Make sure the  24  volt  power supply is switched OFF. Connect the supplied power 
cable to the 24 volt power supply. On the unterminated end of the cable you will find 
two  wires  one  black  and  one  with  a  red  sheath  on  it.  The  black  wire  should  be 
connected  to  the  negative  terminal  on  the  power  supply.  The  cable  with  the  red 
sheath should be connected to the positive terminal on the power supply.  The green 
and yellow cable should be connected to a ground reference. 

 

WARNING

 - Make sure the power supply is not powered before 

connecting the cables. 

 

 

4.

 

Connect  the  power  supply  cable  to  the  corresponding  plug  on  the  REV25  system. 
Ensure  the  correct  orientation  by  aligning  the  polarisation  keys  on  the  panel 
connector and the plug.  If forced in the incorrect orientation, damage to the system 
is likely to result. Refer to Section 3.2.2 - Power for further details.  

5.

 

If  your  REV25  Vision  System  was  ordered  complete  with  an  Allied  Vision 
Technologies  camera  then  your  system  should  be  ready  to  use.  For  adjusting  the 
Focus and Aperture of your camera see Section 3.5.3 - Camera Focus and Aperture. 
Otherwise follow steps a) to i) to install your chosen camera. 

a)

 

Open  the  system  enclosure  by  removing  the  eight  countersunk  socket  screws 
from the base. 

b)

 

Connect the chosen GigE camera to the C-mount thread on the end of the REV25 
unit.  A  universal  camera  mount  to  suit  all  Allied  Vision  Technologies  cameras 
recommended for use with the REV25 Vision product is supplied with the REV25 
Vision System. If a different camera is chosen and it can’t be used with the mount 
provided then alternative mounting arrangements should be provided. 

DO NOT

 

allow the camera to be unsupported on the camera lens.  

c)

 

The camera lens should be rotated on the filter thread where it attaches to the 
REV25 by the minimum amount required to align the body of the camera to one 
of the two possible camera mount positions shown in Figure 3.12. 

d)

 

Remove  two  socket  head  screws  in  the  base  of  the  REV25  body  in  the  chosen 
position for the attachment of the camera mount (

DO NOT

 have any more than 

two screws removed from the base of the REV25 at any time). Place the camera 
mount  in  position  and  replace  the  socket  screws  but  do  not  tighten  until  the 
mount is attached to the camera.
