If any overheating sign is observed, discontinueuse immediately.
In the event that smoke, smell, or any otheroverheating sign is observed, turn its powerswitch OFF immediately, and remove its camera
cable from camera connector. Do NOT try tocontinue to use your camera. To do so in spiteof a clear sign of a malfunction invites a fire, anelectric shock hazard, or any other serious
damage. In such case, after confirming that there
is no risk of a fire accident, contact us or our
dealer/distributor through which you purchased
this device for repair service. To avoid hazard, do
NEVER attempt to repair it yourself.
If any malfunctioning sign is observed,
discontinue use immediately.
Do NOT try to use this device when it isobviously malfunctioning. (Example: No
images on the monitor) In the event of amalfunction, turn its power switch OFF
immediately, and remove its camera cable fromcamera connector. In such case, contact us or our
dealer/distributor through which you purchased
this device for repair service.
If any liquid gets into the device, discontinue use
immediately.
In the event that water, or any other type ofliquid gets into the body, do NOT try tocontinue to use the device. To do so invites a f
ire or an electric shock hazard. In such case,turn its power switch OFF immediately, andthen remove its camera cable from camera
connector. After that, contact us or our
dealer/distributor through which you purchased
this device for repair service/technical advice.
Connection/Disconnection only AFTER
power OFF.
When you connect/disconnect camera
connector, make sure to turn power SW OFF
first. This camera is not designed for “hotplugging”. Do NEVER makeconnection/disconnection while power ON.
Doing so might cause a breakdown.

CAUTIONCAUTIONCAUTION

If the camera is operated in the electromagnetic
field, there may be cases where beat noises(vertical, horizontal, or oblique stripes) appear in
the video output. In that case, take preventive
measures on the electromagnetic-wave
generating source so that your camera do notreceive the interference by theelectromagnetic-wave. Take extra precautions
against electromagnetic-wave-interference ifyour camera is used with a servomotor, inverter,or other electromagnetic-wave-generating
equipment.
Avoid giving a strong shock against the camera
body. It might cause a breakdown or damage. If
your camera is used in a system where its camera
head is subjected to strong repetitive shocks, its
camera head is possible to break down. If you
intend to use your camera in such a situation,
make sure to use an optional camera-connector-fixing-hardware to connect the connector-plug
to the camera body.
When the camera is not in use, put a lens or alens-cap onto the camera head so that the image
pickup plane of CCD is protected from dust,
foreign object, or any other flaw-causing object.
If the glass plane (image pickup plane) gets dirty,
clean it with a cotton swab. When it needs to becleaned with a cleaner, be sure NOT to use anyorganic solvent other than ethyl alcohol. As acountermeasure against condensation, when thecamera is moved from a warm
condition/environment to a cold one, takeappropriate precautions to prevent condensationfrom forming on the camera.
Do not pull strongly the camera
cable/camera-head nor swing it. The stress frompulling or swinging may cause damage in thecoating of the cable, or breaks in the insidewires.
Avoid short-circuiting signal output. Otherwise,
it may cause a malfunction.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION(4) DIP SW

Model CS8630BH is a miniature camera series featuring its
ultra-small light-weight body. The CS8630BH is designed mainly
for factory automation, machine vision, and image measurement
application.

FEATURES(1) High resolution
The 380,000 pixel CCD realizes the horizontal resolution of
570TV lines.
High-density images with minimum moire-fringes & beatings
are obtained. (CCIR: 440,000 pixels, 560TV lines)(2) Ultra-compact & light-weight body
The camera features its ultra-small light-weight body. Its supersmall body will free you from much of your space restriction
problem. The camera is driven by DC12V.
(3) Electronic shutter
The built-in electronic shutter allows this camera tocapture a fast-moving object clearly and sharply.
(4) AGC (Automatic Gain Control)
This series is equipped with AGC function. With the
AGC, the camera obtains optimal images constantly
even when the amount of incoming light fluctuates.
(5) Restart/Reset
When the restart/reset function set ON, the camera
captures images at any timing given by R.R. pulse
input (VD input).
(6) SS (Special shutter) & RTS (Random trigger shutter)
This camera is fitted with special shutter and random trigger
shutter function, which allows the camera to capture images
cued by external trigger input.
(7) Near-infrared region sensitivity
The CCD has a near-infrared-region sensitivity. These models
capture clear images even under near-IR shooting condition.
(8) RoHS compliant

OPERATION(1) Connect each system component as illustrated in Section 4
above.
(2) Turn the power switch of the video monitor ON.
(3) Feed power to the camera.
(4) Confirm that images appear on the video monitor. Adjust thelens aperture so that the optimal illumination is obtained.
(5) While monitoring the images on the video monitor, adjust thelens-focus so that the sharpest images are obtained.
(6) Adjust sensitivity. The factory setting is in MGC (Manual
Gain Control). AGC (Automatic Gain Control) mode is alsoavailable. The selection is made via DIP SW selection on therear side. Under the MGC mode, the rear-panel M GAIN
potentiometer is enabled for manual gain adjustment by anuser.
(7) Select gamma factor. The factory setting is 1.0. The selection
between 1.0 and 0.45 is made via the rear DIP SW selection.
(8) Select the electronic shutter ON/OFF. The factory setting is in
OFF position. To set E-shutter ON, use the rear-panel DIP SW.
(9) Select integration mode. The selection between the frame/field
integration is made via the rear DIP SW selection. The initialfactory setting is the frame integration.
(10) Set restart/reset, special shutter, or random trigger shutter
mode as necessary. The factory setting is all in OFF position.
Each function is set ON/OFF via the rear DIP SW selection.
(11) If you need HD VD output, use the rear SW under internal
sync operation.
(12) For connection with an image processor and otherperipheral devices, this camera is provided with CLK OUT(Clock output function).
