  • Page 11: Camera Cleaning

    Introduction Caution Do not exceed environmental specifications. See environmental specifications limits in the Specifications  section of this document. Special care must be taken to maintain a reasonable operating temperature. If the camera is operated in temperatures higher than the specified range, the camera should be mounted on a heat sink.
  • Page 12 Introduction Color cameras with IR filter Prosilica GT color cameras are equipped with an IR filter. With no lens or lens cap on a camera, the IR filter is exposed and debris can accumulate on it. This is the most probable location for debris. It should not be necessary to remove the IR filter for cleaning.

  • Page 49: Filters

    Filters Filters All Prosilica GT color models are equipped with an infrared block filter (IR fil- ter). This filter is employed to prevent infrared wavelength photons from pass- ing to the sensor. In the absence of IR filter, images are dominated by red and incapable of being properly color balanced.

    Camera dimensions C-Mount flange focal distance Flange focal distance is the optical distance from the mounting flange to image sensor die. Prosilica GT C-Mount cameras are optically calibrated to a standard 17.526 mm optical flange focal distance, with a ±10 μm tolerance. Prosilica GT cameras are shipped with adjustable C-Mount.
  • Page 57 Camera dimensions Image to infinity Use a C-Mount compatible lens that allows an infinity focus. Set the lens to infinity and image a distant object—10 to 15 m should suffice. Make sure the lens is firmly threaded onto the C-Mount ring. Rotate the lens and C-Mount ring until the image is focused.

    Camera interfaces Gigabit Ethernet port The Prosilica GT is powered through the 12-pin Hirose Camera I/O port, or the Gigabit Ethernet port by using any standard Power over Ethernet (PoE) sup- ported network card, switch, or injector. Allied Vision recommends using Cate- gory 6 or higher compatible cabling for best performance.

    Camera interfaces I/O definition Camera Power The Prosilica GT camera can be powered through the Hirose I/O port, via Pin 1 Camera GND and Pin 2 Camera Power, or through the Gigabit Ethernet port if using a power over Ethernet (PoE) supported network card, switch, or injector. Cameras powered by both the Hirose I/O port and the Gigabit Ethernet port will use the power provided by Hirose I/O port only.
  • Page 64: Output Signals

    Camera interfaces Input triggers Input triggers allow the camera to be synchronized to an external event. The camera can be programmed to trigger on the rising edge, falling edge, both edges, or level of the signal. The camera can also be programmed to capture an image at some programmable delay time after the trigger event.
  • Page 65 Camera interfaces Out 1 and 2 – Non-isolated Out 1 and Out 2 signals are not electrically isolated and can be used when envi- ronmental electrical noise is inconsequential and faster trigger response is required. Tie signal ground to Camera GND to complete the external circuit. The output signal is a low voltage TTL, maximum 3.3 V.
  • Page 66: Lens Control

    Camera interfaces Lens control Prosilica GT standard and extended cameras Prosilica GT standard and extended cameras can be used with C-/CS-Mount auto iris lenses of DC type, and P-Iris type. Both DC and P-Iris lens types use the same standard connector, shown left, located on the side of the camera.
  • Page 67 Camera interfaces DC-type auto iris lenses are continuously driven by a voltage (0–3.3 V) from the camera lens control port. This voltage level determines whether the lens opens or closes, and is calculated based on the applicable iris camera attributes. Operation 1.
