2 Introduction
2.1 Intended use
The camera EoSens® Creation 2.0XGE belongs to the product class of so-called
high-speed machine vision (MV) cameras that are integrated into test or meas-
urement systems.
High-speed MV cameras are designed to capture images with high frame rate for
various purposes in an industrial or scientific environment to deliver image data for
further analysis. The images are transmitted to a frame grabber on a connected com-
puter where they can be evaluated with the help of a software.
Other uses
Any other use is regarded as unintended use and leads to the loss of guarantee and
liabilities. Contact the manufacturer for other uses.
These products are designed for industrial applications only. The cameras are not
designed for life support systems where malfunction of the products might result in
any risk of personal harm or injury.

3 The camera
3.1 Camera description
The benefits of the CMOS technology are high speed, random access to pixels with
free programmability and low power consumption.
The size and position of the region of interest and the speed of data output are free to
define. The frame rate can be set to several thousand fps, depending on the res-
olution and video data width, with output via the Gigabit Ethernet Vision interface.
The parameter sets are called profiles and can be stored in non volatile memory.
MIKROTRON GigE Vision cameras are designed for machine vision applications.
The GigEVision connection is established by a sensor-to-image core.
INFO Refer to the PT1000 documentation for further information.
The camera electronic is enclosed in a compact and solid full metal housing robust
enough to comply with the requirements in heavy industrial surroundings. A standard
Ethernet cable CAT6 a or higher, or OM3-Fiber will support this.
XGE cameras can be equipped with standard C-mount or F-mount lenses made for
industrial purpose.
The color and monochrome cameras EoSens® Creation 2.0XGE are supplied with
the following features:
lAnalog / digital gain
lBlack level adjustment
lFirmware update in the field
lFPN correction
lImage information field
lGamma correction
lTest images
lUser profiles
Bayer filter
The sensor of the EoSens color cameras is supplied with a Bayer color filter. In order
to get the color information, the imaging software has to decode the information of
each pixel into red, green, and blue (RGB) by using the values of its neighboring
pixels. Each red, green and blue filter element covers exactly one pixel on the sensor.
A matrix of 2x2 filter elements builds a filter element matrix. A Bayer pattern image
therefore must have an even number of pixels and an even number of lines. The
ordering of the RGB pixels for each sensor is provided in the section on technical
data.
9

UV/IR cut filter
In addition, color cameras are equipped with an UV/IR cut filter. Light with
wavelengths between 370nm and 670nm will be transmitted. As CMOS sensors are
susceptible to UV and IR rays outside the visible spectrum, UV/IR filter avoid blurred
images and therefore improve color images.
3.2 Operating temperature
If the camera is mounted on mechanical parts, the heat generated during operation
will be dissipated by the optionally attached fan, the cooling fins at the rear of the
camera, and the mechanical parts.
NOTICE The camera body temperature must not exceed the values specified in the technical
data (see "Technical data" on page16).
In case of overheating, the camera will automatically be switched off and the com-
munication between camera and PC will be interrupted.
INFO Durability of the camera will be reduced when being operated in an environment
that is constantly exceeding the maximum permissible operating temperature. In this
case, take additional cooling measures as described below.
NOTICE The camera is not intended for use on an isolated mounting plate or in a closed
housing because the temperature of the camera will rise continuously.
3.3 Additional cooling
INFO If the camera is e.g. mounted on a sturdy aluminum structure, not only cooling is
ensured but also a stable optical path. In addition, vibrations will be minimized
within the entire system.
If the ambient temperature is constantly exceeding 40°C, additional cooling is recom-
mended. This can be achieved by
lAir- or water-cooling system
lAir-conditioned housings
