  • Page 5: Introduction

    Introduction The GX1910 series of cameras are sensitive, 63 frames per second, HDTV resolution, Gigabit Ethernet cameras based on the Kodak KAI-02150 CCD sensor. These cameras support the use of 1 or 2 gigabit Ethernet ports in a LAG configuration for higher bandwidth requirements.

  • Page 11 GIGABIT ETHERNET PORTS These ports conform to the IEEE 802.3 1000BASE-T standard for Gigabit Ethernet over copper. It is recommended that CAT5E or CAT6 compatible cabling and connectors be used for best performance. Cable lengths up to 100m are supported. For higher bandwidth requirements, both ports can be used in a link aggregation group (LAG) configuration.
  • Page 12 EXTERNAL POWER This connection provides the main power for the camera. The camera operates from a DC voltage between 5V to 24V. The current capacity of the power supply can be estimated by dividing the camera’s power requirement by the external power voltage. It is also recommended to factor this by about 50% as follows: Power supply current capacity = (power specification / external voltage) x 1.5 The conductor used for this connection must be adequate for the current consumption...
  • Page 13 SYNC OUTPUTS (1 to 4) These signals are optically isolated and require the user to provide a high voltage level (USER VCC) and signal common (USER GROUND). USER VCC can be from 5V to 24V. ICC is a function of USER VCC and load resistor R. An example of the functional circuit is indicated in the following diagram.
  • Page 14 These signals only function as outputs and can be configured as follows: Exposing Corresponds to when camera is integrating light. Trigger Ready Indicates when the camera will accept a trigger signal. Trigger Input A relay of the trigger input signal used to “daisy chain”...

  • Page 16: Cleaning The Sensor

    Cleaning the Sensor DO NOT CONTACT CLEAN SENSOR UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. Identifying Debris Debris on the image sensor or optical components will appear as a darkened area or smudge on the image that does not move as the camera is moved. Do not confuse this with a pixel defect which will appear as a distinct point.

  • Page 17: Adjusting The C-Mount

    Adjusting the C-mount THE C-MOUNT IS ADJUSTED AT THE FACTORY AND SHOULD NOT REQUIRE ADJUSTING. If for some reason, the C-mount requires adjustment, use the following method. Loosen Locking Ring Use an adjustable wrench to loosen locking ring. Be careful not to scratch the camera. When the locking ring is loose, unthread the ring a few turns from the camera face.

  • Page 19: Network Card Configuration

    Network Card Configuration Operating GigE Vision GX cameras using multiple network adaptors The GX series cameras offer two Gigabit Ethernet ports for image data transfer and control. Users can connect one or both ports on the GX to Ethernet adapter ports on a host computer. Connecting both ports will increase the available bandwidth to 240 MB/sec, allowing higher frame rates and resolutions than a single port connection.
  • Page 20 5. Click on “OK” to validate your change (the “Properties” window will close). The Property list will be different between different types/brands of gigabit Ethernet interface cards. If "Jumbo Frames" does not appear in this list, then your card probably does not support it.

    GigE Sample Viewer and Filter Driver o Download GigE Sample Viewer from www.alliedvisiontec.com. This will install the Sample Viewer application program, drivers, and optionally the AVT/Prosilica Filter Driver. The Filter Driver will improve CPU performance and is recommended. o Plug in the GX camera Ethernet cable(s) and power. Verify that the Green LED is a solid green.

  • Page 24: Trouble Shooting

    Trouble Shooting Is the camera getting power? The Green LED is the camera power indicator. If unlit, check the power adaptor. If possible, swap with one that is known to work. If using a custom power adaptor, be sure the adaptor supports the voltage and power requirements of the camera . If the LED still does not light up, contact AVT Canada Inc.

This can happen if you use a non AutoIP range on your NIC and it doesn’t have access to a DHCP server. Either change your NIC IP to be in the AutoIP range, or fix the camera IP address to be on the same subnet as your NIC.

    Notes on Triggering Definitions o User Trigger is the trigger signal applied by the user. o Logic Trigger is the trigger signal seen by the camera internal logic. o Tpd is the propagation delay between the User Trigger and the Logic Trigger. o Exposure is high when the camera image sensor is integrating light.
  • Page 34 Triggering during the Readout State o For applications requiring the fastest triggering cycle time whereby the camera image sensor is exposing and reading out simultaneously, then the User Trigger signal should be applied as soon as a valid Trigger Ready is detected. o In this case, Trigger Latency and Trigger Jitter can be up to 1 line time since Exposure must always begin on an Interline boundary.
