Teledyne Linea CL LA-CM-08K08A User Manual page 17

The camera meets all performance specifications using standard switching power supplies,
although well-regulated linear supplies provide optimum performance.
WARNING: When setting up the camera's power supplies follow these guidelines:
 Apply the appropriate voltages.
 Protect the camera with a 1 or 2 amp slow-blow fuse between the power
supply and the camera.
 Do not use the shield on a multi-conductor cable for ground.
 Keep leads as short as possible in order to reduce voltage drop.
Use high-quality supplies in order to minimize noise.

Note: If your power supply does not meet these requirements, then the camera
performance specifications are not guaranteed.
Power over Camera Link
The Linea 2k and 4k Camera Link cameras are Power over Camera Link (PoCL) compatible*, but
are not compliant with the full PoCL specification as their operation is dependent on the frame
grabber used. These cameras exceed the 4 W PoCL power specification, but some frame grabbers,
such as the Xtium frame grabber from Teledyne Dalsa, are able to supply sufficient power for the
camera's operation.
PoCL can be enabled from within CamExpert. Be sure to connect the power supply to the Xtium
frame gabber in the PC.
PoCL power can only be supplied through the Data 1 (base) camera link port.
* The 8k and 16k models do not support PoCL.
Camera Status LED
The Linea CL has one multicolor LED to provide a simple visible indication of camera state. The
table below summarizes the operating states of the camera and the corresponding LED states.
When more than one condition is active, the LED indicates the condition with the highest priority.
