- Page 13 12V Power and Power Ground To operate the camera 12V Power with suitable current capacity (see specifications) must be provided on Pin 1 and the Power Ground on Pin 2. A cable assembly providing this power can be ordered from AVT (AVT P/N 02-8007A for North America or AVT P/N 02-8008A for a Universal supply).
- Page 14 Isolated Ground Isolated Ground must be connected to the user’s external circuit ground if Sync Input 1 or Sync Output 1 is to be used. Signal Ground Signal Ground must be connected to the user’s external circuit ground if Sync Input 2 or Sync Output 2 is to be used or if the RS-232 port is to be used.

Page 15: 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 16: Adjusting The C-Mount
Adjusting the C-mount LOCKING RING C-MOUNT RING Figure 3. Camera Front View. 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 17: Camera Installation
Camera Installation Computer Interface The Prosilica GB Series cameras will work with any Ethernet network card; however AVT strongly recommends using Gigabit Ethernet components that support Jumbo Frames. A Jumbo Frame is loosely defined as a frame size greater than 1500 bytes however typical Jumbo Frames are around 9000 bytes. - Page 18 Gigabit Ethernet Setup for Windows o Install network card in computer. o Boot the PC and cancel the “Found new Hardware Wizard” window that may appear when Windows detects the new card. o Install the driver that came with the network card. o Once the driver is installed, open the Network Connections Dialog as follows: From the Windows desktop select start, then select Control Panel, then double click on the Network Connections icon.
- Page 19 Figure 5. Network card TCP/IP address. Figure 6. Turn off Firewall. o Return to the Gige Local Properties window as in Figure 4. Select the Advanced tab as in Figure 6 and disable the Firewall for this device. Click OK to save changes. GB660 Technical Manual Page 19...
- Page 20 Gigabit Ethernet Cabling All Gigabit Ethernet cabling and connectors should be CAT5E or CAT6 compatible. Cable lengths must not exceed 100 meters. Power Connection The camera requires a 12V DC power supply that can source a minimum of 500 mA of current. See the Connections section of this document for more information.
- Page 21 Installing GigE Viewer for Testing o The latest Viewer software can be downloaded from http://www.alliedvisiontec.com/us/support.html. o Run the GigE Viewer Installer.exe. This will install the Prosilica GB Digital Camera drivers as well as the AVT GigE Viewer application program. o Plug in the Prosilica GB camera via the Gigabit Ethernet port. Plug in the power connection. Verify that the Status LED 2 is a solid green.

Page 22: System Optimization
System Optimization o Open the Network Connections Dialog as follows: From the Windows desktop select start, then select Control Panel, then double click on the Network Connections icon. Double click the relevant network card listed or right-click the relevant network card and select Properties. This will open the properties window for your network card. - Page 23 Figure 9. Network card advanced settings. o Set Maximum Frame Size or Jumbo Frames to the maximum possible value. A typical value is 9000. If the list contains a property called Receive Descriptors, then change this value to its maximum value. Select OK to save properties. o From the main properties dialog as in Figure 8, make sure that only the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) check box is selected then click OK.

Page 24: Trouble Shooting
Trouble Shooting Check the Basics o Is power available? Check the status LED 2. If the LED is off, the camera is not getting power. Verify the connections and cabling. o Is the LED 2 flashing once per second? This occurs if the firmware is corrupt because a firmware update was interrupted. -

Page 31: Notes On Triggering
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 32 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.
