Software Introduction
TM-4100GE Software
Point-to-point (unswitched) transmission is up to 100 meters. With Gigabit Ethernet switches, the
transmission distance is virtually unlimited.
Note:
Refer to the section on time-outs and packets in the
Cam2Net User’s Manual
for more
information on packet sizes for point-to-point and networked applications.
Communication with a GigE camera is completely transparent to the user, so if you are used to working
with Camera Link® or the JAI Cam2Net adapter, you will find it very easy to migrate.
The TM-4100GE camera has internal frame memory, which sends only the actual image data using the
Gigabit Ethernet interface.
At the PC, the
Cam2Net Software Development Kit (SDK)
provides a communications interface that
maps the RS-232 command channel through the IP link. All commands sent to and received from the
camera are transparently routed to/from the host PC via the GigE link.
Refer to the
Cam2Net User’s Manual
for details about network requirements, compatibility, and so on.
