IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH recommends to adjust the power supply to the power requirement
of the camera to limit overheating in case of short circuit. To ensure electrical safety, the power supply must
meet the requirements for SELV (safety extra low voltage)/LPS (limited power source) or ES1/PS2.
Avis pour le Canada:
IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH recommande d'adapter l'alimentation électrique aux besoins de
la caméra afin de limiter la surchauffe en cas de court-circuit. Pour garantir la sécurité électrique,
l'alimentation doit être conforme aux exigences de sécurité SELV (très basse tension de sécurité)/LPS
(source à puissance limitée) ou ES1/PS2.
Information on the power consumption of individual camera models can be found in the model data sheet.
NOTICE!
The camera can be supplied with voltage both from an external source and via
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE). The camera should not be supplied through both voltage sources
at once as this can irreparably damage the camera.
Keep in mind that a voltage drop will occur when you use long cables for power supply to the
camera. Choose the size of the cable in such a way that the supply voltage available at the
input of the camera is at least 12 V.
To supply the GigE uEye CP Rev. 2 camera with power using PoE or PoE+, you can use
PoE injectors or switches that are compatible with IEEE standard 802.3af or IEEE standard
802.at.
The cameras register to the PoE class 2 (3.84-6.49 W). Depending on the operating mode, a
camera can also consume less than 3.84 W.

For interpreting the trigger signal, either the rising or the falling edge can be used. The digital input is
galvanically isolated using an optocoupler to protect the camera and the PC against surges. Only DC voltages
may be applied to the digital input.
