1.0 Introduction

This hardware guide describes how to access and use features specific to Pleora’s iPORT

PT1000-CL IP Engine. The engine is available as both an OEM board set and a boxed

unit. Therefore, some of the descriptions in this guide, particularly those dealing with

physical aspects, have two sections, one of each form factor of the engine.

For an overview of how to use IP Engine, see the iPORT Quick Start Guide. For detailed

information about the PLC, see the iPORT Programmable Logic Controller reference

guide.

2.0 Overview of the iPORT PT1000-CL

2.1 Highlights

The iPORT PT1000-CL IP Engine delivers the core set of features offered in all iPORT

IP Engines, plus a connector and extended functions tailored specifically for Camera

Link®cameras. It interfaces to all cameras that comply with the Camera Link base

configuration standard.

The engine grabs data from a Camera Link camera, converts it to IP quickly and

efficiently, and sends it to PCs over GigE links or LANs. The grabber circuitry in the

PT1000-CL removes horizontal and vertical blank times, which helps maximize

bandwidth usage in the GigE connection.

Data is streamed continuously over inexpensive Cat-5 copper cable with low and

consistent latency (delay) at the full, 1-Gb/s line rate. At the PC, the Cat-5 cable plugs

into a standard GigE NIC (network interface card/chip), eliminating the need for a frame

grabber.

The PT1000-CL also handles control signals from the PC and other system elements.

These signals are routed through a PLC (programmable logic controller) that allows users

to precisely measure and control the operation of conveyors, encoders, cameras, and other

components – either independently from or in conjunction with the host PC on the

network.

2.2 Models

The standard model of the iPORT PT1000-CL IP Engine is known as the iPORT

PT1000-CL4. This model is available as an OEM board set or boxed unit.

Pleora also offers a variant of the boxed model known as the iPORT PT1000-CL5. It is

not available as an OEM board set.

The only difference between the two is their IO pin-out. The CL4 has two TTL IOs and

one LVDS input; the CL5 has three TTL IOs and no LVDS input. See Sections 3.2.2 and

3.2.4 of this guide for more detail.

Hardware tap reconstruction is also offered in the iPORT PT1000-CL4-T and the iPORT

PT1000-CL5-T. Contact Pleora to determine which tap architectures are currently

supported. Besides hardware tap reconstruction these models are identical to their parent

models.

Note: Information about the first-generation version of the iPORT PT1000-CL, known as

the iPORT PT1000-CL2, is available in the Appendix. This model is not available to new

customers and is no longer being upgraded with new features.

3.0 Connectors

This section provides information about the Camera Link, power, and IO connectors on

the OEM and boxed versions of the iPORT PT1000-CL IP engine. The Ethernet

connector is a standard RJ-45 plug.

3.1 Camera Link Connector

All iPORT PT1000-CL models use the same high-density, 26-pin MDR26 standard

female Camera Link connector. The mating part number is the 3M 224-31 series. The

connector uses the 3M 14X26-SZLB-XXX-0LC cable, or equivalent. Table 3 maps the

pins in the Camera Link connector to signals.

3.2 Power and IO Connectors

3.2.1 Power Connector for OEM Board Set

The iPORT PT1000-CL4 OEM board set accepts power supply voltages of from 4.5 V to

16 V (regulated). The connector, shown as J2 on the left-hand side of Figure 1, is a

Molex 4-pin 6373 Series (22-23-2041). The part mates with the Molex 4-pin shell (22-

01-3047) and the Molex crimp pin (08-55-0102). Table 4 lists the four pins in this

connector and describes the function of each.
