2 Handling Precautions and Camera Care

Warning! Do not open the camera housing. Doing so voids the

Hardware Warranty described in the Terms and Conditions on our

website.

Your Teledyne FLIR machine vision camera is a precisely manufactured device and should be handled with care. Here

are some tips on how to care for the device.

nAvoid electrostatic charging.

nWhen handling the camera unit, avoid touching the lenses. Fingerprints will affect the quality of the image

produced by the device.

nTo clean the lenses, use a standard camera lens cleaning kit or a clean dry cotton cloth. Do not apply excessive

force.

nExtended exposure to bright sunlight, rain, dusty environments, etc. may cause problems with the electronics

and the optics of the system.

nAvoid excessive shaking, dropping or any kind of mishandling of the device.

3.2 Installing your Interface Card and Software

1. Install your Interface Card

Ensure the card is installed per the manufacturer's instructions.

Connect the internal IDE or SATApower connector on the card to the computer power supply.

Alternatively, use your PC's built-in host controller, if equipped.

Open the Windows Device Manager. Ensure the card is properly installed. Ethernet cards appear under Network

Adapters. An exclamation point (!) next to the card indicates the driver has not yet been installed.

Configure the network adapter to use 5G Full Duplex.

a. Update the driver to the latest to access the 5GFull Duplex option.

b. In Windows go to Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections, right-click on your network

adapter and select Properties.

c. Click Configure.

d. On the Advanced tab, from the Property box select Speed &Duplex and from the Value drop-down select

5Gbps Full Duplex.

e. Click OK.

On the Advanced tab, if not already enabled, set the Jumbo Packet to 9014 Bytes.

2. Install the Spinnaker® Software

Note: For existing users who already have Spinnaker installed, we

recommend ensuring you have the latest version for optimal

performance of your camera. If you do not need to install

Spinnaker, use SpinView to install and enable drivers for your card.

Forge requires Spinnaker version 3.0 or later.

a. Go to the Spinnaker SDK page.

b. Click the Download button. You are prompted to login, if not already.

c. Select your operating system. Depending on your selection there may be other versions to select.

d. After download is complete, open the file to start the Spinnaker setup wizard.

e. Follow the steps in each setup dialog.

3. Optimize the settings of your Ethernet card

a. In Start->All Programs-> Spinnaker SDK->SpinView, right click on the Network Adapter and select Adapter

Configuration. The Adapter Config Utility lists your network adapters and allows you to access the following:

nAdapter IP address

nSubnet mask

nDefault gateway

nReceive buffers

nTransmit buffers

nJumbo packets

Note: See How to Optimize GigENetwork Adapter Settings for more

information on configuring for best performance.

3.3 Installing your Forge 5GigE

1. Attach a Lens

Unscrew the dust cap from the lens holder to install a lens.

2. Connect the interface Card and Cable to the Camera

Plug the interface cable into the host controller card and the camera. The cable jack screws can be used for a secure

connection. If using PoE, connect a powered Ethernet switch or Ethernet power injector in between the card and the

camera.

When the camera is first connected, the operating system automatically installs the camera driver. Camera drivers are

available with the Spinnaker SDK installation.

3. Plug in the GPIO connector

GPIOis used for power, trigger, serial input output, and strobe.

4. Confirm Successful Installation

Run the SpinView application: Start->All Programs-> Spinnaker->SpinView

The SpinView application can be used to test the camera's image acquisition capabilities and make changes to the

camera's installation configuration.

5. Configure IPSettings if necessary

By default, a dynamic IPaddress is assigned to the camera according to the DHCP protocol. If DHCP addressing fails, a

link-local address is assigned. If necessary, in SpinView change the IPaddress of the camera to be on the same subnet

as the NIC.

3.4 Powering your Forge 5GigE

Power can be provided over the Ethernet interface (PoE). To use PoE, you must also have a powered Ethernet card, a

powered Ethernet switch, or an Ethernet power injector.

Power can also be provided externally through the GPIO interface: 12 V nominal (8 - 24 V). Power consumption is 7 W

maximum.

1/18/2023

Teledyne FLIR Forge®Installation Guide 5

3 Forge 5GigE Installation

If both power sources are connected the camera always uses external power over the GPIO connector.

The camera does not transmit images for the first 100 ms after power-up. The auto-exposure and auto-white balance

algorithms do not run while the camera is powered down. It may therefore take several images to get a satisfactory

image.

When the camera is power cycled (power disengaged then re- engaged), the camera reverts to its default factory

settings, or if applicable, a saved user set.
