Setting Up the Hardware
This section describes how to connect the basic hardware components of
the CVS-1450 device. When these basic components are connected for the
first time, the CVS-1450 device runs a program that acquires images. This
program verifies that all hardware components are properly connected and
functioning.
The following items are necessary for hardware setup.
CVS-1450 device
24 VDC ±10%, 50 W power supply
DCAM-compliant IEEE 1394 camera
IEEE 1394 cable
Ethernet cable
Monitor
Connecting a Camera and Monitor to the CVS-1450 Device
Before connecting a camera and monitor to the CVS-1450 device, make
sure that all CVS-1450 device DIP switches are in the OFF position.
To connect an IEEE 1394 camera and a monitor to the CVS-1450 device,
refer to Figure 2-2 while completing the following steps:
1. Connect the VGA cable from the monitor to the VGA port on the
CVS-1450 device.
2. Plug the IEEE 1394 cable into one of the IEEE 1394a ports on the
CVS-1450 device. Plug the other end of the cable into the IEEE 1394
port on the camera.
If your camera requires an external power supply, connect it to the
camera, and verify that the camera is powered on.
3. Plug in and power on the monitor.
