GX1660 User Manual 70-0057A-A GIGABIT ETHERNET PORTS These ports conform to the IEEE 802.3 1000BASE-T standard for Gigabit Ethernet over copper. It is recommended that CAT5E or CAT6 compatible cabling and connectors be used for best performance. Cable lengths up to 100m are supported. For higher bandwidth requirements, both ports can be used in a link aggregation group (LAG) configuration.

GX1660 User Manual 70-0057A-A EXTERNAL POWER This connection provides the main power for the camera. The camera operates from a DC voltage between 5V to 24V. The current capacity of the power supply can be estimated by dividing the camera’s power requirement by the external power voltage. It is also recommended to factor this by about 50% as follows: Power supply current capacity = (power specification / external voltage) x 1.5 The conductor used for this connection must be adequate for

GX1660 User Manual 70-0057A-A SYNC OUTPUTS (1 to 4) These signals are optically isolated and require the user to provide a high voltage level (USER VCC) and signal common (USER GROUND). USER VCC can be from 5V to 24V. ICC is a function of USER VCC and load resistor R. An example of the functional circuit is indicated in the following diagram.

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. Locating Debris Before attempting to clean the image sensor, it is important to first determine that the problem is due to debris on the

GX1660 User Manual 70-0057A-A Adjusting the C-mount THE C-MOUNT IS ADJUSTED AT THE FACTORY AND SHOULD NOT REQUIRE ADJUSTING. If for some reason, the C-mount requires adjustment, use the following method. Loosen Locking Ring Use an adjustable wrench to loosen locking ring. Be careful not to scratch the camera. When the locking ring is loose, unthread the ring a few turns from the camera face. A wrench suitable for this procedure can be provided by AVT Canada Inc. (P/N 11-0048A)

GX1660 User Manual 70-0057A-A Network Card Configuration Operating GigE Vision GX cameras using multiple network adaptors The GX series cameras offer two Gigabit Ethernet ports for image data transfer and control. Users can connect one or both ports on the GX to Ethernet adapter ports on a host computer. Connecting both ports will increase the available bandwidth to 240 MB/sec, allowing higher frame rates and resolutions than a single port connection. GX cameras can be operated in

The Property list will be different between different types/brands of gigabit Ethernet interface cards. If "Jumbo Frames" does not appear in this list, then your card probably does not support it. If your card does not support Jumbo Frames, then your CPU usage will be higher. 6. Re-open the "Properties" of the PRO/1000 GT adapter by right-clicking the Local Area Connection "I

GX1660 User Manual 70-0057A-A Trouble Shooting Is the camera getting power? The Green 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 supports the voltage and power requirements of the camera . If the LED still does not light up, contact AVT Canada Inc. support. Is the camera powered, but not detected in SampleViewer? Damaged or poor quality Ethernet cabling can
