GC750 User Manual 70-0032A-A Connections Figure 2. GC SERIES connection diagram. Prosilica Inc. - Page 8 To operate the camera 12V Power with suitable current capacity (see specifications) must be provided on Pin 2 and the Power Ground on Pin 1. A cable assembly providing this power can be ordered from Prosilica (Prosilica P/N 02-8003A for North America or Prosilica P/N 02-8004A for a Universal supply).
- Page 9 GC750 User Manual 70-0032A-A Sync Input 1 and Sync Input 2 These input signals allow the camera to be synchronized to some external event. The camera can be programmed to trigger on the rising edge, falling edge, both edges or level of this signal. The camera can also be programmed to capture an image at some programmable delay time after the trigger event.
- Page 10 GC750 User Manual 70-0032A-A Isolated Ground Isolated Ground must be connected to the user’s external circuit ground if Sync Input 1 or Sync Output 1 is to be used. Signal Ground Signal Ground must be connected to the user’s external circuit ground if Sync Input 2 or Sync Output 2 is to be used or if the RS-232 port is to be used.

Page 12: Camera Installation
Camera Installation Computer Interface The Prosilica GC Series cameras will work with any Ethernet network card; however Prosilica strongly recommends using Gigabit Ethernet components that support Jumbo Frames. A Jumbo Frame is loosely defined as a frame size greater than 1500 bytes however typical Jumbo Frames are around 9000 bytes. - Page 13 GC750 User Manual 70-0032A-A Gigabit Ethernet Setup for Windows o Install network card in computer. o Boot the PC and cancel the “Found new Hardware Wizard” window that may appear when Windows detects the new card. o Install the driver that came with the network card.
- Page 14 GC750 User Manual 70-0032A-A o Select the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) check box and then select Properties. See Figure 5. Network card TCP/IP address.. Select the Use the following IP address and enter an IP address of 169. 254. x. y, where x and y can be any number. Press the TAB key after entering the IP address and the subnet mask will automatically be entered.
- Page 15 GC750 User Manual 70-0032A-A Figure 6. Turn off Firewall. o Return to the Gige Local Properties window as in Figure 4. Select the Advanced tab as in Figure 6 and disable the Firewall for this device. Click OK to save changes.
- Page 16 Plug in the Prosilica camera via the Gigabit Ethernet port. Plug in the power connection. Verify that the Status LED 2 is a solid green. Run the Prosilica GigE Viewer Application. It will take a few seconds for the camera to be recognized. If the camera does not appear in the Viewer list after approximately 10 seconds then try disconnecting and reconnecting the power.

GC750 User Manual 70-0032A-A System Optimization o Open the Network Connections Dialog as follows: From the Windows desktop select start, then select Control Panel, then double click on the Network Connections icon. Double click the relevant network card listed or right-click the relevant network card and select Properties. - Page 18 GC750 User Manual 70-0032A-A Figure 9. Network card advanced settings. o Set Maximum Frame Size or Jumbo Frames to the maximum possible value. A typical value is 9000. If the list contains a property called Receive Descriptors, then change this value to its maximum value.

Page 25: Notes On Triggering
GC750 User Manual 70-0032A-A Notes on Triggering Definitions o User Trigger is the trigger signal applied by the user. o Logic Trigger is the trigger signal seen by the camera internal logic. o Tpd is the propagation delay between the User Trigger and the Logic Trigger. - Page 26 GC750 User Manual 70-0032A-A Triggering during the Readout State o For applications requiring the fastest triggering cycle time whereby the camera image sensor is exposing and reading out simultaneously, then the User Trigger signal should be applied as soon as a valid Trigger Ready is detected.
