4 Installing a GigE Camera
4.1 General Considerations
The installation procedures assume that you will be making a peer-to-peer connection between
your camera and a computer.
Make sure that the following items are available before starting the installation:
A Basler GigE camera.
As applicable, a power supply or a GigE power injector:
Make sure that the power supply meets all of the requirements listed in the Physical Interface
section of the camera User’s Manual.
If you want to use Power over Ethernet (PoE) as an alternative for a camera with PoE capability
use a GigE power injector.
As applicable, a C-mount, CS-mount, or an F-mount lens for the camera.
If you already know what lens you will be using in your actual application, use this lens during
the camera installation and setup. If not, Basler suggests using a zoom lens for your initial
installation and setup. Contact Basler technical support if you need assistance in determining
the best lens for your application. The support contact numbers appear in the title pages of this
manual.
A computer with a GigE network adapter installed. For a list of recommended network
adapters, see Section 4.5.1 on page 19. These adapters have been tested with Basler
cameras and work well.
The computer must be equipped with an appropriate operating system. For recommendations,
see Section 3.1 on page 3.
A standard Ethernet patch cable. Basler recommends the use of a category 6 or category 7
cable that has S/STP shielding (two cables if you are using a power injector).
You should perform the software installation procedure first and the hardware installation procedure
second.
