Humidity* 20 % … 100 %, relative, non-condensing * Only if GigE uEye FA lens tube and IP65/67 cables are used Non-condensing means that the relative air humidity must be below 100 %. Otherwise, moisture will form on the camera surface. If, for example, air has a relative humidity of 40 % at 35 °C (95 °F), the relative humidity will increase to over 100 % if the air cools down to 19.5 °C (67 °F);...
Depending on the sensor model, the camera performance may be limited with the minimum system requirements. 5.3 Connecting a GigE uEye FA Check the power supply to the camera. Connect the camera to to a Gigabit Ethernet port on the PC either directly or using switches.
Therefore, first unplug the GigE and/or I/O cable from the camera. Note on the IP 65/67 standards The GigE uEye FA housing version is IP 65/67 compliant. The following requirements must be met for conformance to the IP 65/67 standards: ·...
Technical Manual: GigE uEye FA 7 Optical specifications · Immersion depth for lenses · Position accuracy of the sensor 7.1 Immersion depth for lenses Some C-mount lenses reach deep into the camera flange. This may cause the lens to push against the back of the filter glass inside the camera or even make it impossible to screw in the lens.
Technical Manual: GigE uEye FA 7.2 Position accuracy of the sensor The following illustrations show the tolerance margins of the sensor position relative to the outer camera housing. A maximum error in all directions (rotation, translation) cannot occur at the same time.
