Congratulations on your purchase of an intensified CCD camera from Photon Technology International. Our cameras feature advanced imaging components carefully

designed, tested and assembled using state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques to give you the performance you need at an affordable price.

While these cameras were designed specifically for low-light imaging applications such as ratio fluorescence microscopy, they can be used for many other applications that

require very low-light imaging capabilities. Optional lenses and monitors are available from PTI for you to assemble systems for security monitoring, astronomy, nocturnal

wildlife observation, and much more.

NOTE: Please read the entire User's Manual, especially the

WARNINGS

1. The intensifier of the camera is extremely light-sensitive. The protective cap must remain on the camera at all times except when installed. Remove the protective cap

only under very low light level conditions. Even brief exposure to normal room lighting may cause permanent damage, which will void the camera warranty.

2. Prior to turning on the camera, all controls must be turned to their extreme counterclockwise position. Failure to do so can cause permanent damage to the intensifier, which

will void the camera warranty.

3. Never operate the camera under conditions that could expose it to high or uncontrolled light levels. Extreme care must be taken to prevent excessive light from reaching the

photocathode surface while the high voltage is turned on. Permanent damage to the intensifier may result, which will void the camera warranty.

Summary of Contents for PTI IC-110

Page 1 Gain Selection: Internal with front panel switch, external with TTL signal, BNC input connector Indicators: Sync lock and video overload Camera Dimensions: IC-110, 6.30 in. long (163 mm); IC-200 and IC-300, 8.5 in. long (218 mm); all models, 2.50 in. diameter (63.50 mm) Camera Weight: ~2 lb.
Page 2 The camera is lightweight and does not require additional support. Alternatively, the camera can be fitted with a lens (two optional lenses are available from PTI) and attached to a tripod or other camera mount that has a standard 1/4-20 threaded fitting.
Page 3 VOLTAGE The VOLTAGE dial adjusts the gain of the intensifier in the camera. On the IC-110, it adjusts the voltage supplied to the intensifier, which has the effect of varying its gain. On all other models, the control changes the actual gain of the intensifier. The control does not adjust the gain of the video signal produced by the CCD sensor in the camera.
Page 4 PTI--User Manuals http://www.pti-nj.com/UserManuals/ICCDCamera110-manual.html signal received is held high (GAIN 2), the selector switch setting is ignored. To utilize an external TTL signal, leave the selector switch set to GAIN 1. To use the manual switch, keep the logic signal low, or disconnect the cable. When in doubt, the illuminated legends above the GAIN controls always indicate which GAIN setting is in effect.
Page 5 4. Remove the fuse from the holder and replace the fuse. Be sure to use a fuse of the same type and rating. 5. Press the fuse holder back into place. NOTE: The fuse is the only user-serviceable part in the controller, and the camera has no user-serviceable parts. For any repair service needs, contact the PTI Service Department.
