Fig. 1: IDS NXT rome
·
1: Pin assignment GigE connector (M12, 8-pin)
·
2: Pin assignment I/O connector (M12, 12-pin)
NOTICE! The camera can be supplied with voltage both from an external source and via
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE). The camera should not be supplied through both voltage sources
at once as this can irreparably damage the camera.
1. Install the IDS NXT cockpit.
2. Make sure that your camera is powered (LEDs are flashing), either with the I/O connector or with PoE
(Power-over-Ethernet).
3. Connect the camera to to a Gigabit Ethernet port on the PC either directly or using switches.
Cables
·
Use Cat5e type cables or better for the complete connection between your camera and the host PC.
·
The cable length of each segment must not exceed 100 m. A segment is a continuous cable connection
between two network devices (e.g. PC, camera, switch).
Network devices involved
All devices that contribute to the network connection between camera and host PC (e.g. switches) should
support at least 1000 Mbit/s to ensure a consistent connection.
It is recommended that each device uses Jumbo Frames, if possible. Otherwise the maximum possible packet
size will be used. Refer to your device's manual how to configure Jumbo Frames.
Network adapter settings
Your camera should be connected to a separate network card or port. Do not use the same as for your
internet connection (or other communication network) because this reduces the bandwidth for image data
transfer and can lead to incomplete or lost images.
