RovoCam UltaHD HDBaseT Camers System v1.0r2
Other
• Design and specifications are subject to change without notice.
• Do not apply excessive voltage. (Use only the specified voltage.) Otherwise, you may
get an electric shock or a fire may occur.
• The CMOS image sensor and IC included in this camera may break if exposed to static
electricity. When directly handling this camera, wear an antistatic strap, spread a
conductive sheet or similar item under your workbench, and take measures to
eliminate static electricity.
• In case of abnormal operation, contact AJA support or the store where you purchased
the product.
Phenomena Specific
to CMOS Image
Sensors
The following phenomena that may appear in images are specific to CMOS image
sensors. They do not indicate malfunctions.
Rolling Shutter
As CMOS image sensors use shutters that capture images line-by-line, there is a slight
time difference between the top and bottom of an image. As a result, images may appear
skewed if the camera is moved.
White Flecks
Although the CMOS image sensors are produced with high-precision technologies, fine
white flecks may be generated on the screen in rare cases, caused by cosmic rays, etc.
This is related to the principle of CMOS image sensors and is not a malfunction.
The white flecks especially tend to be seen in the following cases:
• When operating at a high environmental temperature
• When you have raised the master gain (sensitivity)
• When operating in Slow-Shutter mode
Aliasing
When fine patterns, stripes, or lines are shot, they may appear jagged or flicker.
Phenomena Specific
to Lenses
Ghosting
If a strong light source (e.g., the sun) exists near the incidence angle of the lens, bright
spots may appear in the image due to diffuse reflection within the lens.
