The Adapter Config Utility lists your network adapters and allows you to access the following:... - Page 10 3 Forge 5GigE Installation If both power sources are connected the camera always uses external power over the GPIO connector. The camera does not transmit images for the first 100 ms after power-up. The auto-exposure and auto-white balance algorithms do not run while the camera is powered down. It may therefore take several images to get a satisfactory image.
