2. The camera is equipped with a standard C-mount lens mount. To achieve the IP65/67
rating, a protective IP tube must be used. You may use any C-mount lens that fits into
the IP tube. A 10 mm IP tube extension for longer lenses also is available as an
accessory. Nonetheless, IP tubes are optional.

PC Configuration
Hardware: 10GigE Network Interface Card (NIC)
5. Look for a package for the 10GigE NIC. The package looks as in Figure 4. Have this on a
side.
Figure 5:- 1-port PCIe 10GBase – T/NBase-T Ethernet Netork Card.
6. Disassemble one of the covers that houses your CPU. For this you will need a screw
driver. Refer to Figure 5 below.
Disconnect power cord from CPU housing. Do not work on the CPU while it is
running.

Driver
9. To install the driver, please insert the disc shown in Figure 8. If for some reason the disc
installation is not a viable option, be sure to refer to this link’s website installation to
install the driver.
Figure 9: Driver that comes with the package.
10. Once driver in, accept terms and click next through windows. When prompted, restart
your computer.
11. Now you are ready.

OS – Configuration
12. Open the Network and Sharing Center following this directory: Control Panel\Network
and Internet\Network and Sharing Center
13. Click Change adapter settings.
14. Right-click the NIC for which you want to enable jumbo frames and select Properties.
15. Under the Networking tab, click the Configure button for the network adapter.
16. Select the Advanced tab.
17. Select Jumbo Frame and change the value from disabled to the desired value, such as
9kB MTU or 9,014 Bytes, depending on the NIC.
18. Click OK to all dialogs.
Notes
These steps are crucial for the system to work properly. Failure to follow these will cause the
camera to not communicate with the CPU. This can cost a lot of downtime.
Software Installation
19. To install the software please click this link, Industrial 10 GigE Vision Camera, to
download the drivers.
Tutorial – ROI Manipulation
Objective:
In this tutorial we will show how to manipulate the Region of Interest within the software.
Doing so can enhance frames per second consistency when camera is live.

1. Once software installed (refer to previous section on this manual for software
installation), you will find an icon of the software on your desktop. Refer to Figure 9.
Click on it.
2. Then you will see the software interface window pop up. There focus in the Discovery
and Device panes; shown in Figure 10. In the Discovery pane click refresh until you see
your camera show up as it shows in Figure 10. Then double click the camera of interest.

3. Now you will notice that within the Device pane, both Configuration and Features will
get enabled.
4. Then on the right window hit the Start button to start capturing live images. For this
example, I am looking at base piece in our lab. Refer to Figure 11 for more detail.
