Mixed data multiple devices

Hi everyone, I am trying to get data from two cameras, the output of these cameras is an array. The cameras needs a POE to work, I connect the POE to my computer and I read the data from the cameras. My problem is, the data I get is mixed, I mean, the array from camara1 is mixed with data from camera2, The cameras take the photo at the same time, they have a external trigger. How could I solve this problem?. Should I change the IP of the cameras?.

What is a "POE"? Are you talking about PoE = "Power over Ethernet"?

What is the current IP setting of those cameras?

 

You really need to provide more information before we can help you…

Yes, I meant PoE = Power of ethernet. I checked the cameras“ IP in NI MAX and that is what I get

Hi lamarck,

 

they are on different sub-nets - which is "not good" in my experience…

 

Usually the should be in the same subnet as your computer, so have all devices in 169.254.192.* or 169.254.103.*

(Edit: IP addresses corrected.)

Best regards,

Actually, they are both Link Local addresses which means they aren't getting an IP assigned to them by the DHCP server.

It should be explained in the manual of those cameras…
