Chapter 2 System Components External Strobe and Sensor For continuous motion or high-speed indexing applications, an external strobe and sensor may be required to freeze each part before the image can be acquired. When choosing your part sensor, you must consider the time interval between the part passing into the sensing zone and an electrical signal being generated. When there is a large variation in process speed, considerable variation in location of the part within the Field of View (FOV) may result. The FOV specified for the Visionscape GigE Camera should be large enough to cover the variation in location.
Power Requirements Refer to Table 2-3 when determining the power supply requirements for your GigE Camera. TABLE 2–3. GigE Camera Power Requirements Power Supply Wiring For complete information about the power supply wiring, see “Power Connector” on page A-2, and “Visionscape GigE Camera Power M8-3 to Pigtail 5M” on page B-2. 2-22 Visionscape GigE Camera Guide Component 24VDC Visionscape GigE Camera 24 volts @ 350ma typical (~3.5W)(8Vdc @ 370ma thru 30Vdc @ 120ma)
