Setting Up Your In-Sight Vision System Mounting the Vision System The vision system provides mounting holes for attachment to a mounting surface. CAUTION: The vision system has to be grounded, either by mounting the vision system to a fixture that is electrically grounded or by attaching a wire from the mounting fixture of the vision system to frame ground or Earth ground.
Setting Up Your In-Sight Vision System Converter Mounting Bracket (ISB-7000-7K) 1. Align the converter mounting bracket with the mounting holes on the vision system. 2. Insert the M3 screws into the mounting holes and use a 2.5 mm hex wrench to tighten. The maximum torque is 0.90 Nm (8 in-lb).
Setting Up Your In-Sight Vision System Connection Options This section summarizes connection options. Connecting the Ethernet Cable CAUTION: The Ethernet cable shield has to be grounded at the far end. Whatever this cable is plugged into (typically a switch or router) should have a grounded Ethernet connector. A digital voltmeter has to be used to validate the grounding.
