TECHNICAL REFERENCE MANUAL
3. Key features
The DS-CAM-88c/DS-CAM-120c/DS-CAM-175c/DS-CAM-320c are a high-speed Gigabit-Ethernet cameras
with following key data:
●DS-CAM-88c: 88 fps @ VGA (640x480)
●DS-CAM-120c: 120 fps @ VGA (640x480)
●DS-CAM-175c: 178 fps @ VGA (640x480)
●DS-CAM-320c: 328 fps @ VGA (640x480)
●Color
●Auto-gain
●Auto-shutter (also fixed shutter possible)
●Auto-white balance
●Triggered and free-run mode
●Standard C-Mount
●Small compact form factor
●Low power consumption
●Ruggedized (high-shock and vibration resistant, aluminium housing)
●Real-time data streaming with full resolution
The camera supports the high-performance industrial standard “GigE Vision”. The standard introduced
in 2006 provides a framework for transmitting high-speed video and related control over Ethernet
networks.
The benefits are: high speed data transfer rates up to 1GBit/s (based on 1000Base-T) connectible to every
standard GigE Ethernet port and cable lengths up to 100m.
DewesoftX® uses OptoStream SDK for communication with cameras that support GigE Vision standard.
Important
For best performance we recommended using a SSD for storing data. A disk write rate of 100
MByte/s should be established, especially if using more than 1 camera.
3.1. System Requirements
●1 Gigabit-Ethernet port
●High-performance PC (Core i5 CPU or better recommended, 4 GB RAM and high performance
SSD storage disc)
●DewesoftX®
●The latest OptoStream SDK
●Dewesoft GigE driver (cdv)

TECHNICAL REFERENCE MANUAL
4.3.2. SIRIUS® connection example
In this picture you see a typical SIRIUS measurement instrument, consisting of one SBOX unit
(integrated PC) on bottom and one SIRIUS slice on top (from rear side).
The camera is directly connected to the Gigabit-LAN port. The second cable to the camera contains the
power (from SBOX Power out) and the trigger, connected to the SYNC port of the SIRIUS slice. The
camera frames are now in perfect sync with the analog data acquired by DewesoftX®.
Hint
Even if the camera is connected, synching to other SIRIUS devices is still possible, because
there are different pins used on the SYNC port for triggering/synching.

Illustration 7: CAM-BOX2
If you need to connect more than one camera, there is a special “CAM-BOX2” available, which consists of
●wide-range voltage input (9-36V)
●an industrial Gigabit-Ethernet-Switch (without Power-over-Ethernet! No supply for
DS-CAM-600!)
●Power and Sync distribution for up to 4 cameras.
●Small dimensions: 115 x 62 mm (front) and 135 mm deep

Important
Maximum of one camera is permissible to connect due to power limitation of DEWE-43A.
Illustration 11: DS-CAM, CAM-BOX1 for power supply and synchronization. Expanding up to four cameras. Ethernet data cable is
wired directly to the network card of the PC.
Important
If you use more than one camera use an external power supply (PS-200-L2B3f)
for CAM-BOX1.

4.3. Benchmarks
The following tests were done with SIRIUS SBOX and 1 to 4 cameras connected to the CAM-BOX2. Setup:
●1 to 4 cameras connected over CAM-BOX2
●SBOX: 128GB SSD -> max 190 MByte/s write rate
●CPU: Intel Core i7 QM57; 2.0GHz; 4GB RAM
●camera(s) clocked by SIRIUS
●Dewesoft X1 SP7 b358 GigEVisionSDK Version 2.7.0.1
●GigE Camera driver v3.5 (Plugin)
●storing data to file, video buffer stable around 0..1%
●with checked "optimize for switched network"

Hint
Results (FPS) should be considered only as approximate MAX values. Writing speed of the disk
may be a limiting factor (we used SSD!). We recommend to test cameras with your setup at
about 0.8*max_FPS and higher to find where corrupted image, frame lost or buffer overrun will
occur.
5. Installation
5.1. DewesoftX® full installer
For DewesoftX® all the drivers come with the full installer, if you select the option “GigE camera driver”
during installation. To check if the drivers are installed, go to Options → Installed extensions and see if the
checkbox “GigE” is visible. If not, execute the full installer again, choose the Modify option and enable
the checkbox of GigE camera.
