REFERENCES REFERENCES CONVENTIONS This manual uses the following conventions: "User" refers to anyone using an A30 camera. "Camera" refers to an A30 camera. "You" refers to the System Administrator or Technical Support person using this manual to install, configure, operate, maintain, or troubleshoot an A30 camera. REFERENCE DOCUMENTATION For further details refer to the Impact Reference Guide provided as supplementary documentation on the installation CD.
COMPLIANCE COMPLIANCE For installation, use, and maintenance, it is not necessary to open the camera. Opening the camera will void the warranty. Connect Ethernet and dataport connections to a network which has routing only within the plant or building and no routing outside the plant or building.

A lens must be used. A strobe or other external illuminator may be required.
A30 QUICKSTART GUIDE Lens Spacer (optional) Protective Film (remove before calibration) Lens Camera Lens Cover Figure 1 – Assembling the Camera and Lens 4. To keep dust and dirt off of the lens during mounting, temporarily replace the lens cover. Connect the System In the typical standalone layout shown in the figure below, an EtherNet host is connected to the camera. The camera can use an external trigger to signal image acquisition.
INDICATORS AND KEYPAD BUTTON Use the PG-120 power Kit (3 versions for European, UK or US plug) and CAB-PG-0002 + BA400 connector to connect the PG-120 to the CBX. An alternative power supply to the PG120 is the PWR-120. CBX Connection • Use CAB-SCSxx between the A30 camera and the CBX for power, external trigger device (photocell), and additional I/O connections. Use the CAB-GE0x for the Gigabit Ethernet connection to the host.
A30 QUICKSTART GUIDE To Reset the Camera 1. Turn off power. 2. Press and hold the Camera Reset button. 3. Turn on power. 4. When all the LED indicators turn on and remain lit, release the Camera Reset button. 5. Wait approximately 30 seconds for the camera to restart. MECHANICAL DIMENSIONS The A30 can be installed to operate in different positions using the body mounting bracket shown in Figure 5. The twelve screw holes (M4) on the body of the camera can be used for custom mounting solutions.

A30 QUICKSTART GUIDE MOUNTING THE CAMERA Using the A30 mounting brackets, you can obtain rotation on the various axes of the camera as shown in the diagrams below.
CBX ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS CBX ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS All A30 cameras can be connected to a CBX500 connection box using a CAB-SCSxx accessory cable. These accessory cables terminate in a 19-pin connector on the camera side and in a 25pin male D-sub connector on the CBX side. We recommend making system connections through one of the CBX connection boxes since they offer the advantages of easy connection, easy device replacement, and filtered reference signals.
A30 QUICKSTART GUIDE NOTE To avoid electromagnetic interference when the camera is connected to a CBX connection box, verify the jumper positions in the CBX as indicated in its Installation Manual. POWER SUPPLY NOTE The A30 does not support sourcing power towards the CBX through the CBX "power from device" source jumper setting. Power must be supplied to the CBX as shown below.
INPUTS Figure 9 – RS232 Main Interface Connections Using Hardware Handshaking INPUTS There are two optocoupled polarity insensitive inputs available on the camera: Input 1 (Trigger) and Input 2, a generic input: The Trigger is used to trigger the camera so that it will acquire an image. Input 2 can be used as a signal to a software task to perform an action. The electrical features of both inputs are: VAB = 30 Vdc max. IIN = 10 mA (camera) + 12 mA (CBX) max.
A30 QUICKSTART GUIDE CAUTION Power is available directly to the Input Device, independently from the Power Supply Switch inside the CBX.

A30 QUICKSTART GUIDE OUTPUTS Three optocoupled general purpose outputs are available. The meaning of the outputs can be defined by the user. They are typically used either to signal the data collection result or to control an external lighting system. The electrical features of the two outputs are the following: VCE = 30 Vdc max. ICE = 40 mA continuous max.; 130 mA pulsed max. VCE saturation = 1 Vdc max. @ 10 mA PD = 80 mW Max. @ 45 °C ambient temp. The output signals are fully programmable.
EXTERNAL ILLUMINATORS OUTPUT CONNECTIONS USING EXTERNAL POWER Figure 20 - Output Open Emitter Using External Power Figure 21 - Output Open Collector Using External Power EXTERNAL ILLUMINATORS If an External Illuminator (strobe light) is used, it can be powered from the CBX connection box. It must be connected to the Vdc and GND terminal clamps. The strobe signal connection is shared with Output 3.
