Datasensing CAM-E198-GE (E198) GigE Area Scan Camera

CAM-E198-GE

The CAM-E198-GE (E198) is the top-of-range model in Datasensing's compact E1xx GigE camera family, delivering 5 MP resolution (2448×2048 pixels) at 22.7 fps full-frame with higher rates available via partial scan. It uses a 2/3" global-shutter CMOS sensor with 3.45×3.45 µm square pixels, providing a photosensitive area of 8.4 mm (H) × 7.1 mm (V). Connectivity is via 1000Base-T GigE with PoE or 12–24 VDC power, C-mount lens support, and a compact 42×29×29 mm IP30-rated housing suitable for space-constrained installations.

Follow these steps to bring a Datalogic / Datasensing camera online, grab a first image, and move toward an integrated inspection.

Software: IMPACT Software Suite

1. Install the IMPACT Software Suite and connect the camera
Install the IMPACT Software Suite on your PC, which provides both the configuration/viewer tools and the SDK. For a GigE Vision model (E100, M or U series), connect it to a dedicated NIC and, for USB3 models, use a certified USB3 cable and port. Power the camera and confirm it enumerates.
2. Bring the camera online and verify the link
For GigE Vision, put the camera and the host NIC on the same subnet (a static IP on the camera matching the NIC range is the most reliable starting point); for USB3, confirm the device is recognized. Open the IMPACT viewer/device tool, discover the camera, and verify a stable connection before streaming. Enabling jumbo frames on the NIC helps GigE throughput.
3. Set exposure, gain and trigger, then grab a first image
In the IMPACT tools, start a live stream and adjust exposure and gain until the image is well-lit without saturation; set white balance on color models. Begin in free-run (continuous) mode to confirm imaging, then switch to hardware or software trigger as your application requires. Capture and save a reference image once the scene looks correct.
4. Build a vision tool or move to the SDK/API
Use the IMPACT point-and-click vision tools to assemble an inspection, or use the IMPACT SDK to access the camera and results programmatically and feed them into your HMI/PLC application. As these are GenICam/GenTL-compliant devices, you can alternatively drive them from any GenICam-compliant third-party vision library if your pipeline standardizes on one.
5. Route the stable feed to deep-learning inspection (optional)
Once you have a stable, repeatable image, the feed can be sent to a deep-learning inspection platform such as Rosepetal for defect detection or classification tasks that go beyond rule-based tooling. Keep lighting, optics and trigger timing fixed so the images reaching the model stay consistent.
