the value assigned by the DHCP server.
