6. Functions and Operations
6.1. Before starting
6.2. Basic functions
The AM-1600CL / AB-1600CL camera is a progressive scan camera with a16-mega pixel
monochrome or Bayer mosaic color CCD. The interface to the host PC is via digital Camera Link.
Both models output digital video as 8-, 10- or 12-bits. The output through Camera Link connector
is 2 channels, pixel interleaved output. The color version, AB-1600CL, outputs raw Bayer video,
requiring host-based color interpolation. The camera also features several pre-processing
functions (see chapter 6.3)
The camera has a partial scan function selectable as user programmable. It also features
horizontal, vertical and horizontal plus vertical binning modes (AM-1600CL only) for faster frame
rates and increased sensitivity.
There are 2 trigger modes in addition to continuous operation. The Pre-Select and Pulse Width
trigger modes are available with a unique automatic LVAL sync or a-sync selection function.
The functions are described in detail below.
6.2.1. Digital Video Output (Bit Allocation)
The 10-bit digital output is set 890 LSB as 100% video level when CCD output is 200mV.
The white clip level is set at 1023 LSB when CCD output is 230mV.

Important Note for operation of AM-1600CL and AB-1600CL
AM-1600CL and AB-1600CLcameras use OS (Operating System) inside. Due to this, it is
important to pay special attention when using the camera control tool.
1. The camera cannot communicate with the camera control tool until the LED turns to
GREEN which is approx. 30 seconds.
2. After the camera control tool is initiated, push “Refresh” and then “Connect” for
establishing the communication. Then click the “Refresh Tab” to view the status of
the camera on each window: Gain & Offset, General, Image Processing and Utilities.
It is also necessary to do this for restart.
