Figure 2: ML-FM-16K15A-00-R Pixel Structure
The ML-HM-16K15A camera operates with a single high sensitivity line output only. There is no
difference in camera operation when the scanning direction is changed.
Camera Processing Chain
The diagram below details the sequence of arithmetic operations performed on the cameras sensor
data, which the user can adjust to obtain an optimum image for their application. These
adjustments are performed using camera features outlined in the ‘Review of Camera Performance
and Features’ section.
Supported Industry Standards
GenICam™
The camera is GenICam compliant and implements a superset of the GenICam Standard Features
Naming Convention specification V1.5.
This description takes the form of an XML device description file using the syntax defined by the
GenApi module of the GenICam specification. The camera uses the GenICam Generic Control
Protocol (GenCP V1.0) to communicate over the Camera Link HS command lane.
For more information see www.genicam.org.
Camera Link HS
The camera is Camera Link HS version 1.0 compliant. Camera Link HS is the next generation of
high performance communications standards. It is used where an industrial digital camera
interfaces with a single or multiple frame grabbers and with data rates exceeding those supported
by the standard Camera Link.
The cameras come with two different output mediums. The ML-FM camera models use two LC
connectors for data output. These two LC connectors are part of the SFP+ standard but in the case
of Linea ML 8K camera the SFP+ modules are built into the camera. Either one or both SFP+
modules can be used but using only one SFP+ / fiber optic will sacrifice available bandwidth.
