    3.2.1 Thermal conditions CamPerform-CycloneFiber series cameras are available with accessories for heat dissipation. Depending on heat dissipating accessory, max. ambient temperature is given for each model on the technical data section. Fixing the camera on a heat conductive support can also be consider for heat dissipation. Measuring the case temperature might be necessary for critical applications to ensure the camera will not operate beyond its limits.
  • Page 7: Setting Up System

    3.4 Setting Up System 3.4.1 CoaXPress-over Fiber Overview CoaXPress-over-Fiber is a point-to-point interface to connect Devices (typically cameras) to Hosts (typically frame grabbers). It is strongly related to the CoaXPress standard interface and its protocol. Instead of using copper coaxial cables, fiber optical cables are used. Industry standard transceivers convert electrical to optical signals and vice versa.

    3.5 About Lenses 3.5.1 Lens handling Please be careful when installing or removing camera lens. Depending on your lens mount type and lens, pay attention to following points: • If your lens has a F-mount flange, first align mounting mark camera mount to lens mounting marks and then rotate anti-clockwise to lock the lens.

    • DefectPixelX6 • DefectPixelX7 • DefectPixelClearAll • DefectPixelUserFlashSave • DefectPixelUserFlashErase 5.3.4 Flat Field Correction (FFC) FFC correction is a column-based correction applied on all pixels. FFC correction consists in an FPN and a PRNU correction. At power up, camera loads FFC flash data (= FPN and PRNU column coefficients) to RAM. User can dynamically modify column parameters using XML interface.
