Make sure that on the camera side, both power and data connectors are tightly screwed to their plugs.

The Pickit processors are equipped with three Ethernet ports: “YOUR_PC”, “SWITCH” and “LAN.” You can select which port to connect your camera through the Pickit web interface. Simply navigate to Settings → Ethernet cameras port and choose your desired port.

The default setting is SWITCH / ROBOT, which involves connecting the Pickit SWITCH to the SWITCH port and then connecting both the camera and the robot to the switch.
