Describes the network interface www.jai.com User’s manual is available at JAI SDK & Control Tool User Guide and JAI SDK Getting Started Guide are provided with the JAI SDK which is available at www.jai.com. Introduction GigE Vision is a standard interface which uses Gigabit Ethernet for machine vision applications. It was developed primarily by AIA (Automated Imaging Association) members.
CB-200GE/CB-200GE-RA provide a frame rate of 25 frames/second at full resolution. Using vertical binning (CM-200GE/CM-200GE-RA only) and partial scan provides higher frame rates. The 1/1.8" CCD with square pixels offers a superb image quality. The high-speed shutter function and asynchronous random trigger mode allows the camera to capture high quality images of fast moving objects.
24 frames/second with external trigger and full resolution • +24dB Gain and noise reduction circuit built-in • Increased frame rate with vertical binning (CM-200GE/CM-200GE-RA only) and partial scan • Exposure time from 64μs to 2 sec. using Pulse Width Control trigger mode •...

Guide” supplied with the JAI SDK. GigE Vision Standard Interface 8.1. The CM-200GE/CM-200GE-RA and CB-200GE/CB-200GE-RA are designed in accordance with the GigE Vision standard. In transmits digital images over Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cables. All camera functions are also controlled via the GigE Vision interface.
(NICs) and switches/routers are suitable for use with the GigE Vision compliant camera. JAI will endeavor to continuously verify these combinations, in order to give users the widest choice of GigE components for their system design.
Regarding data transfer rate, a larger packet size produces a slightly lower data transfer rate. The CM-200GE and CB-200GE sereis can support a maximum of 4040 byte packets provided the NIC being used has a Jumbo Frames function with a setting of a 4040 bytes or larger.

GigE camera connecting examples 8.4.1 Using a switching hub for 1 port ♦ All cameras and NIC belong to the same subnet ♦ The accumulated transfer rate for all cameras should be within 800Mbps ♦ The packet size and the packet delay should be set appropriately in order for the data not to overflow in the switching hub.

JAI method for shutter setting can also be used including JAI Shutter Mode, JAI Preset Shutter, JAI Exposure Time Raw and JAI Exposure Time (us). If setting is done using the SFNC method, these settings are automatically reflected in the traditional JAI settings area.
For examples of settings, refer to chapter 6.5.1. 9.3. Auto-detect LVAL-sync / async. accumulation This function replaces the manual setting found in older JAI cameras. Whether accumulation is synchronous or a-synchronous in relationship to LVAL depends on the timing of the trigger input.
CM-200GE/CM-200GE-RA/CB-200GE/CB-200GE-RA 10. Operation Modes The CM-200GE and CB-200GE series comply with GenICam SFNC (Standard Features Naming Convention) version 1.3 and the acquisition of the image, the trigger functions, the exposure settings and so on are different from those used in early versions of these cameras.

The following is an example: when JAI Acquisition and Trigger Control is set at EPS, TriggerMode is automatically set ON and ExposureMode is set to Timed.
Page 41
CM-200GE/CM-200GE-RA/CB-200GE/CB-200GE-RA The exposure time can be set in the JAI Shutter Mode by selecting either lines or microseconds and the setting values are reflected in the same items of Acquisition and Trigger Control. Other parameters such as trigger signal should be set in Acquisition and Trigger Control.
CM-200GE/CM-200GE-RA/CB-200GE/CB-200GE-RA 10.2.2 Edge Pre-select Trigger Mode An external trigger pulse initiates the capture, and the exposure time (accumulation time) is the fixed shutter speed set by registers. The accumulation can be LVAL synchronous or LVAL a- synchronous. The resulting video signal will start to be read out after the selected shutter time.
CM-200GE/CM-200GE-RA/CB-200GE/CB-200GE-RA 10.2.3 Pulse Width trigger mode (PWC) In this mode the accumulation time is equal the trigger pulse width. Here it is possible to have long time exposure. The maximum recommended time is <2 seconds. The accumulation can be LVAL synchronous or LVAL asynchronous.
After the trigger pulse is input, a fast dump readout is performed. In the CM-200GE/ CB-200GE, this period is 8.3307ms which is 179L. The exposure time is determined by the pre-set shutter speed. If no further trigger pulses are applied, the camera will continue in normal mode and the video signal is not output.

CM-200GE/CM-200GE-RA/CB-200GE/CB-200GE-RA In the case of Sequential EPS, (Trigger source is Software) For each sequence, The following table shows the minimum trigger interval in asynchronous accumulation mode. In case of sequential mode, only asynchronous mode is functional. Therefore, the trigger timing should be set so that the timing is not in synchronous mode.
CM-200GE/CM-200GE-RA/CB-200GE/CB-200GE-RA 10.2.6 Delayed Readout Mode (Pre-Select trigger and pulse width trigger) This mode can be used to delay the transmission of a captured image. When several cameras are triggered simultaneously and connected to the same GigE interface, it allows the cameras to be read out in sequence, preventing congestion.
CM-200GE/CM-200GE-RA/CB-200GE/CB-200GE-RA When the image stored is transferred, the trigger source should be set at Transfer Start When the trigger pulse is input, the image is output. 10.2.7 Optical Black transfer Mode It is possible for the user to decide whether the optical black (OB) portion of the image will be transferred or not.
Auto applicable Readout Note 1: Vertical Binning is available for only CM-200GE/CM-200GE-RA. Note 2: The Auto iris output is only effective on Normal scan and Vertical binning modes. It is not available on the partial scan mode. - 50 -...
