XC-E series OUTLINE The XC-ES30/30CE, XC-ES50/50CE, XC-EI30/30CE, and XC-EI50/50CE are industrial black-and-white video camera modules, each using a 1/3- or 1/2-inch IT CCD. The 1/3- and 1/2-inch C mount commonly used in industrial applications implements compact size and lightweight. Switching of each mode on the rear panel, which has been installed from the XC-ST series, is followed to provide improved operability. The XC-EI series uses a CCD which is sensitive on a near infrared area to ca

XC-E series ELECTRONIC SHUTTER External trigger shutter These modes are used to capture one image (one field) per trigger pulse. Set DIP switches 6, 7, and 8 on the rear panel to mode 1 or 2. (Refer to the table below.) When the trigger pulse width is 1/3 sec or more, the output signal is switched to a normal video signal. There are two modes for timing in which a video signal is obtained. • Mode 1 (Non-reset mode) In this mode, a video signal synchronized with a VD signal is output after a trig

XC-E series RESTART RESET (R.R) The information on one screen can be extracted at any time by inputting a restart/reset signal (HD/VD) from the outside. To enter this mode, set DIP switches 6, 7, and 8 on the rear panel of a camera as shown in the table below. The setting is especially effective for the following operation.
