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.

GO-2401M-PGE / GO-2401C-PGE

Usage Precautions

Secure manually. Do not secure too tightly.

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.

Gain Control

[Analog All] can be used for gain control for both the monochrome and color camera. [Analog All] (master gain) uses the sensor's internal gain function and consists of analog gain + digital gain. Analog gain is used for lower gain, and analog gain + digital gain is used when the gain becomes high. R and B can be configured individually as digital gain on the GO-2401C-PGE.

 For details on how to configure the settings, see “Adjusting the Gain” (page 21).

Gamma Function

The gamma function corrects the output signals from the camera beforehand (reverse correction), taking into consideration the light-emitting properties of the monitor display. As the light-emitting properties of the monitor are not linear, the entire image may be darker or the gradation in the dark areas may be less noticeable when camera outputs are displayed without processing. The gamma function can be used to correct the camera signals with an opposite-direction curve and produce a display that is close to linear.

Shading Correction

The shading correction is a function that corrects non-uniformity (i.e., shading) in the amount of light generated by the lens and lighting equipment. Using this function allows correction even if top, bottom, left, and right shading is not symmetrical in relation to the center of the screen (H, V).

The size of the correction block is 16 (H) × 10 (V) blocks and calculation errors in the correction data are minimized due to the small interpolation block. Each block is 128 × 128 pixels. The total size of the blocks is 2048 (H) × 1280 (V), but the actual number of effective pixels for the camera is 1936 (H) × 1216 (V). The ineffective peripheral areas will be deleted internally on the camera automatically.

The following shading correction modes are available on the camera. Be aware that the shading function may not operate properly when ROI settings are configured.

■ Flat Shading

Correction is performed using the area of the screen with the highest brightness level as the reference, and adjusting the brightness levels of the other areas to match this level.

■ Color Shading (GO-2401C-PGE only)

R-channel and B-channel properties are adjusted to using the G-channel shading properties as a reference.

Pre-correction Post-correction

Caution

Proper correction is not possible under the following conditions.

•If an area with a brightness level that is more than 30% less than the reference level exists within the screen

•If the brightness level is saturated in parts or all of the screen

•If the area in the screen with the highest brightness level is 300 LSB or less (during 10-bit video

Binning Function

The binning function allows you to combine the signal values of clusters of adjacent pixels on the sensor to create improved virtual pixels. Using the function results in images with lower pixel resolution and higher sensitivity. Common methods of binning include “horizontal binning” where two horizontally adjacent pixels are combined, and “vertical binning” where two vertically adjacent pixels are combined. By combining the horizontal and vertical methods to create a group of four pixels (2×2 binning), you can create images with x4 sensitivity.

ROI (Regional Scanning Function)

The ROI (region of interest) function allows you to output images by specifying the areas to scan.

ROI Settings

Specify the area to scan by specifying width, height, and horizontal/vertical offset values under [Image Format Control].

 For details on how to configure the settings, see “Configuring the Output Format” (page 16).

Specifying a lower height will decrease the number of lines scanned, but it will not increase the frame rate. The minimum area is as follows.

■ Sequence T rigger function

The Sequence Trigger function lets you define up to 128 preset combinations of exposure time, gain, ROI, and other settings which can be stepped through each time a trigger is received. This is particularly useful for quickly capturing multiple exposures of objects under inspection to adjust for areas or components with significantly different levels of reflectance. The order of execution and the repetition of particular presets are based on user-defined parameters stored in the sequence, as well as the sequence mode selected in the [Video Send Mode Selector].

Two operation modes (Trigger Sequence and Command Sequence) are available for the Sequence Trigger function.

Trigger Sequence mode

With this mode, the Sequence Trigger “pattern” is predetermined by the user. The user defines up to 128 different “indexes.” Each index represents a combination of the following parameters:

•ROI (width, height, offset X, and offset Y)

•Exposure Time

•Gain Level (R/B Gain can also be configured on the color model)

•Black Level

•Binning Mode (monochrome only)

•LUT Enable (whether or not to enable the use of LUT for this index)

•Frame Count (the number of times to repeat this index before moving to the next)

•Next Index to execute in the predetermined pattern

In addition to these individual index parameters, two other parameters are applied to the entire sequence:

[Sequence LUT Mode] defines whether Gamma or LUT is to be applied to the sequence. If Gamma is selected, the Gamma setting defined in the camera’s Analog Control section will be applied to all exposures in the sequence. If LUT is selected, the LUT characteristics defined in Analog Control will be applied to any index where [Sequence LUT enable] has been set to ON.

[Reset Sequence Index] causes the index selector to be reset to Index 1. Thus, the sequence pattern will start over at the next trigger.

In Trigger Sequence mode, patterns always begin with Index1. Subsequent triggers follow the userdefined values in [Sequence Index Frame Count] and [Sequence ROI Next Index]. Assigning a Next Index value of “1” to an index creates a loop back to the start of the sequence pattern. Setting a Next Index value to “OFF” causes the value of [Sequence Repetition] to be applied as described below.

— 38 —

GO-2401M-PGE / GO-2401C-PGE

User-defined Indexes (up to 128)

[Sequence Repetition]

This parameter applies to Trigger Sequence patterns which include an index whose [Sequence ROI Next Index] is set to OFF. When the index whose [Sequence ROI Next Index] is set to OFF is finished executing, the value of Sequence Repetition (range = 1-255) is decremented internally. If the result of the decrement is not zero, the Trigger Sequence pattern starts over from Index1. If the result of the decrement is zero, the status changes to Acquisition Stop and external triggers are not accepted.

Command Sequence mode

This mode allows the user to vary the “pattern” of the sequence in response to external factors. Changes in the sequence can be initiated manually or in a programmatic fashion as the result of data from sensors/controllers or from the analysis of previous images.

In this mode, the user can define up to 128 different “indexes” each incorporating a combination of:

•ROI (width, height, offset X, and offset Y)

•Exposure Time

•Gain Level (R/B Gain can also be configured on the color model)

•Black Level

•Binning Mode (monochrome only)

•LUT Enable (whether or not to enable the use of LUT for this index)

The user must also enter a value from 1 to 128 in [Command Sequence Index]. This indicates which index to execute each time a trigger is received. The same index will continue to be executed for all subsequent triggers as long as the value of [Command Sequence Index] remains unchanged.

GO-2401M-PGE / GO-2401C-PGE

Changing the value of [Command Sequence Index] to one of the other predefined indexes causes that index to be executed in response to subsequent triggers. This mode of operation enables users to develop applications that continually send new values to [Command Sequence Index] in response to external factors such as changing light conditions, different types or sizes of objects being inspected, or other factors. This allows applications to change ROI, exposure, gain, etc., without being restricted to a predefined pattern.

As with Trigger Sequence, [Sequence LUT Mode] defines whether Gamma or LUT is to be applied to the sequence. If Gamma is selected, the Gamma setting defined in the camera’s Analog Control section will be applied to all exposures in the sequence. If LUT is selected, the LUT characteristics defined in Analog Control will be applied to any index where [Sequence LUT enable] has been set to ON.

[Sequence Index Frame Count], [Sequence ROI Next Index], and [Reset Sequence Index] are not used in Command Sequence mode and entered values are ignored.

Delayed Readout [Acquisition Transfer Start]

Delayed readout enables images captured by a Frame Start trigger command to be stored inside the camera and read out on demand at a later time using Acquisition Transfer Start trigger. This can be especially useful when multiple cameras need to be triggered at the same time, but simultaneous readout of all images would overwhelm the available network bandwidth. The delayed readout buffer can hold up to 7 frames in 8-bit mode or 3 frames in 10-bit or 12-bit modes.

 For details, see “Trigger Control” (page 28).

ALC (Automatic Level Control) Function

The ALC (automatic level control) function combines the automatic gain control (AGC/Auto Gain Control) and automatic exposure control (ASC/Auto Shutter Control) functions, and is capable of handling various changes in brightness. The function operates as follows in response to changes in brightness.

Counter and Timer Control Function (counter support only)

The counter function counts up change points in the camera’s internal signals using the camera’s internal counter, and reads that information from the host side. This function is useful for verifying error conditions via the count value using internal camera operations. Counting is performed at frame trigger, frame start, exposure start, and exposure transfer end, and by comparing these values, you can determine the internal camera state at which missed triggers will occur.

Updates

You can obtain update information and the latest update information from the following URL.

http://www.jai.com/EN/Partner/CameraInformation/Pages/Revision_Notes.aspx

 Registration and login are required for viewing.

Check the version of the unit, and update if necessary. You can check the version of the unit under [Device Control] in the [Feature Properties] tab after starting Control Tool.

Troubleshooting

Check the following before requesting help. If the problem persists, contact your local JAI distributor.

■ Power supply and connections

Problem Cause and solution

The power / trigger LED remains lit amber and does not turn green, even after power is supplied to the camera.

Camera initialization may not be complete due to lack of a network connection. Check the LAN cable conection.

■ Image display

Problem Cause and solution

Gradation in dark areas is not noticeable. Use the gamma function to correct the display.

As the light-emitting properties of the monitor are not linear, the entire image may be darker or the gradation in the dark areas may be less noticeable when camera outputs are displayed without processing. Using the gamma function performs correction to produce a display that is close to linear. For details, see “Gamma Function” (page 33).

■ Settings and operations

Problem Cause and solution

Settings cannot be saved to user memory. You cannot save to user memory while images are being

acquired by the camera. Stop image acquisition before performing the save operation.

I want to restore the factory default settings. Load [Default] under [User Set Selector] in the [Feature

Properties] tab to restore the factory default settings.
