NThe still image output format (RGBHV or RGBS) must be configured using the front panel controls or a Simple Instruction Set™ (SIS™) command. The output format applies only to the output of still images stored in the GSS; the RGB Pass-through video is output exactly as it is input.

Remote connections

D

LAN port — Connect the GSS to a PC or to an Ethernet LAN,

 

via this RJ-45 connector. You can use the GSS’s embedded

 

HTML pages to upload still images from the PC to the GSS and

 

to control the GSS. You can also use a PC to control the GSS

 

with SIS commands.

Cabling and RJ-45 connector wiring

It is vital that your Ethernet cables be the correct cables, and that they be properly terminated with the correct pinout. Ethernet links use Category (CAT) 5e or CAT 6, unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables, terminated with RJ-45 connectors. Ethernet cables are limited to a length of 328’ (100 m).

NDo not use standard telephone cables. Telephone cables will not support Ethernet or Fast Ethernet.

Do not stretch or bend cables. Transmission errors can occur.

The cable used depends on your network speed. The GSS supports both 10 MBps (10Base-T — Ethernet) and 100 MBps (100Base-T — Fast Ethernet), half-duplex and full-duplex Ethernet connections.

10Base-T Ethernet requires CAT 3 UTP or STP cable at minimum.

100Base-T Fast Ethernet requires CAT 5e UTP or STP cable at minimum.

The Ethernet cable can be terminated as a straight-through cable or a crossover cable and must be properly terminated for your application (figure 2-4).

Crossover cable — Direct connection between the computer and the GSS 100.

Patch (straight) cable — Connection of the GSS 100 to an Ethernet LAN.
