Progressive-scan CCD produces high-precision, high- speed images. The XCG-V60E equips a 330,000-pixel CCD that enables image output at 90 frames per second. The XCG-SX97E equips a 1,450,000-pixel CCD that enables image output at 16 frames per second.
Notes on Operation Typical CCD Phenomena The following effects on the monitor screen are Power supply characteristic of CCD cameras. You can supply power via the DC IN connector using the They do not indicate any fault with the camera module. power adapter.
System Components The Camera Module system comprises the following optional products (sold separately from the Camera Module). This is a small-size, high-resolution, video camera module using a progressive scan CCD image sensor. Camera Module This is attached to the DC IN connector of the camera module and is used for power supply and exchange of trigger signals.

Triggering Special Trigger Modes The camera can be triggered by hardware or software The three special trigger modes are Normal, Bulk and triggering events. Sequential triggering. Hardware Triggering Normal trigger mode Hardware triggering is performed by applying a signal The Normal mode outputs images continuously to an input on the 12-pin connector.
Sequential trigger mode Image Parameters • Image Size (H) Different camera setting configurations are stored in • Image Size (V) memory channels beforehand, with the different settings • Pixel Format applied in sequence to acquire a different image with • Binning each trigger event.
Manual gain control The multi-function output settings determine the Variable gain control in models XCG-V60E/ function of the camera’s output connector pins for GPO XCG-SX97E/XCG-U100E can be set from 0 to 18 dB in (general-purpose signal output), exposure signal output 0.0358 dB increments, or from 0 to 502 in 0.0358 dB...
The camera provides a digital gain function. Gain values adjust image black level. are from 1X to 2X (0 to 64, in 0.015625X increments). In the XCG-V60E/XCG-SX97E/XCG-U100E, the level can be set from 0 to 2047. Note In the XCG-5005E, the level can be set from each When using digital gain, discontinuity may occur in the camera’s lower limit value to 2047.
Frame Rate Control Memory Channels and User Memories The camera provides the following two methods for frame rate control during internal continuous drive operation. Memory channels Sixteen memory channels are provided for camera Auto Frame Rate setting parameters that can be switched at each frame when The fastest frame rate is configured automatically using bulk and sequential trigger modes.
