Classicationofthesafetyinstructions
In the User´s Guide, the safety instructions are classied as follows:
Notice
Gives helpful notes on operation or other general recommendations.
Caution
P i ctogram
Indicates a possibly dangerous situation. If the situation is not avoided, slight
or minor injury could result or the device may be damaged.

General safety instructions2.
Observe the following safety instruction when using the camera to avoid any damage or
injuries.
Caution
Provide adequate dissipation of heat, to ensure that the temperature does
not exceed +60°C (+140°F).
The surface of the camera may be hot during operation and immediately
after use. Be careful when handling the camera and avoid contact over a
longer period.
Intended Use3.
The camera is used to capture images that can be transferred over two GigE interfaces
to a PC.

6.1.1 QuantumEfciencyforBaumerSXGCameras
The quantum efciency characteristics of monochrome and color matrix sensors for
Baumer SXG cameras are displayed in the following graphs. The characteristic curves for
the sensors do not take the characteristics of lenses and light sources without lters into
consideration, but are measured with an AR coated cover glass.
Values relating to the respective technical data sheets of the sensors manufacturer.

6.1.2 Progressive Scan
All cameras of the SXG series are equipped with Progressive Scan.
Pixel
Active Area (Photodiode)
Storage Area
Microlens
Progressive Scan means that all pixels of the sensor are reset and afterwards exposed
for a specied interval (texposure).
For each pixel an adjacent storage area exists. Once the exposure time elapsed, the
information of a pixel is transferred immediately to its storage area and read out from
there.
Due to the fact that photosensitive surface gets "lost" by the implementation of the storage
area, the pixels are mostly equipped with microlenses, which focus the light to the pixels
active area.
