15 Appendix E - Using an iRIS-CAM Camera
15.1 Overview
The iRIS-CAM is a camera accessory for the iRIS 320 and iRIS 350 datalogger. It is supplied in an
environmentally sealed (IP66) enclosure constructed from a special corrosion-resistant aluminium alloy that
is finished in a hard-anodised coating. This provides a very high degree of mechanical strength and EMI
shielding, and enables completely stand-alone mounting in outdoor situations. The enclosure is filled with
epoxy resin and the lens is silicon greased in place, which means the potential for water ingress is extremely
low.
When connected to an appropriately configured iRIS data logger, images can be taken, stored and then
unloaded (at regular intervals) via any of the communication channels available to the iRIS (e.g. IP, CSD or
RS232).
To use an iRIS-CAM, an iRIS 320 requires a small interface board to be installed. The iRIS 350
has the interface already built in.
