4.  Quick Notes 

4.1  CCFC General 

  When ordering the CCFC series, use the model numbers 

CCFC RS2332 or CCFC RS485 (see Sections 13 RS-232 

Communications and Section 14 RS-485 

Communications). 

  The Setup Button’s Status LED will flash when the camera 

is in an Active Power State. 

  When the Status LED is steadily on, the camera is booting 

up. Avoid interrupting this process. 

  Briefly pressing the Setup Button always causes the 

camera to exit from any low powered quiescent states and 

enables the Ethernet interface for communications. The 

camera will remain in this state for 5 minutes. 

  An active session to the camera with a web browser 

prevents the camera from entering a low powered state.  

  Avoid removing power from the camera when it is in an 

active state. If the camera is in an active state (Status LED 

is flashing), properly shutdown the camera to avoid any 

memory corruption before removing power. The camera 

can be shut down by holding the Setup Button 

continuously for more than 10 seconds or by using the 

Power Icon on the web interface.  

  Always ensure that all cable connectors and covers are 

securely in place. 

  Record any changes to the IP settings of the camera. This 

information is important to gain access to the camera for 

focusing or reconfiguration.  

  The camera configuration file can be imported or exported 

via the web interface. This feature can be found under 

Import/Export. 

  Check the Campbell Scientific website for firmware 

updates that may apply.
