Phenomena inherent to CCD imaging device The following phenomena are inherent to a charge coupled device imaging element and do not indicate malfunction. Smear and blooming Vertical bands are visible when a strong light enters the scene. Adjust the camera aiming direction carefully to avoid strong direct or reflected light.
Overview KP-FD510WCL is CameraLink output type color camera which utilized the progressive scan CCD image sensor with square pixel which adopted the RGB primary color mosaic filter. Because square pixel CCD is adopted, the image that is appropriate for the picture processing is obtained.

2. Fixed shutter mode When external trigger signal is POSITIVE (high active), after the trigger signal rise, exposure is start. The exposure time is set by the camera electronic shutter speed. The video output is obtained immediately after the end of fixed exposure. The strobe signal start/end can be set to shutter time.

3. ONE trigger mode When external trigger signal is POSITIVE (high active), after the trigger signal rise, exposure is start. At the trigger signal falling edge, the internal VD signal is reset and the video data are transmitted. The trigger signal width equals the exposure time.
NOTE: If the external VD of cycle which does not match the camera operation mode is input, shutter time has an error. Input / Output signal 1. Input signal The level of the trigger signal input to KP-FD510WCL is as follows. (1) Input from CameraLink cable LVDS level.
