6.1 Essentials to get started
To begin using your JetCam system, you must have the following:
A computer with the following:
Processor with an Intel 64-bit architecture, or equivalent.
An availably x4 (or x8 or x16) PCIe slot. Gen 3 support is recommended for faster
data transfer.
Vision Point Application installation
JetCam camera
Komodo Fiber board
Fiber QSFP+ Modules
Fiber optic cable
NOTE: KAYA Instruments doesn’t guarantee compatibility with all computers that have the above
specifications. Please, consult KAYA representative for any specific issue.
6.2 Installation instructions
The typical JetCam system is connected as described in Figure 2:
Komodo Fiber
Frame Grabber
JetCam Camera Fiber cable
(up to 10 km)
Power
supply
Figure 2 : JetCam Camera system connection diagram
6Installation and Configurations

High Speed Camera User Guide
16
The first stage of the system installation is Komodo board installation as described in section 6.2.1
below. The second stage is connection of the camera as described in section 6.2.2.
6.2.1 Komodo board installation
Before system installation the Komodo board should be installed into the host computer. Komodo
board is standard PCIe card with 8 lanes connector.
It can be installed in any PCIe connector of the motherboard with 8 lanes and up.
Note: Board should be installed before you install your software.
1. Before installing, turn off the power of the computer and its peripherals.
2. Firmly insert the Komodo board to PCIe connector of the motherboard.
3. Anchor the PCIe bracket to the computer chassis using M3 screw.
4. Verify the Komodo board inserted correctly to the PCIe slot.
5. Power up the computer.
6. After OS is up, you will be asked to install a driver for new Multimedia Device.
At this stage, you should cancel the installation.
Under Windows and Linux the compatible drivers for Komodo board will be installed during
installation of Vision Point App software.
You can install and use multiple Komodo boards in a single computer.
The number of Komodo boards that can be installed in a computer depends on the number of
available PCIe slots.
For more information please refer to Vision Point Software Installation Guide documentation.
6.2.2 Completing the JetCam installation
In order to properly complete the JetCam system installation, the following steps must be taken for
initial power up:
a. Make sure there is no dirt or any other foreign matter inside the QSFP+ module, or blocking
any of the connectors.
b. Make sure that the male connectors on the QSFP+ module will align with the female
connectors inside the cage.
c. Insert the QSFP+ modules into the JetCam Camera and Komodo Fiber board and close the
locking mechanism (*).
Installation and Configuration

High Speed Camera User Guide
17
d. Connect the fiber cables as described in Figure 2.
Connect the Power Adaptor to the JetCam power supply connector. The JetCam requires 12V
power supply for proper function for camera. Please, refer section 7.1.2 of this document for
exact Power Supply requirements.
e. Turn on the camera and the frame grabber on and start your application software.
The system supports the following QSFP+ modules:

NOTE:
To remove the QSFP+ module, first remove the fiber cable connected to it, then gently pull the QSFP+
module’s locking mechanism (see Figure 3 and Figure 4) and remove module.
Please contact KAYA representative for details of those options.

NOTES:
1. A fiber cable should match the QSFP+ type. If a single mode QSFP+ is used a single mode
fiber (yellow) should be used with it. If a multi-mode QSFP is used a multi-mode fiber
(orange) should be used.
2. The Fiber cable is connected between TX output (marked with TX or Arrow outwards the
QSFP+) on JetCam unit and RX input (marked with RX or Arrow inwards the QSFP+) on
Komodo Fiber frame grabber.
3. If more than a single cable is used to connect to the same Frame Grabber, the cables must be
of the same type and length.

7.1 JetCam unit Hardware Reference
This section provides information on JetCam camera unit hardware. It covers architecture, features
and pin assignments for various connectors.
7.1.1 JetCam unit LEDs
The JetCam unit has several status LEDs, as seen in Figure 6.
Link Status LEDs
System

Figure 6 : JetCam camera status LEDs
The System status LED, located on the back, always slow pulses in green while the system is ON.
While in firmware update mode, this LED slow pulses orange. In any case of system failure, the
LED will constantly light orange.
