!!!!! CAUTION Do NOT connect/disconnect connectors with power ON. Before connecting/disconnecting connectors, make sure to check if the system is powered OFF. Doing so with power ON may cause a damage or an electric shock accident. Do NOT give a strong shock/impact against the camera-head. Avoid giving a strong shock against the camera head. The camera-head might be damaged. Do NOT pull/swing the cable forcefully. Do not pull strongly the camera cable/camera-head nor swing it. The stress from pulling or swinging may cause damage in the coating of the cable, or breaks in the inside wires. In carrying the camera around, be sure to disconnect connection cables/lines beforehand. Otherwise, the connection cable(s)/line(s) might be damaged, causing a fire or an electric shock accident. If the camera is operated in the electromagnetic field, there may be cases where beat noises (vertical, horizontal, or oblique stripes) may appear in the video output. In that case, take preventive measures on the electromagnetic-wave generating source so that the camera do not receive the interference by the electromagnetic-wave. Take extra precautions against electromagnetic-wave-interference if the camera is used with a servomotor, inverter, or other electromagnetic-wave-generating equipment. When the camera is not in use, put a lens or a lens-cap onto the camera head so that the image pickup plane of CCD is protected from dust, foreign object, or other flaw-causing object. If the glass plane (image pickup plane) gets dirty, clean it with a cotton swab. When it needs to be cleaned with a cleaner, be sure NOT to use any organic solvent other than ethyl alcohol. As a countermeasure against condensation, when the camera is moved from a warm place to a cold place, take appropriate precautions to prevent condensation from forming on the camera.

1. Product description Model CS3920 is an integrated (one-body) type B/W CCD camera employing a 1/2 type frame-read-out CCD, featuring its ultra-high resolution of active 2,000,000 pixels. 2. Features (1) Ultra-high resolution CS3920 features an ultra-high picture resolution through the adoption of a MEGA-pixel CCD (Total pixel counts: 2,100,000 Active pixel counts: 2,000,000 [1,636(H) 1,236(V)]. (2) Square grid pattern CCD Pixel's in this CCD are aligned in square grid pattern. This makes it easier to perform computation correctly for image processing use. (3) Random trigger shutter function Random trigger shutter, which starts light-exposure in synchronization with external trigger signals, is build in. This function enables the camera to capture images at any given timing. Shutter speed is selectable among 8 scales, from 1/30s through 1/10000s. (4) Digital output Other than conventional analog output, digital output (EIA-644 single channel 10 bit) is also available. (5) High-speed draft mode By reading out just 2 lines out of total 8 lines, pixel data in all effective image area are read out in just 1/4 of the time needed under frame read-out mode. Under the high-speed draft mode, output lines will be 325 lines. 3. Configuration (1) Camera body 1 (2) Accessory Operation Manual 1 4.

Under ON (= FRM) setting, both the 1st and 2nd field (=1 frame) data are output in response to one trigger input. Under the FRM output setting, CCD exposure is done twice inside the camera. This causes 1-field timing delay. (5)RTS (Random Trigger Shutter) Pulse Control The camera starts light-exposure at the TRIG signal falling-edge timing. The exposure-time is determined by pulse length. Be sure to set the pulse interval longer than 1H (approximately 103μs). The TRIG interval should be set longer than 2V (approximately 133ms).
