CinePlex v3 Manual - Plexon Inc

E.1 Overview
This appendix is intended to assist customers and Plexon personnel with questions
and advice regarding cabling their Plexon NDAQ/CinePlex Version 3
(NDAQ/CPX) combination systems.
Before beginning the installation, it is important to determine that the Personal
Computer on which the installation will be done meets the minimum system
requirements. In general, for a MAP/CPX system, this means at least Windows
XP Service Pack 3 computer running on an Intel Core 2 Duo processor operating
at 3 GHz with three GB of memory, and a 9600 GT video card. FireWire (IEEE
1394) capability must be installed. If two cameras will be used, a dual bus
FireWire card is needed. Any computer supplied by Plexon for a MAP/CPX system
will meet minimum requirements.
Contact Plexon support (support@plexon.com) to obtain more detailed current
requirements.
The first section is a high-level diagram of the cabling needed.
The second section contains more detailed photographic and pictorial representations
of the cable connections needed for several standard MAP/CPX system
configurations.
The third section contains photographs of the cables to facilitate identification.
The fourth section contains close-up images of cables plugged into their sockets.
Plexon’s goal is to enable the interconnection of the various CinePlex Version 3
components on the MAP/CPX system.
Plexon hopes that this procedure solves cabling issues for most installations.
Plexon welcomes feedback as to how to improve the experience. Pleas contact
