Error description |
Possible causes and error correction |
Cognex Software shows errors when trying to start the camera “Error: FIFO image capture not initialized." |
•The uEye cameras were not assigned specific camera IDs (see Assignment of camera IDs). |
An opened camera registers frequent transfer errors (“Transfer failed”). |
•The pixel clock setting for this camera is too high. Set a lower pixel clock value. •In the case of USB uEye cameras: Check to see if the USB cables are connected exclusively to USB 2.0 components. Connect the camera with a USB port on the back of the PC instead of using the front ports. |
A GigE uEye camera cannot be activated. |
•The camera does not have a valid IP address. Use the IDS Camera Manager to set up a valid IP configuration. |
