Page 7: Input And Output Circuits
CM-200 MCL / CB-200 MCL 5.3. Input and output circuits In the following schematic diagrams the input and output circuits for video and timing signals are shown. 5.3.1. Iris video output Video Video Video Output Output Output This signal can be used for lens iris control in Continuous mode. The signal is taken from the CCD sensor output before the gain circuit. -
Page 8: Functions And Operations
An analogue iris video signal can be used for controlling the iris of an auto iris lens when operating in continuous mode. The camera has 2/3, 1/2, 1/4 or 1/8 partial scanning and vertical binning ( CM-200MCL only )for faster frame rates . -
Page 9: Continuous Operation Or Triggered Operation
CM-200 MCL / CB-200 MCL The following 10 steps can be selected by command SH=0 through SH=9. OFF (1/25), 1/60, 1/100, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000, 1/2000, 1/4000, 1/8000, 1/10000 Programmable Exposure (PE) The Exposure time can be programmed in 32 µs (1 LVAL period) increments. The range is from 2L to 1251L. -
Page 10: Auto-Detect Lval-Sync / - A-Sync Accumulation
6.1.6. Auto-detect LVAL–sync / - a-sync accumulation This function replaces the manual setting found in current JAI cameras. Whether accumulation is synchronous or a-synchronous in relationship to LVAL depends on the timing of the trigger input. When a trigger is received while FVAL is high (during readout), the camera works in LVAL synchronous mode , preventing reset feed through in the video signal. -
Page 11: Vertical Binning
6.1.8. Vertical Binning This function is only available for CM-200MCL camera. Binning mode (Command VB) is a function where the signal charge from 2 adjacent (vertical) pixels are added together and read out as one pixel. Binning results in half vertical resolution and higher frame rate. -

Page 14: Partial Scanning
CM-200 MCL / CB-200 MCL 6.2.4. Partial Scanning Partial scan allows higher frame rate by reading out a smaller center portion of the image. This is particularly useful when inspecting objects that do not fill the whole height of the image. Fast-dump period Normal scan period Fast-dump period... -

Page 18: Pulse Width Control Trigger Mode
CM-200 MCL / CB-200 MCL 6.3.3. Pulse Width Control Trigger Mode 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 <60 frames. For timing details, refer to fig. 13 through fig. 18 and fig. 21 & 22. To use this mode: Set function: Trigger mode to “Pulse width control”. -

7. Configuring the Camera 7.1. CL-serial control All configuration of the CM-200MCL / CB-200MCL camera is done the serial communication in the Camera Link connector. The camera can be set up from a PC running terminal emulator software, or using JAI's camera control software. -
Page 21: Setting Functions
Vertical binning VB=0, VB=1 This function is only for CM-200MCL camera. With Vertical binning the pixel charge from 2 adjacent lines are added together in the horizontal CCD register. This done by providing two pulses to the vertical CCD register for each line readout. -
