November 3, 1998 TM-7200/TM-6200 High Resolution Digital CCD Camera Operation Manual 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Product Description The PULNiX TM-7200/TM-6200 CCD camera is a high resolution monochrome shutter camera with asynchronous reset capability and a built-in video frame memory. The TM-7200/TM-6200 is designed as a basic machine vision or automated inspection imaging sensor that provides low cost image capture and storage functions right in the camera. 1.
INTRODUCTION 1.3 Functional Options • Frame mode setting for full frame integration (OP60) • Continuous sync output during reset (OP51) • Remoted imager (OP10-1) • AGC Enable (OP1-2) • Internal IR cut filter (OP3-1) • Optical Filter Removal (OP3-2) • Gamma Adjust to 0.45 (OP4-1) • Glassless CCD Imager (OP21) 1.4 Applications The TM-7200/TM-6200 is designed as a basic machine vision or automated inspection imaging sensor.
INSTALLATION 2 INSTALLATION The following instructions are provided to help you to set up your video camera system quickly and easily. It is suggested that you read through these instructions prior to unpacking and setting up your camera system. 2.1 Getting Started 2.1.1 Unpacking Instructions It is recommended that the original packing cartons for the cameras and lenses be saved in case there is a need to return or exchange an item.
INSTALLATION 2.2 Camera Setup 2.2.1 Rear Panel FIGURE 1.

INSTALLATION 2.2.2 (b) 31-Pin Connector 16 1 The TM-7200/TM-6200 has a 31-pin connector for digital output.
INSTALLATION 2.2.3 (b) PULNiX Power Cables If you are using PULNiX power cables, such as the 12P-02, KC-10, etc., please refer to the pin-out diagram. The color coded leads use Grey for Ground and Yellow for +12V DC. FIGURE 2.
INSTALLATION 2.2.3 (e) Attaching the Power Cable to the Connector The 12-pin connector is keyed and will only fit in one orientation. Rotate the connector while applying slight pressure until the keyways line up. Press the connector into place until firmly seated. The power cord may now be plugged into the 100V AC socket and the camera powered up. 2.2.4 Digital Cable Assembly 2.2.
INSTALLATION 2.2.
INSTALLATION 2.2.6 Attaching the Camera Lens The TM-7200/TM-6200 camera accepts 1/2" or larger format size C-mount lenses. To attach the Cmount lens to the camera, carefully engage the threads and rotate the lens clockwise until it firmly seats on the mounting ring. Do not force the lens if it does not seat properly. Please note that some lenses with extremely long flangebacks may exceed the mounting depth of the camera. 2.2.
OPERATION 3 OPERATION 3.1 Modes of Operation 3.1.1 Shutter Operation The TM-7200/TM-6200 has a substrate drain type shutter mechanism which provides a superb picture at various speeds without smearing. Manual shutter speed control can be selected at 1/60, 1/125, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000, 1/2000, 1/4000, or 1/10,000 sec. rate. 3.1.2 Asynchronous Reset with Shutter The TM-7200/TM-6200's asynchronous reset is flexible and takes external HD for phase locking.
OPERATION There are three modes to control the asynchronous reset and shutter speed, External Pulse Width Mode, Internal Fast Reset Mode and Internal Slow Reset Mode. 3.1.2 (a) External Pulse Width Mode The TM-7200/TM-6200 can be reset with external reset pulse (VINIT). Set the dial switch to “9”.
OPERATION 3.1.2 (b) Internal Fast Reset Mode The video signal has no delay from the reset timing. Shutter speed range is 1/2400 to 1/31,000 sec. Select a dial switch setting from "1" to "4". When the fast reset mode is selected, the camera resets with internal VINIT timing, which is latched to Hd, and video output is also synchronized with internal VINIT timing without further delay. The shutter speed is controlled by the dial switch on the camera’s rear panel. FIGURE 4.
OPERATION 3.1.2 (c) Internal Slow Reset Mode The speed control ranges from 1/120 to 1/950 sec. The video signal starts with internal V. Select a dial switch setting from "1" to "4". With the internal slow reset mode selected, the camera operates the reset and shutter in the same way as the external double pulse control mode. When the external VINIT pulse is applied, internal VINIT is latched to Hd and the second internal VINIT signal is delayed to set up the shutter speed period.
OPERATION 3.1.3 Integration The CCD imager of the TM-7200/TM-6200 can be exposed longer than normal TV timing (16.7 msec.). Because the TM-7200/TM-6200 has an interline transfer chip, a full frame of resolution is achievable with the Frame Mode option (OP60).This feature provides high sensitivity for dark environment applications. Note: A full frame is not available in the shutter mode. Integration is achieved by controlling pin #11 of the 12-pin connector to Low (GND).
OPERATION 3.1.5 Video Output 3.1.5 (a) Async Reset Image Capture With built-in memory, an image can be captured when VINIT pulse is applied. The captured image will be continuously scanned out until the next VINIT pulse occurs. FIGURE 6. Async Reset Image Capture VINIT VD CAPTURED VIDEO NORMAL VIDEO VIDEO REPEATED FIELD 3.1.5 (b) Built-in Memory for Integration Image Capture With EN INT high (enable integration, pin #10), set the integration control (pin #11) to low for integration.
OPERATION 3.1.5 (c) Continuous Sync Output Option (OP51) ) When async reset is applied, video sync is also reset asynchronously. This phenomenon causes video picture rolling or bouncing on the monitor. With this option, a continuous output (no more bouncing or rolling pictures) will be achieved at async reset. FIGURE 8.

OPERATION 3.1.6 (c) Frame Data Valid and Odd/Even Field Valid This is differential line-driven signal with EIA-422 format. It is active high during the transfer of each frame data. During integration, both LDV (Line Data Valid) and FDV (Frame Data Valid) are kept low and restart upon the completion of integration. When F1 is kept high, the camera outputs odd field data; otherwise, even field data is output. FIGURE 10. Frame Data Valid VD 9H VIDEO OUT. 4H 1H OB NON-INTERLACE FDV (DIGITAL) 16.
