General 

This manual covers the digital monochrome progressive scan camera BM-500GE and 
color progressive scan camera BB-500GE 
 

Part of the C3 Basic family, the BM-500GE/BB-500GE is a GigE Vision compliant camera. Both 
the monochrome version BM-500GE and the color version BB-500GE provide a frame rate of 15 

frames/second at full resolution. Using vertical binning (BM-500GE only), or partial scan 
provides higher frame rates.  
The 2/3" CCD with square pixels offers a superb image quality. The high-speed shutter 
function and asynchronous random trigger mode allows the camera to capture high quality 
images of fast moving objects.  

 

The color version BB-500GE, based on CCD sensor with primary RGB Bayer mosaic filter, 
outputs raw Bayer images. Host-based color interpolation is required to display or save color 
images. The camera features a built-in white balance, eliminating the need for performing 
this function in the host-PC. 
 
The BM-500GE/BB-500GE also complies with the GenICam standards, as it has an internal XML 
file that is used to describe the functions/features of the camera. For further information on 

GenICam please go to www.emva.org 
 
As an application programming interface, JAI provides an SDK (Software Development Kit). 
This SDK includes GigE Vision Filter Driver, JAI Control tool, software documentation and code 
examples.  
The JAI SDK can be downloaded from www.jai.com.
