AM-1600GE / AB-1600GE22Minimum PC requirements are as follows in order to fulfill the above conditions:♦ Intel Core 2 Duo , 2.4GHz or better / for AB-1600GE, Core 2 Extreme or better for AB-1600GE♦ At least 2 GB memory♦ Video Card with PCI Express Bus x 16, VRAM better than DDR2 with 256 MB or more, anddisplay capability of 2560 x 1600♦ Windows XP, SP2 (32bit)♦ Functions such as Screen saver and Power save should not be used. Unnecessaryapplications such as Word, Excel or others should not be used.Note: Pentium 4 type PC is not recommended due to dependency on chip set bus performance.8.2.2 Video data rate (network bandwidth)The video bit rate for AM-1600GE and AB-1600GE at the continuous mode is:Model Pixel Type Frame Rate Packet data volume(for a Packet size of 4040)AM-1600GE MONO8 3.04 fps 390 Mbit/sMONO10_PACKEDMONO12_PACKED3.04 fps 585 Mbit/sMONO10MONO123.04 fps 780 Mbit/sAB-1600GE BAYGR8, 3.04 fps 390 Mbit/sBAYGR10,BAYGR12 3.04 fps 780 Mbit/sNote: The above data assumes that OB transfer mode is OFF.♦ If using 16KB Jumbo Frames, the packet data will be improved by a maximum of 1 % exceptMono8, BAY8.To ensure the integrity of packets transmitted from the camera it is recommended that usersfollow these simple guidelines:1. Whenever possible use a peer-to-peer network.2. When connecting several cameras, going through a network switch, make sure it iscapable of handling jumbo packets and that it has sufficient memory capacity.3. Configure inter-packet delay to avoid congestion in networks switches.4. Disable screen saver and power save functions on computers.5. Use high performance computers with multi-CPU, hyper-thread and 64-bit CPU, etc.6. Only use Gigabit Ethernet equipment and components together with the camera.7. Use at least Cat5e and preferably Cat6 Ethernet cables.8. Whenever possible, limit the camera output to 8-bit.
