  • Page 80: Adjustment Of C-Mount

    Camera dimensions Adjustment of C-Mount PIKE cameras allow the precise adjustment of the back focus of the C-Mount by means of a back focus ring which is threaded into the C-Mount and held by two screws on either side of the camera. The mechanical adjustment of the imaging device is important in order to achieve a perfect alignment with the focal point of the lens.

    Camera dimensions F-Mount, K-Mount, M39-Mount Note For other mounts (e.g. F-Mount, K-Mount) please contact your distributor. Note Pike F-210 and Pike F-421 can be equipped at factory site with M39-Mount instead of C-Mount. M39-Mount is ideally suited for Voigtländer (aka Voigtlander) short focal length optics.

    Camera interfaces PIKE fiber All PIKE cameras are also available as fiber version with 1 x GOF connector and 1x copper connector. The GOF connector is of the following type: 2 x optical fiber on LCLC The GOF transmission uses MMF (multi-mode fiber at 850 nm). Connect the camera by using either of the connectors.
