AW00118508000 Specifications, Requirements, and Precautions
Basler racer Camera Link 24
NOTICE
Applying incorrect power can severely damage the camera.
If you supply camera power as Power over Camera Link (PoCL; 2k and 4k cameras only):
You must supply camera power in accordance with the Power over Camera Link (PoCL)
specifications in the Camera Link standard.
You must use a PoCL compliant frame grabber.
You must use Camera Link cables that are specifically designed for PoCL as specified in
the Camera Link standard.
If you supply camera power via the 6-pin receptacle:
You must supply camera power with the correct voltage: The camera‘s required operating
voltage is +12 VDC (-10 %) to +24 VDC (+5 %), < 1 % ripple, effective on the camera‘s
connector, with a nominal operating voltage of +12 VDC (±10 %).
You must supply camera power with the correct polarity.
You must avoid a voltage drop: If you supply camera power via a long cable a voltage
drop can occur. Basler recommends that you provide +12 VDC to +24 VDC separately
through the wires connecting to pins 1 and 2 of the receptacle. We also recommend that
you provide ground separately to the wires connecting to pins 5 and 6.
NOTICE
Making or breaking Camera Link connections incorrectly can severely damage the camera.
If you supply power to the camera via the Camera Link connection (PoCL; 2k and 4k
cameras only), be sure that the power to the camera and to the frame grabber in your
computer is switched off before you connect or disconnect the Camera Link cables.
If you supply power to the camera via the 6-pin connector, switch off the power to the
connector before you connect or disconnect the Camera Link cables.
If you can’t switch off the power, be sure that:
The plug for the 6-pin connector is the last plug that you plug into the camera when
making connections.
The plug for the 6-pin connector is the first plug that you unplug from the camera when
breaking connections.
NOTICE
Incorrect plugs can damage the camera’s connectors.
The plug on the cable that you attach to the camera’s 6-pin connector must have 6 female pins.
