Key questions and answers
Question 1: How many cameras can be connected to the FZ5 controller at most? What are the limitations on connecting different pixel cameras?
Answer: The FZ5 controller is divided into two camera types and four camera types, supporting up to four cameras; Regardless of the controller, a 5-megapixel camera can only connect up to 2 units and cannot connect up to 4 units.
Question 2: How long can the FZ5 series camera cable be extended to? Which cameras do not support long-distance cables?
Answer: With the FZ-VSJ expansion unit, the maximum total length of the cable can reach 45m; the 5-megapixel camera (FZ-S5M2/SC5M2) does not support 10m and 15m long cables, and only supports 5m standard cables at most.
Question 3: What barcode and QR code recognition does the FZ5 system support? What are the core measurement functions?
answer:
Barcode: Supports JAN/EAN/UPC, Code39, Code128, ITF, etc
QR Code: Supports Data Matrix (ECC200) and QR Code
Core measurement: edge position/width, circle diameter, area center of gravity, defect detection, character recognition, size measurement
