5.3 In Operation
(1) Does an acquisition time out error occur?
<Cause>
<1> Captured images are too large.
If there are many filtering processes, the assignments to the driver may be
insufficient.
<2> The cable is detached from the connector
Ensure that the power cable and Camera Link cables are connected to the camera
firmly.
<3> Camera Link cables are susceptible to noise when the cables are laid near a
light source inverter line or a power line. The personal computer in use may freeze
and need to be reset.
(2) Are there dark lines in the direction of vertical scanning on the image?
<Cause>
<1> Dust on the sensor window
Dust may get onto the sensor window from the inside or the outside of the camera.
Remove the dust with air or a lens cleaner.
6 Sensor Handling Instructions
6.1 Electrostatic Discharge and the Sensor
CMOS sensors are susceptible to damage from electrostatic discharge and can
become defective.
6.2 Protecting Against Dust, Oil and Scratches
The CMOS sensor window is part of the optical path and should be handled like
other optical components with care. If you use the camera in a dusty area, prepare a
dust-proof enclosure. Dust can obscure pixels, producing dark lines on the image.
6.3 Cleaning the Sensor Window
Dust: Can usually be removed by blowing the window surface using a compressed
air blower.
Oil: Wipe the window with a lint-free cloth wiper moistened with ethyl alcohol
carefully and slowly.
