Note that pins 3 and 4 are used for clocking the camera. Pins 1 and 2 are reserved for synching multiple DEWESoft instruments! 4.2.2. SIRIUS connection example In this picture you see a typical SIRIUS device consisting of a S-Box unit (integrated PC) on bottom and one SIRIUS slice on top (from rear side). DS-CAM 600 V20-1 7/27 ...
DEWETRON instruments must not have DI-ISO option (isolated inputs/outputs)! In this case ● clocking is not possible, only free-run (the CLK pin is not available on the connector). Free-run operation (without clocking) is easy, just connect the camera over PoE injector to the GigE LAN port. DS-CAM 600 V20-1 8/27 ...

Results (FPS) should be considered only as approximate MAX values. It depends on the system performance (CPU, JPEG compression, harddisk). We recommend to test cameras with your setup at about 0.8*max_FPS and higher to find where corrupted image, frame lost or buffer overrun will occur. DS-CAM 600 V20-1 11/27 ...
