14.3 Temperature Variations and Focus
The CC5MPX can operate under extreme temperature variations. The focus of the
lens can change slightly with large variations in temperature. For example, if a lens
is focused at +35°C, the lens may be slightly out of focus at -40°C. The change in
focus will be less noticeable if the focus is adjusted closer to the camera’s
operating temperature.
14.4 Lens IR Cut Filter
The CC5MPX is internally equipped with an IR cut filter. The filter is required to
filter out near infrared light that can have an undesirable effect on the images.
15. Power Calculations and Timings
The CC5MPX was specifically designed for operation in power-contrained systems
such as solar powered sites. It is critical in such systems that the camera be
properly configured to meet the constraints of the intended application. This
section outlines the power consumption of the camera for purposes of power
supply design for a system.
15.1 Standalone Operation
In standalone mode, the camera operates as a self-contained image and video
logger. Files will be stored onto the internal SD memory card.
The current draw of the camera is mainly dictated by the quiescent current draw of
the Power Mode, plus the current draw when the camera enters the Fully On power
mode (Active Current Draw) to acquire an image or video. TABLE 15-1 shows
