MANTA GigE cameras

Manta Manta cameras have a Gigabit Ethernet interface.

GigE GigE is the abbreviation for Gigabit Ethernet.

All AVT Manta cameras are GigE Vision compliant cameras with Gigabit Ethernet
interface. AVT Manta cameras work with standard Gigabit Ethernet hardware
and cables and have cable lengths up to 100 m, using conventional network
cabling.

GigE Vision The GigE Vision standard is an interface standard for digital machine vision

cameras widely supported in the industrial imaging industry. G. In contrast,

GigE (Gigabit Ethernet) is just the network GigE Vision is built on.

GenICam GenICam is the command structure for the GigE Vision camera control. GenICam

is administered by the European Machine Vision Association (EMVA).
GenICam establishes a common camera control interface so that third-party
software can communicate with cameras from various manufacturers without
customization. It is incorporated as part of the GigE Vision standard.

Spectral sensitivity

Note



All measurements were done without protection glass /
without filter.

The uncertainty in measurement of the QE values is 10%.

This is due to:

• Manufacturing tolerance of the sensor

• Uncertainties in the measuring apparatus itself
(Ulbricht-Kugel/Ulbricht sphere, optometer, etc.)

The measurements for Manta G-145B NIR in Figure 14/15 were
done with a different method to illustrate the effect of the NIR
mode.

Gigabit Ethernet port

The Gigabit Ethernet port conforms to the IEEE 802.3 1000BASE-T standard for
Gigabit Ethernet over copper. We recommend using Category 5e or Category 6
compatible cabling and connectors for best performance.

Note



• Cable lengths up to 100 m are supported.

• The 8-pin RJ-45 jack has the pin assignment according to
the Ethernet standard (IEEE 802.3 1000BASE-T).

• For cameras that are PoE capable, the GigE connector can
be used to provide power to the camera.

•Manta PoE models can source power
– from 802.3af (1000 MBit/s) and
– from 802.3at compliant PSE devices (Power Sourcing

Equipment): such as switches injectors or NICs.

• If both interfaces are used for power (I/O and GigE con­nector via PoE), the camera will only use the power from
the I/O connector.

Same main board for all Manta models

From serial number 503323258 on all Manta models incl. PoE
and board level versions contain the same main board.

PoE and non PoE

• How can I distinguish between PoE capable cameras and
cameras that are not PoE capable?

– PoE capable cameras have the letters PoE written on

the camera‘s label on the back side and the bottom
side of the camera.

Accessories

• Cables are available from AVT:

Video iris output description

Manta cameras provide built-in video type auto-iris controls.

Caution



Damage to the lens

The following schematic uses CAMERA POWER to power the
video iris lens and assumes CAMERA POWER = 12 V. Most video
iris lenses operate at a 8–16 V input voltage. Therefore, this
circuit is not appropriate if using a 24 V camera power supply.
Doing so may irreparably damage your lens. Please consult
your video iris lens specifications for the appropriate drive
voltage.

Control signals

The inputs and outputs of the camera can be configured by software. The differ­ent modes are described below.

Inputs

Input/output pin control

All input and output signals running over the camera I/O connector are con­trolled by the I/O strobe commands. See AVT Manta Camera Controls.

Outputs

Output features are configured by software. Any signal can be placed on any
output. The main features of output signals are described below:

Signal Description

GPO Configured to be a general purpose output, control of which is

assigned to SyncOutGpoLevels

AcquisitionTriggerReady Active once the camera has been recognized by the host PC and is

ready to start acquisition.

FrameTriggerReady Active when the camera is in a state that will accept the next

frame trigger.

FrameTrigger Active when an image has been initiated to start. This is a logic

trigger internal to the camera, which is initiated by an external
trigger or software trigger event.

Exposing Exposing – active for the duration of sensor exposure.

FrameReadout Active at during frame readout, i.e. the transferring of image

data from the CCD to camera memory.

Imaging Imaging is high when the camera image sensor is either exposing

and/or reading out data.

Acquiring Active during an acquisition stream.

SyncIn1 Active when there is an external trigger at SyncIn1

SyncIn2 Active when there is an external trigger at SyncIn2

Strobe1 The output signal is controlled according to Strobe1 settings.
