The In-Sight Micro ISM 1410 Series Cognex Vision System ISM1410-01 will connect with a variety of Ethernet cables. The Ethernet Cable options will have two types of connectors. At one end will be a M12 connector. This side of the Ethernet cable will hook up to the PoE connector. This port allows the vision system to obtain an Ethernet connection and obtain network communication in addition to supplying power for the vision system. The other side of the Ethernet cable is the RJ-45 connector.  The M12 connector can either come as a 135 degree key or a 45 degree key. This changes the orientation by which the Ethernet cable M12 connector approaches the vision system (bottom or right side).

The LED1 light will be green when it is active. A discrete output line 4 allows this LED to be user-configurable. If however the vision system is using the CIO-MICRO or the CIO-MICRO-CC I/O module then this output will actually be line 10. The LED2 has a red hue when active. This LED is user-configurable with the line 5 output (line 11 with the I/O modules).
