Page 5: Usage Precautions
WA-1000D-CL Usage Precautions Notes on cable configurations The presence of lighting equipment and television receivers nearby may result in video and audio noise. In such cases, change the cable configurations or placement. Notes on attaching the lens Avoiding dust particles When attaching the lens to the camera, stray dust and other particles may adhere to the sensor surface and rear surface of the lens. -
Page 6: Features
WA-1000D-CL Features The WA-1000D-CL is a dual-band line scan camera that uses a prism and a combination of bandpass filters to divide incoming light by wavelength and direct it to two separate InGaAs linear image sensors. Wavelengths captured are in the NIR and SWIR spectral ranges spanning from approximately 900 nm to 1700 nm and are output in two video channels (ch1/ch2) via the Camera Link interface. -
