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.

5.6.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.
(1) Trigger Hsync Mode OFF ： 0.15 us fixed
(2) Trigeer Hsync Mode ON ： 0.15 us + max1HD
・2Tap Base Configuration 0.15us + max 1HD (14.586us)
・3Tap Base Configuration max 1HD (13.414us)
□ Triggers can be accepted even when outputting video signals.
However, trigger signals for exposure to start the next video output prior to the completion of video transmission
for the prior video output signals can not be accepted.
□ Trigger input during exposure time should be ignored. (Refer to the below A)

5.7.Pulse Width Trigger Shutter Mode
□ This is the mode to start exposure with external input trigger signals, and set the exposure time with
pulse width of the trigger signals.
□ Delay time (Exposure Time Delay) from detecting trigger edge in the camera to starting exposure, and from
detecting trigger end edge to completing exposure is as below.
(1) Trigger Hsync Mode OFF ： 0.15 us fixed
(2) Trigeer Hsync Mode ON ： 0.15 us + max1HD
・2Tap Base Configuration 0.15us + max 1HD (14.586us)
・3Tap Base Configuration max 1HD (13.414us)
□ Pulse width is min. 1HD (min) to approx. 2 frames.
Functionally, there is no upper limitation, but noises such as dark noises and shadings may be noticeable
at long time exposure.
□ Triggers can be accepted even when outputting video signals.
However, trigger signals for exposure to start the next video output prior to the completion of video transmission
for the prior video output signals can not be accepted.
