within 1/54s at CL Base Configuration output.
Features
□ Global Shutter CMOS sensor is utilized.
□ Camera Link Base Configuration is supported.
□ Fixed trigger shutter mode.
□ Binning mode(2x2), VGA mode, QVGA mode.
2. Handling Precautions
The camera must not be used for any nuclear equipment or aerospace equipment with which mechanical
failure or malfunction could result in serious bodily injury or loss of human life. Our warranty does not apply to
dameges 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 following extreme conditions :
- Extremely dusty or humid places.
- Extremely hot or cold places (operating temperature -5℃ to +45℃).
- Close to generators of powerful electromagnetic radiation such as radio or TV transmitters.
- Places subject to fluorescent light reflections.
- Places subject to unstable (flickering, etc.) lighting conditions.
- Places subject to strong vibration.
· Remove dust or dirt on the surface of the lens with a blower.
· Do not apply excessive force or static electricity that could damage the camera.
· Do not shoot direct images that are extremely bright (e.g., light source, sun, etc.), and when camera is not
in use, put the lens cap on.
· Confirm the mutual ground potential carefully and then connect the camera to monitors or computers.
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.
· 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.

5.14.Fixed Trigger Shutter Mode
□ This is the mode to start exposure with external input trigger signals, and set the exposure time with serial
commands.
□ Delay time (Exposure Time Delay) from detecting trigger edge in the camera to starting exposure is as below.
Exposure time delay (A)
178 us (8H) *1H = 22.22us
□ Do not input a trigger signal with an exposure setting that will start the next image output during
the exposure period and before the image output is completed.
Possible trigger input interval = Exposure Time Delay + Exposure Time + Effective Line + 18.5H + 27H
Example: Exposure time 1 / 1000s (45H), effective line 962H
Exposure Time Delay 8H + Exposure Time 45H + Effective Line 962H + 45.5H
= 23.57ms (1060.5H)
* 1H = 22.22us
□ Trigger inputs during the exposure period (B) and during image output (C) are ignored in the camera.

6. Scan Mode
6.1.Partial scan mode
□ It is possible to increase the frame rate by limiting the vertical scan area.
□ Set the partial area with the communication command.
Vertical start position address: 40 --41
Partial scan number of valid lines Address: 50 – 51
□ Does not work in VGA mode or QVGA mode.
Setting Example
Normal shutter mode
① : V blanking ： 27H
② : Vertical start position ： 120H
③ : Partial scan effective line number ： 480H
④ : Total frame line number ： 507H(①＋③)
Fixed trigger shutter mode *Example : Exposure time : 1/1000s(45H)
① : V blanking ： 53.5H
② : Vertical start position ： 120H
③ : Partial scan effective line number ： 480H
④ : Exposure line number ： 45H

□ Set the start position to 2 x n and the number of valid lines to 4 x n based on 0 (maximum is fixed at 962).
However, the vertical start position + number of effective lines <= 962 must be satisfied.
□ Total number of frames for several hours
Normal shutter mode
= Number of V blanking lines (27H) + Number of valid lines
Fixed trigger shutter mode
= Exposure time + Number of V blanking lines (53.5H) + Number of effective lines
□ Frame Rate = 1 / (Total lines x Time for 1 line)
Time for 1 line = 18.69us (Normal shutter mode) / 22.22us (Fixed trigger shutter mode)

The frame rate of the fixed shutter trigger mode varies depending on the input trigger signal.
This is an example of the MAX frame rate that can be set.

6.2.Binning mode
□ 2 horizontal pixels and 2 vertical pixels are added (averaged) to 1 pixel and output.
□ The number of pixels is 640 x 480, and the amount of transferred data can be reduced without changing the angle of view.
□ The frame rate is the same as the output of all pixels.
□ Set to binning mode with a communication command.

6.3.VGA mode
□ VGA mode 640 x 480 pixels are cut out from all pixels and output.
□ There are fewer lines and the frame rate goes up to 105.51fps.
□ Set to VGA mode with a communication command.
□ The start position can be set by communication command both horizontally and vertically.
Horizontal start position address: 42 – 43 h
Vertical start position address: 40 – 41 h * Similar to partial scan mode
□ Set the start position to 2 x n.
However,
Satisfy the horizontal start position + 640 <= 1284.
