7.5 Camera Power
Camera power must be supplied to the camera’s 12-pin connector via the standard power and I/O
cable or via the PLC power and I/O cable. Power consumption is as shown in the specification
tables in Section 1 of this manual.
.
The following voltage requirements apply to the camera power VCC (pins 8 and 9 of the 12-pin
receptacle):
For more information about the 12-pin connector and the power and I/O cables see Section 7.2 on
page 62, Section 7.3 on page 64, and Section 7.4 on page 65.
Voltage Outside of Specified Range Can Cause Damage
If the voltage of the power to the camera is greater than +30.0 VDC damage
to the camera can result. If the voltage is less than +11.3 VDC, the camera
may operate erratically.
CAUTION
An Incorrect Plug Can Damage the 12-pin Connector
The plug on the cable that you attach to the camera’s 12-pin connector must
have 12 pins. Use of a smaller plug, such as one with 10 pins or 8 pins, can
damage the pins in the camera’s 12-pin connector.
CAUTION
Voltage Significance
< +11.3 VDC The camera may operate erratically.
+12 to +24 VDC Recommended operating voltage; < 1 % ripple required. Make sure to use a power
supply that supplies power in this voltage range.
+30.0 VDC Absolute maximum; the camera may be damaged when the absolute maximum is
exceeded.
