Connecting to the computer

  1. Plug the power supply first into the “24V”.

  2. Plug the Ethernet cable into the camera and connect it to your computer.

  3. Plug the power supply into a power outlet.

Note

On disconnect, follow the procedure in reverse, disconnect mains power first.
Ensure that all connections are screwed in tightly. The coupling nut of the M12 screw connectors can in some cases be hard do screw in. However, when installed correctly they provide a robust and reliable connection.
Check System Requirements for performance considerations and review performance by observing the status Indication LEDs.

Use the AC/DC adapter supplied with the unit to ensure compliance with emission and immunity standards.

The Zivid camera is protected against reverse polarity and against overheating by a thermistor that physically removes the power.

The Zivid Two camera uses Ethernet communication and needs 10 Gbps for best performance. Your computer may not have a port for 10 Gigabit Ethernet. In that case, you can connect to it using an adaptor for 10GBASE-T (10 Gbps copper Ethernet) to Thunderbolt 3. At a reduced performance you can also use 1000BASE-T and NBASE-T (1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, and 5 Gbps over copper) to USB adapters.

Recommended network cards and adapters :color: light

We have successfully tested and recommend the following hardware:

Caution

USB-based network adapters have reduced and more variable capture speed, and can occasionally give errors when using the camera. Our recommendation is to use 10Gb PCI Express cards for optimal performance.

Warning

Use only Zivid approved Ethernet cables.

Network Topology

Zivid Two supports the following network topologies:

Direct connection

Connection via switch

Note

Multiple Zivid Two camera support added in 2.4 SDK.

Continue to Software Installation where you will also find Network Configuration.

  1. Plug the power supply first into the “24V”.

  2. Plug the Ethernet cable into the camera and connect it to your computer.

  3. Plug the power supply into a power outlet.

Note

On disconnect, follow the procedure in reverse, disconnect mains power first.
Ensure that all connections are screwed in tightly.

Use the AC/DC adapter supplied with the unit to ensure compliance with emission and immunity standards.

The Zivid camera is protected against reverse polarity and against overheating by a thermistor that physically removes the power.

Caution

Using a direct cable from the PC to the Zivid camera works better than connecting the camera via a USB hub.
Use only Zivid approved cables and extenders.
