Camera Connections
The Genie cameras offer a range of resolutions from 640x480 pixels up to 1600x1200. DALSA
offers cameras for use with our vision systems, some of which are referenced below. The Genie
camera manuals are installed on the hard drive with the Genie drivers, and are available from the
Windows Start menu.
The camera interface supports:
Progressive scan digital GigE (Gigabit Ethernet) cameras with standard or double-speed capa-
bilities. Sherlock and iNspect support asynchronous camera acquisition.
The RJ45 connectors can be connected to multiple cameras using external GigE switches.

Sherlock has no limit on the number of cameras supported.
iNspect “Standard” license supports up to 4 cameras. iNspect “Extended” license supports up
to 8 cameras.
The hardware design does not limit how multiple cameras are connected. To improve data
throughput, it is recommended multiple cameras be connected using both connectors, but the
design does not require it.
