  • Page 13 M10510B;13/58 (Note) Carefully note that the temperature data obtained by this monitoring function is not for the ambient temperature but the internal temperature of the camera. As a general rule, the internal temperature of the camera is higher than the ambient temperature because of the heat generation associated with the consumed electric power inside the camera.

  • Page 14: Various Settings

    M10510B;14/58 5. Various Settings (!) This camera is not equipped with the substantial shutter setting switch on the rear panel. “Shutter switch” or “Mode switch” described below means setting values of hypothetical shutter switch set on the memory inside the camera via serial communication command.
  • Page 15 M10510B;15/58 [Terminology] Fast-dump mode…. The effect of smear which appears in capturing images of high-intensity object can be reduced only for the upper side above the image by quickly dumping (sweeping out) unnecessary charges in the transfer channel of the CCD imaging device right after the trigger pulse is input in the asynchronous shutter operation.(one sided smear behavior) Exposure starting time is delayed for the dumping time (82H=approx.8ms), if the...
  • Page 16 M10510B;16/58 (5-2) Setting of shutter speed The shutter speed is determined by assigning “0 - 9” to the shutter switch position or specifying the shutter speed in H (Horizontal scan time) unit. As this camera is not equipped with the substantive shutter setting switch, the shutter speed is specified by changing the Feature settings regarding the exposure time of GenICam API or using the serial communication command via serial communication software.
  • Page 17 M10510B;17/58 (5-3) Level setting The level setting is mostly divided into the following two groups: Signal level １０ ２ ３ ● Gain setting This is to set the gain (amplification factor) Image signal (Befor setting a djustment ) of the preamplifier between the CCD image sensor inside the camera and A/D converter.
