Figure 4: Tau Cnv Camera With M42 Lens And C-Mount Adapter - FLIR Tau CNV User Manual

For customers that have their own optics and mechanical mounting housings, the CNV camera can be
used without the M42 lens mount assembly. In this case, the customer uses the sensor mounting plate
precision alignment pins to align the CNV camera focal plane with the customer's optical assembly.
The M42 can be equipped with the optional motorized IR-cut filter for day and night imaging
applications. The IR-cut filter is an integrated BG38 glass filter for day time color imaging and optical
pass filter for low-light imaging applications. The filter is controlled manually using serial commands, or
under automatic control for detected low-light conditions. The default operation is manual control.
