BLACK-and-WHITE VIDEO CAMERA MODULE
XC-HR90
The XC-HR90 is an analog interface camera with high-speed,
high-quality picture output of approximately 1.25 megapixels
(SXGA) at a standard frame rate of 30 fps, with a compact
size that makes it ideal for use in combination with industrial
equipment.
Other features include a partial scan function that enables
faster image read-out, and settings that can be made via the
rear panel or remotely via RS-232C serial interface.

About the Electronic Shutter
1VIDEO OUT/DC IN/SYNC (video output/DC power/sync
input signal) connector (12-pin connector)
Connect a CCXC-12P05N camera cable to this connector to
obtain power from the +12 V DC power supply and also to enable
video signal output from the camera module. When a sync signal
generator is connected to this connector, the camera module is
synchronized with the external sync signals (HD/VD signals).
2M Gain (Manual Gain) control knob
If you have selected MANUAL (manual adjustment) with DIP
switch 4, this knob adjusts the gain.
3Shutter speed/Mode setting DIP switch
1Shutter speed (bits 1 to 4)
Set an appropriate shutter speed (factory setting: OFF).
2Partial scan mode switch (5)
The factory setting of this switch is partial scan OFF.
3Restart reset/External trigger shutter mode switch (bits 6 to 8)
By inputting an external restart/reset signal, you can capture the
information of single screens at arbitrary timing. By inputting an
external trigger signal, you can capture imaging information on
fast-moving objects at a precise moment in time. The factory
settings for these switches are for normal operation
(restart/reset and external trigger shutter OFF).
4Gain switch (bit 9)
This switch selects FIX (xed) or MANUAL (manual adjustment)
(factory setting: FIX (left side)).
5Binning mode switch (bit 0)
Switches the video signal output mode between binning OFF and
binning ON (factory setting: OFF).
4Mode setting DIP switch
675 Ω termination switch
Turn this to OFF (switch down position) when not terminating the
external sync signal. The factory setting of this switch is ON (switch
up position).
7HD/VD signal input/output switch
Set the switch to the down position (INT) to output HD/VD signals
from the camera module, and set it to the up position (EXT) to
input HD/VD signals from an external unit. The factory setting for
this switch is the up position (EXT).
Note
Even when the switch is in the up position (EXT), the camera operates in
internal synchronization mode unless an external HD signal is input. In this
case, however, the camera module will not output internal sync signals.

This camera can be controlled via a host device (such as a personal
computer). The table below shows the functions that can be
controlled. The camera can be controlled by sending commands that
correspond to the control items, with parameters for the desired
settings, if necessary, from the host device.
About the Camera Control Method
Make sure to supply power to the camera module and conrm that the camera module is
operating before inputting an external sync or trigger signal. Inputting an external signal before
supplying the power may cause the camera module to malfunction.
Note: When using the external sync in combination with control from a host device (such as a
personal computer), make sure the frequency is within the specied range. The camera cannot
be controlled when the input is outside the specied frequency range.

Note
Be sure to turn the power off before making switch settings. As the variable
controller for manual adjustment is a small precise component, do not
apply force more than required when adjusting. Doing so will break the
component. The controller is not a 360-degree rotation type. Do not turn
the controller beyond the stopper of the component. The range of rotation
is about 230 degrees. For the adjustment of the variable controller, use a
athead screwdriver. The sizes of a recommended athead screwdrivers
are 1.9 mm width, 0.5 mm thickness and more than 0.45 mm length.

The shutter will be off when the DIP
swich is set as below.
This mode provides continuous video output with the electronic
shutter selected by switches to capture a high-speed moving
object clearly.
Normal shutter speed settings•
(Unit: seconds)
Inputting an external trigger pulse enables the camera to capture
fast-moving objects clearly with precise timing.
Set DIP switches 6, 7, and 8 on the rear panel to Mode 1 or Mode 2.
When you set the trigger pulse width to 1/3 of a second or more, the
output signal changes to the normal VIDEO signal.
To Set the External Trigger Shutter
There are two ways to set the shutter speed.
Using trigger pulse width•
Set all DIP switches (1 to 4 on the rear panel) to OFF.
You can obtain an arbitrary shutter speed by setting the trigger
pulse width to the range of 2
μ
sec to 250 msec.
Exposure time = Trigger pulse width + 5

To Set Restart/Reset Mode
The information on one screen can be extracted at any time by
externally inputting restart/reset signals (HD/VD). To enter this mode,
set the trigger shutter switches (6 to 8) on the rear panel of the
camera as shown in the gure below.
To use restart/reset mode and Partial scan mode simultaneously, set
the Partial scan mode switch (5) to ON (right side).

The Restart/Reset function extends the CCD accumulation time,
resulting in highly sensitive image capture. This function is effective
when you cannot gain satisfactory sensitivity under normal operating
conditions, or when you want to observe the trail of a moving object.
Extend the VD interval (T) between external VD pulses.

Mode 1 Mode 2
There are two modes for the timing in which video signals are obtained.
Mode 1 (Non-reset mode)•
In this mode, a video signal synchronized with a VD signal is
output after a trigger pulse is input.
– The video signal is synchronized with the external VD signal
when an external HD*/VD signal is input.
– The video signal is synchronized with an internal VD signal when
no external HD*/VD signal is input.
* External or internal synchronization is selected automatically depending on the
presence or absence of external HD input.
Mode 2 (Reset mode)•
In this mode, an internal VD is reset, then a video signal is output
a certain period of time after trigger pulse input.
Note
High-rate scan mode cannot be used while
in external trigger shutter mode 2.
