4. How to Operate
(4-1) Connection method
●
Connection
Refer to the connection example between the camera and peripheral devices (Fig. 4-1).
(1) Remove the cover of the lens attachment section
and attach a lens (option).
(2) Connect the camera head to a power supply unit
(option) with a camera cable (option).
The maximum allowable length of a camera cable
is 25 m.
(3) Set the camera operation modes in accordance
with the setting instructions for the operation
modes and the shutter speed that are described
in another section.
(4) Connect the digital output connectors on the rear
panel of the camera to the input terminals of the
image processing units (frame grabber board,
computer, etc.) with digital cables (option)
conforming to Camera Link STD. The maximum
allowable length between the digital output
connector of the camera and the input terminal of
said image processing unit is 10m.
(5) Confirm the connecting condition before turning on the power switch of the camera.
In 1 or 2 seconds after the power is turned on, the LED operation indicator on the rear panel of the camera changes
from orange to green to show that the camera is in operation.
(Note) It is required that the capture board should have the color conversion function (Bayer to RGB conversion) to obtain
color images by this camera.
(Note) The maximum allowable lengths of the camera cable and the digital cable aforementioned are not for the purpose
of guaranteeing the operation of the camera. Proper image signals may not be obtained even when the cables are
within the allowable ranges, depending on the installation conditions of the camera, cables in use and others.
[Important]
(Note) Make sure to turn off the power switch of the camera before connecting or disconnecting the camera cable.
If the cable is connected or disconnected while the power is supplied, troubles may be caused.
(Note) Make sure to turn off the camera and connected devices in advance when the camera is connected.
(Note) When a power supply unit other than Takenaka’s product that are separately sold is used, make sure that it
complies with the following rated specifications:
Power supply voltage:
DC12V±10%
Current capacity: 500mA or over
Take into consideration the fact that inrush current of about 1A flows in when power is applied.
Ripple voltage:
50mVp-p or less (recommended value)
Connector:
12 pin connector 1 pin (GND), 2 pins (+12VDC)
(Note) Some power supply units other than TAKENAKA’s products have different layout of power connection pins. Make
sure to check the compatibility of the power supply unit and the camera connection pins in advance.
Carefully note that any failure associated with power application to out-of-specification pins and others is subject to
charged repair.
