RMSL8K76CP/RMSL6K76CP/RMSL4K76CP UME-0094-02

A standard approved CoaXPress

cable with appropriate speed and

length is used.

Use a standard approved cable with

appropriate speed and length.

The power source has no fluctuation

in voltage and is not deteriorated.

Use a stable power supply.

The camera could be faulty. Please

contact us for assistance.

When the camera gain is on a high

level, bright spots occur without

incident light.

Secondary radiation (rays) could

cause bright spots, but this is not

malfunction.

Yes
