Smart Vision Light. The example is set in a way so that you obtain the maximum illumination
intensity the light can continuously support without any restrictions.
The camera power supply depends on the camera model. The camera power supply can be
delivered via data cable or via AUX power. For information about the possibilities, refer to the
