General Operation / Camera Adjustment 4.1 General Operation The MC-1134P operates as a self-contained unit requiring no inputs other than the dc-power-supply input. The MC-1134P is designed to operate with little or no operator adjustment after the initial setup period.
External Operation 4.3 External Operation Odd Field VD In HD In –2 µs < T < 2 µs Even Field No reset during even field. Camera does not recognize a VD In if it coincides with 63.5/2 µs. Table 4–1. Synchronous Frequency Ranges FREQUENCY RANGE UNIT Horizontal...
Mode Selection 4.4.3 Description of Selectable Modes NORMAL LIGHT: The normal light sensitivity mode provides true interlace with 486 lines per frame and 1,134 pixels per line. After a 1/60 second exposure of the 486 active lines in the image area, one field of 243 lines becomes video;...
Description of CCD Operation 5.1 Description of CCD Operation The TC217 is a frame-transfer charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensor with two field memories. It is suitable for use in NTSC-video or still-picture photography applications. Its image-sensing area is configured into 488 lines, 486 of which are active and 2 of which are used for dark reference.
Periodic Image Test / Cleaning 6.1 Periodic Image Test Unlike a vidicon tube, the CCD is not a beam-current device, so there are no shading magnets or focusing coils to adjust. The CCD imager is not susceptible to burn in, so there is no need to check for sensor burn. It is a good idea to turn the monitor off when it is not in use for long periods of time.
