Configuring the TM-4200GE Camera
3 Configuring the TM-4200GE Camera
The configuration of the GigE camera consists of two parts:
• The imager configuration (CCD and control circuits)
• The internal framegrabber configuration
The imager can be configured for partial scan, binning, and so on, just like a Camera Link camera. The
internal framegrabber is automatically configured for the pixel type, windowing, image size, I/O and so
on, by the GigE camera software.
3.1 Setup
If you have a peer-to-peer connection between the TM-4200GE camera and your PC without network
switches, your packet size can be the default value (8128 bytes) as shown in Figure 7. However, if you
are connecting the TM-4200GE to your PC through a network switch, then you need to know the
maximum packet size that your network switch supports. Typically, if your switch supports jumbo
packets, then you should keep the packet size to 8128 bytes. If your switch does not support jumbo
packets, then you may need to change the packet size to 1440 bytes.

Note: If you connect the
camera through a network
switch, you may need to
modify the packet size.
