Interface Description Product Dimensions The product dimensions are as follows: Figure 2-1 62mm×62mm×44mm(Unit:mm) Interface Description The back of the device has two interfaces, the network interface and 12pin power as well as I/O interface, as shown below: Figure 2-2 62mm×62mm×44mm Interface Description...
2.2.1 Network Interface Network interface, RJ45 Ethernet port, three-speed Ethernet 10M / 100M / 1000Mbps transmission interface for camera control, data transmission and power supply (POE function). It is best to use shielded twisted-pair Category 6 cable in order to ensure the transmission quality, as well as to prevent too much data retransmission and packet loss phenomenon.

Issues Related to Image Acquiring 3.4.1 FailedStream Acquiring The port is not a GigE port and Jumbo is disabled. Trigger is disabled for the camera. Figure 3-1Network connection Issues Related to Debugging and Installation Only a line is captured by the camera: It is possible that the sensor and the scan line are not in parallel.
Page 18
Images of the same type of products have huge differences: The light source is not in parallel with the captured object. We recommend you install the line scan camera horizontally. If the camera is installed slantly, you can install a fixed part to unify the installation angle.
Cleaning and Maintenance This chapter mainly introduces cleaning and replacement of color filter. We have installed a fully transparent protective glass for the mono camera with the main purpose of preventing dust from falling on the surface of the image sensor. The color camera is equipped with a low-pass filter that cuts off to the near-infrared band.
