Connecting the Ethernet Cable
CAUTION: The Ethernet cable shield has to be grounded at the far end. If the far end device is not grounded, add a ground wire in compliance with local electrical codes. The cable is typically plugged into a switch or router, which has to have a grounded Ethernet connector. Use a digital voltmeter to validate the grounding.
-
Connect the M12 connector of the Ethernet cable to the vision system ENET connector.
-
Connect the RJ-45 connector of the Ethernet cable to a switch/router or PC, as applicable.
Note: Besides powering the vision system through a Breakout Cable, it is possible to power through PoE (Power over Ethernet) connection as well, in which case it is not necessary to use a Breakout Cable.
