Product Description
The Cohu 5930 series is a long wavelength (LWIR) Infrared microbolometer based camera system. The
embeddable electronics provides the foundation for the processing and signal generation for the camera.
Below is a description of all the different aspects that make up the complete camera assembly.

1.3 Camera Operation
This Camera has a multitude of operational and configuration settings which can be adjusted via
software control. Typically only a few settings or adjustments require attention once the Camera
is embedded into a specific application. A complete list of adjustable settings and software
features can be found in Paragraph 3 of this Document.
Cohu Electronics provides a host software application (Camera Control Interface) that can be
used for generic camera control and camera setup. For specific information on the capabilities of
this application please refer to Cohu CCI manual. Cohu Electronics also sells a developer's
software guide for end-users that intend on designing a custom software interface for their own
application. Contact the Cohu’s Product Manager for more information on how to develop you
own application for this camera.
1.4 Lens Options
The camera is equipped with a lens mount with a specific internal thread to accept a series of
watertight, fixed focus, f/1.4 Infrared lenses. See Table 4 for the f/1.4 lens options. The lenses
are designed with the front lens element sealed for NEMA 4 and IP67 water resistance rating. All
these lenses have the front lens element Diamond Carbon Coated for added resistance against
weather and scratching.

1.6 Mechanical Characteristics
The Camera dimensions are as shown in Figure 3. These dimensions show the Camera without
a lens or mating connector. The mating connector adds about 2.0" to the rear of the camera
which includes room for the cable's bend radius. The different focal length lenses are larger as
they go up in focal length. This will add to the length of the camera depending on the lens focal
length.
Figure 3 - Camera Dimensions
2. Installation
This section describes everything from removing the camera from the box to how to connect the camera
to external devices.
2.1 Unpacking and Receiving Inspection.
The camera was tested and carefully packed at Cohu Electronics. Upon acceptance by the
carrier, they should assume responsibility for its safe arrival. Should you receive this item in
damaged condition, claims for shipping damage must be filed against the carrier.
To return the camera to the factory for any other service, please contact Cohu Electronics
Customer Service Department for a Return Authorization Number.
2.2 Lens Cleaning.
The lens provided with this Camera has the front lens element diamond carbon coated. Even
though this coating is very tough, the following cleaning procedures should be adhered to. A light
dusting of air should be enough to dislodge most dust particles, although small amounts of dust
should not affect camera performance. If necessary to clean the front surface, use 75% isopropyl
alcohol and a lens tissue. Use a clean section of tissue with each swipe so as to
not drag dirt back on the front lens surface.

2.3 Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions.
The installation procedures in this user's manual do not require entry into the Enclosure of the
Camera. However in the event that the camera needs to be opened as directed by Cohu
Electronics , the following ESD precautions should be followed:
Use a conductive pad on whatever work space used.
Connect the conductive pad to earth ground through a 1MΩresistor.
Use a wrist strap connected to earth ground through a 1MΩresistor when working with the
equipment.
Maintain the relative humidity above 30%. Working on this circuitry with a relative humidity
below 30% requires more extreme ESD precautions not specified in this document.
Use antistatic bags to store and transport any electronic components or circuit board
assemblies removed from this Camera. Use new antistatic bags as old antistatic bags can
lose their static protection after use.
2.4 Tripod Mounting Interface
The camera has a tripod mounting plate clamped to the bottom of the Camera. The Tripod mount
has five mounting threads (0.250-20UNC-2B) separated as shown in Figure 4. This provides two
center-to-center mountings, being 1.75”and 1”bolt patterns. Insure the mounting arm/fixture
supports one of these mounting bolt patterns.

2.6.2 Mating Digital Signal Connector
The connector that mates with the digital signal connector of the Camera is manufactured by
fischer and the part number is S 1031 A019-150+. All the signals in this connector are Low
Voltage Differential (LVDS) which requires a mating cable that uses 100Ωtwisted pairs. Belden
cable 9808 (7 100Ωtwisted pair with overall foil/braided shield) will work for this application or
any equivalent cable.
This connector requires a mating environmental clamp set sold by fischer to ensure the sealing
between the connector and cable used. See Table 8 for fischer environmental cable clamp part
numbers for corresponding cable diameter ranges. The connector and environmental cable
clamp must be assembled as described on page N2 in the fischer General Catalogue, Edition 5.

2.7 Power Input Selection
The camera input power is specified by model configuration when originally ordered from Cohu
Electronics, and is delivered to accept the specified voltage configuration of 120VAC, or 24VAC
or 12VDC. Refer to Table 6 for connector pin assignments.
Cohu Electronics offers a suite of field cable assemblies for providing connections from the
camera to the users control/monitoring system or transmission backbone. Refer to Cohu
Electronics CA290 series data sheet for selection of the proper cable to meet specific
requirements.
2.7.1 AC Line Input Voltage Connections
The Camera is delivered to accept 120VAC or 24VAC Line voltage. If it is determined the
ordered/delivered voltage format of the camera system is not the desired voltage level, the input
voltage can be changed. A connector should be plugged into header J1 or J2 located as shown in
Figure 6 (Figure 6 is drawn without Transformer Support Plate and mating connectors for clarity).
Warning: Never power the Camera up with a connector plugged into headers J1 and J2
simultaneously. This may provide a risk of electric shock on the main rear panel
connector.
2.7.2 24VAC Input Voltage Connections
The Camera can be configured to accept 24VAC instead of AC Line voltage. To accomplish this,
the connector plugged into header J1 should be unplugged. The two position connector that is
