    Specifications of the Input/Output Input Phase Specifications of the External HD/VD EVEN, Non Interlace External VD External HD Make sure that the external HD/VD phases against the standard central phase are as shown in the figure above. Invalid signal input may cause an error in the internal reset.
  • Page 9: Specifications Of The External Hd And Vd Outputs

    Specifications of the External HD/VD Outputs The amplitude level is the typical value when terminated with 10 kΩ. The external HD and VD can be output when you set the INT/EXT switch to INT. Specifications of the WEN Output 625 H(1N) 312.5 H(2I) The amplitude level is the typical value when terminated with 10 kΩ.
  • Page 10: Image Output Mode

    Image Output Mode The unit has two image signal output modes. Select the mode by setting the read mode switch on the rear panel. 2I Mode (Factory Default) The VIDEO OUT 1 and VIDEO OUT 2 connectors output ODD/EVEN interlaced images every 1/100 second.
  • Page 11: Restart/Reset

    Restart/Reset To set Restart/Reset mode The information on one screen can be extracted at any time by externally inputting a restart/reset signal (HD/ VD). To enter this mode, set the Restart reset/ External trigger shutter mode switch on the rear panel of the camera as shown in the figure below.
  • Page 12: Example Of Usage Of The Partial Scanning Mode

    Example of Usage of the Partial Scanning Mode As shown in the table on the next page, you can increase the frame rate by setting the partial scanning mode switch and the external VD frequency. The image obtained is centered as shown below. External VD VBLKG Video out...

When the 10th digit is 2 and the first digit is 6, n=26. The maximum value of n is 99, and the minimum value of Tb is 45.
  • Page 14: External Trigger Shutter

    External Trigger Shutter By inputting an external trigger pulse, the camera is able to capture fast-moving objects clearly. Set the Restart reset/External Trigger Shutter mode switch on the rear panel to Mode 1 or Mode 2. When you set the trigger pulse width to 1/3 of a second or more, the output signal changes to the normal VIDEO signal.
  • Page 15: Example Of The Usage Of The Partial Scanning Mode

    Example of Usage of the Partial Scanning Mode Increase the frame rate by setting the shutter speed to the trigger pulse width in external trigger modes 1 and 2, and then set the partial scanning mode adjustment switch and the trigger frequency (as shown in the table on the next page).
