It is recommended that CAT5E or CAT6 compatible cabling and connectors be used for best performance. Cable lengths up to 100m are supported.
  • Page 9 GC650 User Manual 70-0020A-D 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.

    GC650 User Manual 70-0020A-D Cleaning the Sensor DO NOT CONTACT CLEAN SENSOR UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. Identifying Debris Debris on the image sensor or optical components will appear as a darkened area or smudge on the image that does not move as the camera is moved. Do not confuse this with a pixel defect which will appear as a distinct point.

    GC650 User Manual 70-0020A-D Trouble Shooting Is the camera getting power? The right LED is the camera power indicator. If unlit, check the power adaptor. If possible, swap with one that is known to work. If using a custom power adaptor, be sure the adaptor and wire gauge is rated to at least 500 mA.
  • Page 21 GC650 User Manual 70-0020A-D The following example is not on the same Subnet: NIC IP 169.250.23.2 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0, CamIP 169.254.13.0 Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0. This can happen if you use a non AutoIP range on your NIC and it doesn’t have access to a DHCP server. Either change your NIC IP to be in the AutoIP range, or fix the camera IP address to be on the same subnet as your NIC.
