Do not drop the equipment or allow it to be subject to strong impact or vibration, as such action may cause
malfunctions. Further, do not damage the connection cable, since this may cause wire breakage.

 Environmental operating conditions
Do not use the product in locations where the ambient temperature or humidity exceeds the specifications.
Otherwise, image quality may be degraded or internal components may be adversely affected. In particular, do
not use the product in areas exposed to direct sunlight. Moreover, during shooting under high temperatures,vertical stripes or white spots (noise) may be produced, depending on the subject or camera conditions (such asincreased gain). However, such phenomena are not malfunctions.

 Check a combination with the lens
Depending on the lens and lighting you use, an image is reflected as a ghost in the imaging area. However, thisis not because of a fault of the camera.
In addition, depending on the lens you use, the performance of the camera may not be brought out fully due todeterioration in resolution and brightness in the peripheral area, aberration and others.
Be sure to check a combination with the camera by using the lens and lightning you actually use.
When installing a lens in the camera, make sure carefully that it is not tilted.
In addition, use a mounting screw free from defects and dirt. Otherwise, the camera may be unable to be
removed.
 Do not shoot under intense light.

9. Functions
By accessing the camera register published on the camera link I/F, you can control/set each function.
Since access to the camera register is performed via the frame grabber board, the controlling and setting methods
differ depending on the frame grabber board you use. For details, refer to the instruction manual of the relevant
frame grabber board or contact our sales representative.
This instruction manual describes the specifications in the case where the camera register is directly connected byserial transmission over the camera link interface.
9.1 Explanation of Each Function(1) Register setting value updating Address：0x6E, Bit：0, Value:1
The changed register setting value is reflected on the camera operation.
Only writing a value in each register does not cause the value to be reflected on the camera operation.
Register value updating must be executed before the changed setting value can be reflected on the camera
action.
To save the setting value in memory, the register setting value must be updated beforehand. Otherwise, an
execution error occurs and the setting value is unable to be saved in memory.
(2) Readout mode
Video is output from the camera link connector. The output video can be grabbed by the frame grabber board.
The frame rate and resolution of output images that this model supports are as follows:
1) All pixel readout: Approximately 30 fps / 1628(H) x 1236(V)2) Partial scan
: Approximately 30 to 183 fps / 1628(H) x 552(V) to 1236(V)3) High-speed draft readout : Approximately 89 fps / 1628(H) x 309(V)1) All pixel readout Address：0x70, Bit：0, Value:0 and Address：0x81, Bit：0, Value:0
Reads out all pixels in about 1/30 second.

2) Programmable partial scan Address：0x70, Bit：0, Value:0 and Address：0x81, Bit：0, Value:1
A range arbitrary from 50 lines to 1236 lines can be read. The frame rate can be raised to 183fps or less byskipping it at high speed excluding an effective area.
When the frame rate of a partial scanning exceeds it when the shutter mode is switched from normality(internal synchronization) to the partial scanning mode, more high-speed than the setting of the speed of
the shutter it is changed at the speed of the shutter matched to the frame rate.

you are responsible for finally confirming the image quality by using the entire machine/equipment.

(5) White balance
There are two types of white balancing mode. You can set white balancing mode, according to the subject andpurpose.
1) OPWB (one-push auto white balance) Address：0x74, Bit：0, Value:1 and Address：0x77, Bit：0, Value:1
When you execute OPWB, the white balance is automatically adjusted. After automatic adjustment, theadjusted white balance is held. Execute OPWB, with a white subject picked up on the entire screen.
2) MANUAL (manual white balance)

Address：0x74, Bit：0, Value:0 and Address：0x75, Bit：0 to7, Value:0 to 255

In the manual white balance mode, the white balance can be adjusted manually in two ways: by preset
setting or by user setting (the user sets the R-gain and B-gain individually).
The preset setting can be selected from 6 fixed color temperatures (3000 K, 3700 K, 4000 K, 4500 K,
5500 K and 6500 K)
If you want to adjust the white balance more accurately, enter the user manual setting mode and set
R-gain and B-gain individually.
R-gain setting Address：0x78 and 0x79, Bit：0 to 7 and 0 to 2, Value:0 to 1535
B-gain setting Address：0x7A and 0x7B, Bit：0 to 7 and 0 to 2, Value:0 to 1535
(6) Gamma Address：0x7D, Bit：0, Value:0 to 1
You can set gamma correction ON/OFF.
* When gamma correction is ON, the user cannot adjust the correction amount.
(7) Masking correction Address：0x7E, Bit：0, Value:0 to 1
You can set masking correction ON/OFF. When masking correction is ON, the hue of images is corrected so that
it will be natural.
* When gamma correction is ON, the user cannot adjust the correction amount.

Rev 3.0(9) Random trigger shutter Address：0x6A, Bit：0, Value:1
In the random trigger shutter mode, you can shoot and grab an image at an arbitrary timing by trigger signal input
from the external.
・External trigger signals can be input either from the camera link I/F CC1 or I/O connector.
・If polarity is set to negative polarity, exposure starts at the falling edge of the trigger. Address：0x6A, Bit：1
・The random trigger shutter of this camera can be operated in two types of mode: fixed mode and pulse
width mode. How to determine the exposure time differs depending on the mode.
1) Fixed mode Address：0x6B, Bit：0, Value:0
・The exposure time is determined by the setting value for the shutter speed.
・FVAL is output in sync with the first LVAL after the end of exposure time.

2) Pulse width mode Address：0x6B, Bit：0, Value:1
・The exposure time is determined by the pulse width (exposure time = pulse width + approximately 14μs).
・Set a pulse width of 1H (approximately 26.7μs) or more.
・FVAL is output in sync with the first LVAL after the end of exposure time.

Notes of trigger mode:
When the interval of the input trigger signal is extremely short, or when the trigger signal is noisy, there
is a possibility of causing the malfunction. In this case, please input a proper trigger signal.

Rev 3.0(10) Multiple-shutter mode Address：0x66, Bit：0, Value：1
In the multiple-shutter mode, video is output in sync with a MULTI signal from the external after the end of
exposure time.
・Valid only when the random trigger shutter mode is ON.
・MULTI signals can be input from the camera link I/F CC2.
・If exposure is executed several times before MULTI signal input, the images are output superposed.
・The exposure time is determined by the random trigger shutter mode setting and its determination method.
・The pulse width must be set to negative polarity and 1H (approximately 26.7μs) to 10 ms.
・FVAL is output in sync with the first LVAL after the end of MULTI signal input.

Notes on multiple-shutter:
An image has been stored to CCD device until a MULTI signal is inputted and it begins to read out
image after CCD is exposed. Therefore, an image may degenerate step by step when an image is stored
to CCD device for a long time.
And, Electric charge is superimposed in CCD device when the multiplex exposure. Therefore, CCD willflood with electric charge when electric charge is over superimposed in CCD device. Consequently
vertical stripes noise will appear. At that time please stop using spotlight and dimmer for example close
the iris.

In the start reset mode, it takes a picture of the image according to arbitrary timing by the VD signal input fromthe outside, and it is possible to take it. A low-speed speed of the shutter can be easily set in this mode.
･External VD signal can be input from either camera link I/F CC1 or 11 I/O connector pins.
･The interval of external VD signal becomes the speed of the shutter (exposure time).
･Peculiar timing to internal makes horizontal, driving timing LVAL asynchronous from external VD signal.
･The image output is output to the input timing of external VD signal delaying 1.0H or less.

Rev 3.0(12) Setting value memory
Each setting value can be saved in the memory inside the camera.
・The contents of the memory is held even after the power supply is turned off.
・The memory consists of 4 banks. For each table, you can save/readout the setting value independently, as well
as reset the setting value to the initial factory setting.
・You can set the number of the memory bank to be read out when the power supply is turned on, by using therelevant dip switch on the back surface of the main body.
1) Memory save Address：0x51, Bit：0 to 1, Value：0 to 3
・When you write to the register the number of the memory bank to which the setting value is to be saved, thesetting value of each register is saved in the internal memory.
・If you have not executed "Update" after changing the setting value (reset address 0x6E to 0x01), an execution
error occurs and the setting value is not saved in the memory. Be sure to execute "Update" before saving thesetting value.
2) Memory readout Address：0x52, Bit：0 to 1, Value：0 to 3
・When you write to the register the number of the memory bank from which the setting value is to be read out,
the setting value is read out from the internal memory and set.
3) Memory reset Address：0x53, Bit：0 to 1, Value：0 to 3
・When you write to the register the number of the memory bank to be reset, the initial factory setting value isread out from the internal memory and set.

Cannot turn on power
Shooting image is not displayed

Check item
- Check the connection of the camera adapter and power cable.
- Check the connection of the camera link cable and camera cable.
- Check that the camera register settings are correct.
- Check that the dip switch settings are correct.
- Check that lens aperture is not closed.
- Check that the grabber board is installed and set up correctly.
Frame drop occurs on shooting - In the PCI bus system, a frame dropping may occur because theimagetransfer rate is too slow for the amount of data to be transferred. Ensurethat no frame dropping occurs with a grabber board and PC for PCI
Express x4.
- If more than one boards are installed in the PCI slots, remove the otherboards.
Shooting image remains still- Check that the camera is not in the random trigger mode.
- Check the setting of the grabber board.
- Check the connection of the camera link cable.
Cannot control camera from PC- Check the connection of the camera link cable.
- Check the dip switch setting (communication speed setting).
