1. Handling Precautions
The camera module must not be used for any nuclear equipments or aerospace equipments with which
mechanical failure or malfunction could result in serious bodily injury or loss of human life. Our warranty does
not apply to damages or defects caused by irregular and/or abnormal use of the product.
Please observe all warnings and cautions stated below.
Our warranty does not apply to damages or malfunctions caused by neglecting these precautions.
Do not use or store the camera in the dusty or humid places.
Do not apply excessive force, vibration or static electricity that could damage the camera. Handle the
camera with caution.
Do not shoot direct images that are extremely bright (e.g., light source, sun, etc.), and when camera is not in
use, please put the lens cap on. When extremely strong light source is shot, smear or blooming may occur.
Follow the instructions in Chapter 6, “External Connector Pin Assignment”for connecting the camera module.
Improper connection may cause damages not only to the camera module but also to the connected devices.
Confirm the mutual ground potential carefully before connecting the camera to other equipments. AC leaks
from the connected devices may cause damages or destroy the camera.
Do not apply excessive voltage. (Use only the specified voltage.) Unstable or improper power supply
voltage may cause damages or malfunction of the camera assembly.
The voltage ripple of camera power DC+12V±10% shall be within ±50mV. Improper power supply voltage
may cause noises on the video signals.
The rising time of camera power supply voltage shall be less than +10V, Max 60ms. Please avoid noises like
chattering when rising.
Precautions to observe when using partial mode.
At vertical partial scan mode, the smaller the value of read-out lines is set, the faster the camera exposure output
speed goes, and the more the power consumption is required at the same time.
Power requirement when the minimum read-out line is set with partial scan will be approx 5.0W, while the one with
full frame scan will be approx.4.5W. Naturally, heat of the camera will be increased.
Especially when the read-out line is set in the range of 50 lines to 1 line, heat dissipation is recommended to install the
camera.
Installation recommended.
・Install the camera to the place with ambient temperature under 40 ℃.
・Install the camera to a metallic component.
