  • Page 11: Introduction

    1.2. Naming Rules Details of the MERCURY GigE series camera is given in the general specifications below. Each camera model name is determined by its sensor's maximum resolution, maximum frame rate at maximum resolution, the color/monochrome type of the sensor, etc.

  • Page 12: Precautions

    2.Precautions 2. Precautions 2.1. Guidelines for Avoiding EMI and ESD CAT-5e cables or above with S/STP shielding are recommended. Using shielded cable can avoid electro-magnetic interface. Shielding layer of the cable should conduct to ground nearby and not until stretched too long. When many devices need conduct to ground, using single point grounding to avoid earth loop.
