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.
Dewesoft uses Smartek GigE 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 shou d be estab ished, especia y if using more than 1
camera!

2.2.2 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 DEWESoftTM.
Note: 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.

2.2.3 Connecting to existing DEWETRON systems
The DS-CAM-120c is also compatible to existing DEWETRON systems.
Please consider the system requirements:
see 1.1. System requirements
DEWETRON instrument must not have DI-ISO option (isolated inputs outputs)! In this case clocking is not
possible, only free-run (the CLK pin is not available on the connector).
Free-run operation (without clocking, for low framerates) is easy, just connect the camera to the GigE LAN port.
If you want to trigger the camera, you have to use a special cable for the trigger clock line. Usually every DEWETRON
instrument is equipped with a 37pin DSUB connector, please see DEWETRON manual for pinout, here for example is
the pinout for the Orion-1622-100 (see Reference List (b)).
Connect EXT_CLK1 (pin 17) to CLK of the Lemo 00 connector of the camera (pin 3, see 2.2.1).
Connect DGND (pin 37) to GND of the Lemo 00 connector (pin 4, see 2.2.1)
Set the pin EXT_CLK1 to “Video” in DEWESoft hardware setup

2.2.4 Connecting multiple cameras
Illustration : 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

Usually all the drivers come with the DEWESoft Fullinstaller, if you select the option “GigE camera
driver” during installation. To check if the drivers are installed, go to Settings → Hardware setup →
Video and see if the checkbox “GigE” is visible. If not, execute the fullinstaller again, select Modify

Connect the camera to the PC via Ethernet cable and Power Trigger-cable. See connection example
shown in 2.2.2.
The DS-CAM-88c 120c supports DHCP, so just set your computer's IP address to automatic and
wait until the IP is assigned. To test if the camera is working you can run Smartek GigEVisionClient.
By right-click on the camera you can also set IP to fix, if you prefer.

(CPU intensive)

DS-CAM-88c DS-CAM-120c Installation
For the “File types for storing” you can chose between:
“DVI”, which is uncompressed DEWESoft video format (takes a lot of disk space, ~35
Mbyte s camera @ 640x480 and 120fps, but no video size limit) – or
“AVI”, the live compression will take CPU power, performance depends on the used
computer; but we have experienced good results with the Xvid codec (uses multiple cores);
consider that AVI will stop recording after video file size reaches 2 GB!
“compress after measurement”: if you have a triggered measurement, you can use the
pause times to automatically compress a recorded video file after storing
For manual compression after the measurement set the appropriate compressor in “AVI file
type for compression”. We recommend the XVID codec. In Analysis mode you can then
manually select your datafile and click “AVI compress”.

GigE p ugin is not found in Dewesoft
Issue: In 2.7.0.0 driver Smarte does not run file hardlin to GigEVisionSDK_32bit_dll.bat during installation.
Solution: So it needs to be done manually; run CMD as Admin and run the file from the folder
\Program files\Smarte \GigeVisionSDK\bin\
When this is done, Dewesoft normally recognizes the GigE plugin.
Issue affects Win7&8 64 bit and will be fixed by Smarte driver 2.7.1.0
No picture shown, “No frames received” error:
If you receive the error “NO FRAMES RECEIVED”, check:
Is the Trigger cable connected?
Try decreasing the Shutter value
Check in hardware setup if the DEWESoft USB device is set to Master or Standalone
Disable Trigger in hardware setup and check if it’s working in free-run mode (cable problem?)

DS-CAM-88c DS-CAM-120c FAQ
Cameras not found in DEWESoft (yellow mark in GigEVisionClient):
Not able to use the cameras. Please wait a little bit (until IP is assigned). If that does not help, ensure the computers
network IP is set to automatic, as camera supports DHCP.
Illustration 19: IP address problem
See also Illustration 11 for a working example.
If the cameras are found, close GigEVisionClient and start DEWESoft.
Change I address of the camera
If you manually change the IP address, please close DEWESoft, start the GigEVisionClient, right-click on the camera and
select “Set IP to device”; use the same subnet as the computer, example:
PC: 192.168.1.100, Subnet 255.255.255.0
Camera: 192.168.1.101, Subnet 255.255.255.0
The IP is ok, if the cameras are found with a red mark (see Illustration above), close GigEVisionClient and start
DEWESoft.
GigEVision client does not start, error message when starting
You can get it working by doing the following: Check if the operating system of your computer is 32bit or 64bit.
Copy the 64-bit dll’s (otherwise take the onces from the 32bit directories) from
C:\Program Files\Smartek\GigEVisionSDK\bin\Win64
and
C:\Program Files\Smartek\GigEVisionSDK\GenICam\bin\Win64_x64
to
\Windows\system32 (respectively \Windows\SysWOW64)
Then start the GigEVisionClient from C:\Program Files\Smartek\GigEVisionSDK\bin\Win64
