Getting Started with the NI 17xx Smart Camera

1.

Connect and secure the 15-pin D-SUB connector on your cable to the POWER-I/O connector on
the smart camera.

2.

If you are using a terminal block, connect the cable to the terminal block.

3.

Connect the +24 V signal from the cable or terminal block to the corresponding signal on the power
supply.

Table 3 shows the pin locations for the POWER-I/O connector and lists the signal names and pin
numbers. The table also lists wire colors for the National Instruments 15-pin D-SUB pigtail cable.
Cables from another vendor may have different wire colors.

4.

Connect the COM signal from the cable or terminal block to the corresponding signal on the power
supply.

5.

Connect any additional I/O signals necessary for your application to the appropriate signal on the
cable or terminal block. Refer to Table 3 for pin information.

6.

If necessary, connect the power cord to the power supply.

7.

Plug the power supply into an outlet.

When power is first applied to the smart camera, the POWER LED flashes red for one second while
internal systems power up. The POWER LED then lights green when power is correctly wired to the
smart camera.
