Notes on cable configurations
The presence of lighting equipment and television receivers nearby may result in video and audio noise. In such cases, change the cable configurations or placement.
Notes on attaching the lens
Avoiding dust particles
When attaching the lens to the camera, stray dust and other particles may adhere to the sensor surface and rear surface of the lens. Be careful of the following when attaching the lens.
•Work in a clean environment.
•Do not remove the caps from the camera and lens until immediately before you attach the lens.
•To prevent dust from adhering to surfaces, point the camera and lens downward and do not allow the
lens surface to come into contact with your hands or other objects.
•Always use a blower brush to remove any dust that adheres. Never use your hands or cloth, blow with your mouth, or use other methods to remove dust.
Phenomena specific to CMOS image sensors
The following phenomena are known to occur on cameras equipped with CMOS image sensors. These do not indicate malfunctions.
•
Aliasing
When shooting straight lines, stripes, and similar patterns, vertical aliasing (zigzag distortion) may appear on the monitor.
•
Blooming
When strong light enters, more than the allowable amount of charge of the sensor element in the CMOS image sensor (pixel) and the charge is overflowing, enters into the surrounding pixels, and blooming may occur. However, this does not affect actual operation.
•
Fixed pattern noise
When shooting dark objects in high-temperature conditions, fixed pattern noise may occur throughout the entire video monitor screen.
•
Defective pixels
Defective pixels (white and black pixels) of the CMOS image sensor are minimized at the factory according to shipping standards. However, as this phenomenon can be affected by the ambient temperature, camera settings (e.g., high sensitivity and long exposure), and other factors, be sure to operate within the camera’s specified operating environment.
Notes on exportation
When exporting this product, please follow the export regulations of your country or region.

GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB
Features
The GO-2400M-USB/GO-2400C-USB is an industrial progressive scan camera equipped with a 1/1.2-inch global shutter CMOS image sensor with 2.35 effective megapixels (1936 × 1216). The unit is compact and lightweight in design and is equipped with USB 3.0 interface.
 The GO-2400M-USB produces monochrome output while the GO-2400C-USB produces Bayer output.
Compact and lightweight
The unit’s compact (approx. 29 × 29 × 41.5 mm, excluding lens mount) and lightweight (approx. 46 g) design allows for easy assembly and installation.
Output formats
You can choose from 8-bit, 10-bit, and 12-bit* output for both monochrome and Bayer.
* As the color camera cannot perform white balance when using 12-bit output, perform white balance on the
application.
High frame rate
The GO-2400M-USB and GO-2400C-USB are both capable of frame rates of up to 159 fps (8-bit format) for full 2.35-megapixel output. Even faster frame rates can be achieved when a smaller ROI (region of interest) is specified.
ALC (automatic level control) function
Combine the automatic gain control and automatic exposure control functions to allow handling of changes in various brightnesses.
Variety of pre-process functions
LUT (lookup table)
For programmable control over gamma and contrast.
Gamma correction
Gamma can be set to 0.45, 0.60, or 1.0 (off).
Shading correction (flat field and color shading)
Non-uniformity (i.e., shading) in the amount of light generated by the lens and lighting equipment can be corrected.
Bayer white balance (GO-2400C-USB only)
White balance can be automatically adjusted continuously. It can also be adjusted manually using R, and B gain.

The diagonal of the camera’s CMOS image sensor is 13.4 mm, which is larger than the 11 mm size of standard 2/3-inch lenses. To prevent vignetting and to obtain the optimal resolution, use a lens that will cover the 13.4 mm diagonal. Some lens manufacturers offer lenses with a 13.4 mm format. If not, a 1-inch lens is recommended.

GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB
Caution
The maximum performance of the camera may not be realized depending on the lens.
Attaching a lens with a mount protrusion of 9.1 mm or longer may damage the lens or camera.
Note
The following formula can be used to estimate the focal length. focal length = WD / (1 + W/w)
WD: Working distance (distance between lens and object) W: Width of object w: Width of sensor (11.3 mm on this camera)
2
Direct connection (or MP-43 tripod adapter plate)
When mounting the camera directly to a wall or other device, use screws that match the camera locking screw holes on the camera. (Large: M3, small: M2, depth: 3 mm) Use the supplied screws to attach the tripod adapter plate.
Caution
For heavy lenses, be sure to support the lens itself. Do not use configurations in which its weight is supported by the camera.
