Page 20: Optical Components
Installation and hardware Operation outside the allowed temperature range can damage the camera. For best performance and to protect the camera from damage, keep the housing temperature between the specified operating temperature. Observe the following: • To avoid camera crashes, operate the camera with a lens or lens adapter attached only. - Page 21 This product can be damaged by some volatile cleaning agents. Avoid cleaning the image sensor unless absolutely necessary. See instructions on optics cleaning in this document. Allied Vision can clean your camera as a service for you, if necessary.

Page 113: Mechanical Dimensions
Appendix Mechanical dimensions The Prosilica GC family offers both CCD and CMOS sensor models. CCD cameras utilize additional circuitry required for A/D conversion. As a result, CMOS models offer a shorter mechanical package than CCD models.

Page 115: Lens Protrusion For C-Mount Cameras
Appendix Lens protrusion for C-Mount cameras Lens protrusion is the distance from outer edge of C-Mount ring to contact point of first surface internal to C-Mount ring. For color models this surface is the IR-filter holder, and for monochrome models this surface is the internal camera front plate (see figure 63). -
