Legal Notice.
For Customers in U.S.A.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated
in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the
interference at his own expense. You are cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this manual
could void your authority to operate this equipment. The shielded interface cable recommended in this manual must be used
with this equipment in order to comply with the limits for a computing device pursuant to Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC Rules.
For customers in Europe
This apparatus has been certified to meet or exceed the standards for CE compliance per the Council Directives. Pertinent
testing documentation is available for verification.
For customers in Canada
This apparatus complies with the Class B limits for radio noise emissions set out in the Radio Interference Regulations.
Pour utilisateurs au Canada
Cet appareil est conforme aux normes Classe B pour bruits radioélectriques, spécifiées dans le Règlement sur le brouillage
radioélectrique.
Life support applications
These products are not designed for use in life support appliances, devices, or systems where malfunction of these products can
reasonably be expected to result in personal injury. Allied customers using or selling these products for use in such applications
do so at their own risk and agree to fully indemnify allied for any damages resulting from such improper use or sale.
Before You Start
This manual should help you in the installation and setting up of the camera; and we recommend that you carefully follow the
instructions described. To ensure that your warranty remains valid, please read the manual carefully before using the camera.
DO NOT disassemble, modify or repair the camera. There are no user serviceable parts inside and disassembling the camera
may void the warranty. For prevention of fire or electric shock, DO NOT removes screws or covers from the camera.
Operation in a wet environment is NOT recommended and the camera SHOULD NOT be exposed to rain or moisture.
For prolong life and the protection of the camera’s CCD, do not point the camera directly at the sun or a strong spotlight which
may result in CCD blooming and permanent damage.
DO NOT operate the camera beyond the operation temperature range stated and AVOID usage in conditions exceeding 90%
humidity.
DO NOT use an unregulated power supply source to prevent damage to the camera’s circuits.
Use soft materials such as lens tissue or cotton tipped applicator with ethanol for CCD faceplate cleaning ONLY when necessary
and AVOID contact with fingers or any hard object. Do not use solvent, abrasives or detergent when cleaning the camera body.
Warranty shall be voided for improper use of the camera or fault caused by the user or damage caused by other equipment due
to negligence
Warranty
IMI TECH warrants the original components free of defects for one year from purchase date. This warranty covers failures and
damage due to defect, which may occur during normal use. It does not cover damages or failure resulting from mishandling,
abuse, misuse or modification. An RMA number must be obtained in advance for every repair or replacement.

1. Introduction
1.1. Overview
IMI’s Amazon Family of cameras is compliant with the GigE Vision standard and supports Genicam Standard. Fairly
new in the image processing industry, GigE is gaining more interest thanks to users who are familiar with the
Ethernet interface and technology. This new interface is expected to lift the barriers of bandwidth limitation found in
other interfaces such as FireWire and USB 2.0. It also resolves the limitation of cable length by supporting 100
meter distance with conventional CAT-5 cable. The new GigE vision cameras are not only expected for applications
in the traditional Machine Vision applications; but its application may be stretched to intelligent traffic systems,
medical imaging, high-tech security and more. As GigE is a relatively new standard, we expect more and more
customers to demand new and additional feature support. We also expect a growing desire for software
interoperability due to GigE’s excellent network interface capability.
A large selection of cameras is available and additional cameras are scheduled to be added to the Amazon Series
as well. These will consist of various sensor sizes (1/2”, 2/3” 1/3”, 1/1.8”) and resolution (VGA, XGA, SXGA, UXGA)
both in color and black and white. The Amazon Series consist of the following models.

User Manual
AMAZON SERIES’ unique features include a lookup table and external trigger mode 0, 1, 2, 4, 5 plus 12, 13, 15,
one-shot and multi-shot, a wide range of shutter speeds (1us~3600s), partial scan, and binning modes (2x2 for
B&W). All of these features provide maximum flexibility for a wide variety of applications. AMAZON SERIES
input signals are isolated optically to ensure quality images acquisition without the risk of noise degrading the input
signal. Industrial screw lock cable support has been added for more reliable connectivity. AMAZON SERIES‘s
firmware can be upgraded via GigE and the latest versions are available through our website together with IMI’s
SDK and demo applications.

Camera Connection
2. Basic Installation
The Amazon series operates in connection with a PC that is running an operation system such as MS Windows.
Basic installation starts by installing the driver, connecting the camera and loading the demo application software.
Please refer to the demo application software manual for details.
2.1. Recommended System Requirement
Remark: Other software or hardware may be required for user specific applications.
2.2. Hardware Installation
Basic camera installation is a very simple 3 step process as follows. ( Also check the figure below. )
Step 1. Locate the Gigabit Ethernet port on the computer.
(Note : Some computers would require the installation of a PCI/ PCI express Gigabit Ethernet interface. ).
Step 2. Plug one end of the GigE cable into the camera; and the other end of the cable into the computer’s Gigabit
Ethernet port.
