Using Rapid Reset Cameras
Cognex uses the term rapid reset to describe electronic shutter control or trigger shutter
control. Cameras that can be used in rapid reset mode include:
•
Sony XC-55 or XC-55 BB camera
•
Sony XC-ST50 or XC-ES50 camera with switch settings in rapid reset mode
•
Pulnix TM-9701 with CCF video format (MVS-8100M+ only)
To use one of these cameras in rapid reset mode with the 8100M or 8100M+, you must
set a jumper for the camera port to which the camera is attached. Table 4 shows the
jumper settings for each camera port. Jumper locations are found in the following
locations:
•
For the 8100M, Style A, see in Figure 15 on page 34
•
For the 8100M, Style B, see Figure 16 on page 35
•
For the 8100M+, see Figure 17 on page 36
Note
Setting jumpers JP10 through JP13 for rapid reset support disables
the use of a light module on that camera port. You cannot use rapid
reset cameras and light modules on the same 8100M or 8100M+
camera port at the same time. However, each camera port can be
set individually, so you can mix rapid reset cameras with other types.
Installing External I/O Equipment
You can connect the following peripheral equipment to the MVS-8100M:
•
One high-speed optically isolated trigger pulse generator to trigger image
acquisitions on one to four monochrome cameras.
•
One high-speed open collector strobe light to allow 8100-controlled illumination of
the scene under one to four monochrome cameras.
