CV-A10 CL and CV-A70 CL

 

 

1. General 

This manual will cover the digital monochrome progressive scan camera CV-A10 CL, and its 
color version, CV-A70 CL. 

The CV-A10CL is a Camera Link successor for the CV-M10BX/RS cameras. The progressive 
scanned CV-A10CL has a single digital video output as Camera Link. The frame rate for full frame 
is 60 fps. Functions like partial scanning and horizontal and vertical binning allows higher frame 
rates.  
The color version CV-A70 CL is based on a CCD sensor with primary RGB  Bayer mosaic filter. 
CV-A10 CL/A70 CL is a compact monochrome progressive scan camera designed for automated 
imaging applications. The 1/2" 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.  
 

CV-A10CL and CV-A70CL has bee updated to revision B. Some boards have been redesigned.  
Revision C has updated circuits and construction for better performance.
