Introduction
Interface
The EL-2800M-CXP and EL-2800C-CXP employ CoaXPress as an interface system. In order to connect the camera to a PC, it requires the use of a Frame Graber board and the appropriate coaxial cable(s). The maximum video transfer rate per coaxial cable is 6.25 Gbps (CXP-6). The maximum rate per cable supported by the EL-2800 is 3.125 Gbps (CXP-3) but for RGB output, 6.25 Gbps is supported. In addition to video information, power and control signals can be transferred to the camera over this interface. For detailed specifications, please refer to JIIA-NTF-001-2010 published by Japan Industrial Imaging Association, http://www.jiia.org.
Frame grabber boards used with EL-2800 series
As the EL-2800M-CXP and EL-2800C-CXP employ CoaXPress as an interface system, a CoaXPress-compliant frame grabber board is required. Each camera has a single CoaXPress interface connector.
Cables used with EL-2800 series
For the CoaXPress interface, coaxial cables are used. In the EL-2800M-CXP and EL-2800C-CXP, they use 75Ω 1.0/2.3 DIN receptacles (Amphenol ACX1785-ND or equivalent). The coaxial cable used to connect the camera must have a 75Ω 1.0/2.3 DIN-type plug at the camera side. An ordinary BNC cable cannot be used.

1. General
The EL-2800M-CXP and EL-2800C-CXP are new cameras in JAI’s Elite Series. They provide high picture quality, such as high sensitivity and low noise, suitable for machine vision applications. The EL-2800M-CXP is a monochrome progressive scan CCD camera and the EL-2800C-CXP is the equivalent Bayer mosaic progressive scan CCD camera. Both are equipped with a 2/3 inch CCD sensor offering 2.83 million pixels resolution and a 4:3 aspect ratio. They provide 54.7 frames per second for continuous scanning with 1920 x 1440 full pixel resolution for both monochrome and raw Bayer output.
8-bit, 10-bit, or 12-bit output can be selected for both monochrome and Bayer outputs. The EL-2800C-CXP is also capable of performing in-camera color interpolation to produce 24-bit (8-bit per color) RGB output at 54.7 in Quad Tap Sensor Geometry. The new cameras feature a CoaXPress interface which uses coax cable with the capability of supplying power through the cable. The EL-2800M-CXP and EL-2800C-CXP use a single coaxial cable interface. A full pixel readout, partial scan readout, or binning mode (monochrome only) can be selected depending on the application.
EL-2800M-CXP and EL-2800C-CXP have various comprehensive functions needed for automated optical inspection applications, such as solid state device inspection or material surface inspection. They incorporate video processing functions such as a look-up table, shading compensation, and blemish compensation in addition to fundamental functions such as trigger, exposure setting and video level control.
As a common Elite Series feature, a new connector for lens control is employed. EL-2800M-CXP and EL-2800C-CXP support P-iris and motor-driven lenses as standard lens control capabilities. Factory options are available to configure this connector to support DC iris systems as well as provide a video iris output signal, or to provide additional TTL IN and OUT lines.

5. Input and output
5.1 CoaXPress interface standard
The EL-2800M-CXP and EL-2800C-CXP use CoaXPress as their interface. CoaXPress is a PLUG-AND-PLAY interface and connects the camera and the frame grabber board by coaxial cable(s). Its maximum transfer rate is 6.25 Gbps per one coaxial cable. Additionally, CoaXPress interface supports power supplied through the coaxial cable as well as communication signals. In the CoaXPress interface, multiple coaxial cables can be used in order to achieve a faster transfer rate or a reduced transfer rate can be used to extend the cable length. In the EL-2800M-CXP and EL-2800C-CXP, a single coaxial cable system is used.
Fig.3 CoaXPress interface
The distance between camera and frame grabber board depends on the bit rate of the video and the cable used. Among the unique features of CoaXPress is its ability to supply DC power and provide trigger timing accuracy. The maximum power supply per one cable is 13W with DC+24V voltage. The accuracy of the trigger is ±2 ns at 3.125 Gbps. The CoaXPress compliance labeling is assigned to the following five cable types and the maximum bit rate and transmission length is indicated in the table below.

5.5 Pulse Generator
The EL-2800-CXP has a frequency divider using the pixel clock as the basic clock and four pulse generators. In each Pulse Generator, various Clear settings are connected to GPIO. The following shows Pulse Generator default settings.
Table - 10 Pulse Generator default settings
5.5.1 Clock Pre-scaler
Clock pre-scaler (Divide Value) can set the dividing value of the frequency divider (12-bit
length) and the pixel clock is used for this. Four built-in pulse generators work by the same clock. In the EL-2800M/C-PMCL, the pixel clock is 108 MHz.
5.5.2 Pulse Generator Selector
This is where you select one of the 4 pulse generators in order to set or modify its parameters.

Fig.8 Pulse Generator Pulse construction
5.5.3 Pulse Generator Length
Set the counter up value (number of clocks, refer to Table 12) for the selected pulse generator. If Repeat Count value is 0, and if Pulse Generator Clear signal is not input, the pulse
generator generates the pulse repeatedly until reaching this counter up value.
5.5.4 Pulse Generator Start Point
Set the active output start count value for the selected pulse generator. However, please note that a maximum 1 clock jitter for the clock which is divided in the clock pre-scaler can occur.
5.5.5 Pulse Generator End Point
Set the active output ending count value for the selected pulse generator.
5.5.6 Pulse Generator Repeat Count
Set the repeating number of the pulse for the selected pulse generator. After Trigger Clear signal is input, the pulse generator starts the count set in Repeat Count. Accordingly, an active pulse which has a start point and end point can be output repeatedly.
However, if Repeat Count is set to0, it works as Free Running counter.
5.5.7 Pulse Generator Clear Activation
Set the clear conditions of clear count pulse for the selected pulse generator.
5.5.8 Pulse Generator Clear Sync Mode
Set the count clear method for the selected pulse generator.
In Async Mode, if the clear signal is input during the length setting value, the counter will stop counting according to the clear signal input. In Sync Mode, if the clear signal is input during the length setting value, the counter will continue to count until the end of the length setting value and then clear the count.
Both modes clear the repeat count when the counter is cleared.

7. Operating modes
The following controls are related to capturing the image.
7.1. Acquisition control (change the frame rate)
7.1.1 Acqusition mode
In the EL-2800M-CXP and EL-2800C-CXP, the following three acquisition modes are available.
Single frame : One frame can be output by AcqusitionStart command Multi frames : The number of frames which is specified in Acquistion Frame Count, are output by AcquisitionStart command Continuous : Images are continuously output by AcquisitionStart command until AcqusitionStop command is input.
7.1.1.1 Single Frame
In single frame mode, executing the AcquisitionStart command causes one frame to be captured. After one frame is captured, this operation is automatically stopped. In order to restart the capture, it is necessary to input the AcquisitionStart command again. BlockID is not reset until AcquisitionStop is input and is incremented when the AcquisitionStart command is called. In the case of PIV operation, single frame mode is not available.
Normal single frame operation
1) AcquisitionStart command is input
2) AcquisitionActive becomes “TRUE” (accepts capture)
3) 1 frame is output
4) AcquisitionActive becomes “FALSE” (stop capturing)
Forcing acquisition to stop
While AcquisitionActive is “TRUE”, if AcquisitionStop or AcquisitionAbort is initiated, AcquisitionActive becomes “FALSE” (stop capturing).
However, if AcqusitionStop command is initiated during image output period, AcqusitionActive becomes FALSE (stop capturing) after image output is completed.

7.1.1.2 MultiFrame
In this mode, the AcquisitionStart command captures the number of frames which are specified by AcquisitionFrameCount.
Normal multi-frame operation
1) AcquisitionStart command is input
2) AcquisitionTriggerWait becomes effective
3) AcquisitionActive becomes TRUE(accepts capture)
4) Output N frames as specified by AcquisitionFrameCount
5) AcquisitionActive becomes “FALSE”. Then the output stops. (See the following diagram)
Forcing acquisition to stop
While AcquisitionActive is “TRUE”, if AcquisitionStop or AcquisitionAbort is initiated, AcquisitionActive becomes “FALSE” (stop capturing). Once the operation is set to “FALSE”, the internal FrameCount is reset.
However, if AcqusitionStop command is initiated during image output period, AcqusitionActive becomes FALSE (stop capturing) after image output is completed. Once, AcqusitionActive becomes FALSE, the internal count is reset.
Acqusition Frame Count (16-bit): Can be set in the range of 1 to 65535
In PIV mode, Acquisition Frame Count (16-bit) can be set in the range of 2 to 65535. The setting for PIV mode is 2 steps.

7.1.1.3 Continuous mode
In this mode, when the AcquisitionStart command is set, the image is continuously output at the current frame rate. This is the default setting for the EL-2800M-CXP and EL-2800C-CXP.
1) AcquisitionStart command is input
2) AcquisitionTriggerWait becomes effective
3) AcquisitionActive becomes TRUE”
4) Images begin outputting continuously
5) AcquisitionStop command is sent
6) AcquisitionActive becomes FALSE”. At this moment, the output stops.
However, if AcqusitionStop command is initiated during image output period, AcqusitionActive becomes FALSE (stop capturing) after image output is completed.

7.1.3 Acquisition frame rate
With Trigger OFF, which is self-running operation, it is possible to set a longer acquisition period than the time required to read out all pixels in the area set by the ROI command. The setting is done in the acquisition control. In this case, the setting period is the number of lines in 1 frame.
The setting range is:
Shortest
to
Longest
Time required to read out all
pixels in the area set by AOI
command
to
8 seconds
Note:
1. If the trigger is set to ON, this function is not available.
2. The value for setting is microseconds.
3. If the setting value is less than the minimum period, this setting is ignored and camera operates at the minimum period.
Self-running (Trigger OFF) works under the following conditions. Exposure Mode : OFF Exposure Mode : Timed and Frame Start OFF Exposure Mode : Trigger Width and Frame Start OFF.
7.1.4 Calculation of frame rate
In the following formula, the result of underline should be rounded up.
7.1.4.1 V Binning Off
<Sensor Tap Geometry 1X2-2YE>
1X-2YE(fps) = 1/〔[ Height/2 + {((720-(Height/2)-1)/4} + 25 x 24.574us
<Sensor Tap Geometry 2XE-1Y>
1X-1Y(fps) = 1/【〔 Height + {(OffsetY-1)/4} + [{1440-(OffestY + Height)}/9] + 46
x 24.574us
<Sensor Tap Geometry 1X-1Y>
1X-1Y(fps) = 1/【〔 Height + {(OffsetY-1)/7} + [{1440-(OffestY + Height)}/15] + 46
x 42.519us
7.1.4.2 V Binning On

7.7. RCT mode
Until the trigger is input, the camera operates continuously and the video signal for the auto-iris lens is output. At this moment, the video signal, FVAL and LVAL are output but DVAL is not output. When the trigger is input, the fast dump is activated to read out the electronic charge very quickly, after which the accumulation and the readout are performed. When the accumulated signal against the trigger is read out, FVAL, LVAL and DVAL are output too.
Primary settings to use this mode

7.8. PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry)
The Particle Image Velocimetry mode can be used in applications where 2 images need to be taken with a very short time interval. It can only be used with strobe flash as illumination. The first accumulation time is 10 sec to 2 sec. Then, the second exposure will be taken. The accumulation is LVAL asynchronous. The first strobe is activated during the first exposure duration and the second strobe is pulsed while the first frame is being read out. In this way, two strobe flashes generate two video outputs.

7.9.2 Sequence ROI setting parameters
Setting parameters for Sequence ROI is as follows.
(1) Sequence ROI Index Selector
In Sequence ROI Index Selector, Index 0 to 9 can be selected. Sequence ROI – Width, Height, Offset X, Offset Y, Gain Selector - Gain/Red/Blue, Exposure Time, Black Level, Binning Horizontal, Binning Vertical, LUT Enable, Frame Count, Next Index for the selected index are displayed.
(2) Sequence ROI Width
Width is fixed at 1920. No setting is necessary for this parameter.
(3) Sequence ROI Height
Set the height of sequence ROI. The setting range is 8 to 1440 lines. Rules for setting area and step number are the same as the normal ROI mode set by [Video Send Mode] = “Normal”.
(4) Sequence ROI Offset X
This parameter is fixed at 0.
(5) Sequence ROI Offset Y
Set Offset Y of sequence ROI. Sequence ROI Binning Vertical = 1 (Off):
Setting range is 0 to (1432 - [Sequence ROI Height])
Sequence ROI Binning Vertical = 2 (On):
Setting range is 0 to (712 - [Sequence ROI Height]) The limitations of step number and other factors are the same as the normal ROI mode set by [Video Send Mode] = “Normal”. In 1X2-2YE and 1X-2YE, as only Height is set at the center of upper and lower taps, OFFSET Y setting is not enabled.
(6) Sequence ROI Gain Selector
In Sequence ROI Gain Selector, the gain settings for each index are available.
EL-2800C-PMCL: Gain(ALL), Red and Blue can be set.
EL-2800M-PMCL: Only Gain is displayed and can be set.

8.3.2 LUT Index
The number of LUT data elements is 256. The lowest level is Index 0 and the highest level is Index
255.
8.3.3 LUT value
There are 256 LUT data elements to which a value can be assigned. The minimum LUT value is 0 and
the maximum LUT value is 255. The data between LUT data elements is calculated from adjacent data elements. In the color camera, LUT characteristics for R, G and B are the same.

8.5. Shading Correction
This function compensates for shading (non-uniformity) caused by the lens or the light source used.
This compensation can be performed even if shading issues are not symmetrical in horizontal and/or
vertical directions.
If there is no data, use adjacent data on both sides
Average data is used for compensation
EL-2800M-CXP / EL-2800C-CXP
- 58 -
There are two methods of correction.
Flat shading correction:
The method to compensate the shading is to measure the highest luminance level in the image and use that data as the reference. Luminance levels of other areas are then adjusted so that the level of the entire area is equal. The block grid for compensation is 15 (H) x 12(V) blocks with 128 pixels x 128 pixels for each block .The complementary process is applied to produce the compensation data with less error.
Fig. 47 Flat shading correction concept drawing
Color shading correction (For EL-2800C only):
In this case, R channel and B channel are adjusted to match with G channel characteristics. The block grid for compensation is 15(H) x 12(V) blocks and the complementary process is applied to produce the compensation data with less error.
Before adjustment After adjustment
Fig.48 Color shading correction concept drawing
Note: Under the following conditions, the shading correction circuit may not work properly.
If there is some area in the image with a video level less than 70% If part of the image or the entire image is saturated If the highest video level in the image is less than 300LSB (at 10-bit output)

8.6. Blemish compensation
The EL-2800M-CXP and EL-2800C-CXP have a blemish compensation circuit. This function
compensates blemishes on the CCD sensor (typically pixels with extremely high response or
extremely low response). This applies to both monochrome and color versions. Pixels that fulfill the
blemish criteria can be compensated by adjacent pixels in both columns and, in the case of the
EL-2800C-CXP, the defective pixels can be compensated by the same Bayer color pixels in both
adjacent columns. The number of pixels that can be compensated is up to 300 pixels.
Fig. 49 Blemish compensation
Note: If defective pixels are found consecutively in the horizontal direction, the blemish compensation circuit does not work.
8.7. Bayer color interpolation (Only for EL-2800C)
This function is available only for EL-2800C-CXP. The EL-2800C-CXP uses a CCD with an RGB Bayer
pattern. If in-camera Bayer color interpolation is not used, the following RAW data can be output.

The RAW data contains only luminance information for each color and outputs as a monochrome

pixel and output RGB color data as the result. Color interpolation compensates for the lack of color
information by using information from adjacent pixels. The following is the concept drawing for the
color interpolation process.

8.8.1 About P-Iris
New Elite Series EL-2800M-PMCL and EL-2800C-PMCL come equipped with P-Iris control as part of the standard lens control function. The P-Iris system is a newly developed lens control method designed to control the iris more precisely. Especially for video cameras in surveillance applications utilizing megapixel CCD or CMOS imagers, it becomes a very important factor to control an iris in order to achieve the maximum camera performance. In surveillance applications, depending on shooting conditions, resolution and depth of field are important factors. The iris is deeply related with these factors. If the iris diaphragm is smaller, but not too small, resolution gets better and the depth of field is also deeper. The P-Iris system controls the iris diaphragm precisely and maintains the best image with the highest resolution and depth of field. P-Iris can also combine with gain and electronic shutter to keep the appropriate iris position under changing lighting conditions (ALC function).
8.8.2 Setting for P-iris lens being used
P-iris lenses use an absolute setting value control system and therefore, if the following parameters are input, precise iris position control is possible.

The iris control step depends on the lens. The setting value uses the value stored in the camera. Refer to the table above for the control step number.
8.8.2.3 Position
The iris position can be set between 0 to Step Max. 0 means to open the iris and Step Max means to close the iris. The camera initializes P-iris control and acquires iris position under the following conditions:
1) When the camera is powered
2) When the lens is selected in P-Iris lens select
3) If the lens is changed in P-iris lens select
8.8.2.4 Current F value
The current F value is indicated by using iris position information. This can be indicated during auto iris operation. The relation between iris position and F value depends on the lens used.
8.8.2.5 P-Iris Auto min. / P-Iris Auto max.
This function can set the control range when the iris is operated automatically. Auto max. sets the limit when the iris goes open and Auto min. sets the limit when the iris goes closed. Auto max. can be set to fully open but Auto min. is stopped at F5.6 as lens performance typically degrades if the iris is closed beyond this point.
8.8.2.6 Auto Iris Lens Control Signal Output
If the auto iris lens is used, this parameter should be ON. This is common for all types of auto iris lens.
8.8.3 Motorized lenses
The EL-2800-CXP can use the 3-axis motorized lens control for zoom, focus and iris. The following functions are available via the motorized lens commands.
8.8.3.1 Iris
Open: While this command is supplied, the iris will continue to open. Close: While this command is supplied, the iris will continue to close. Stop: When this command is supplied, the iris operation stops.

camera. Far: While this command is supplied, the focus will continue to move towards infinity. Stop: When this command is supplied, the focus operation stops.
8.8.4 Exclusive video output signal for iris control
This signal can be used for automatic lens iris control in Continuous and RCT modes. This signal is available if AUX Type 2 connector is used for AUX (Factory option). The iris video signal is composed to average the video level in the center area of each frame and can be output as a composite signal with H-sync.
The following drawing shows the waveform of the iris control video signal. This signal is output with the same video level within the same frame and the average is recalculated with each new frame.
Fig. 52 Iris video output signal
The following parameters of this auto iris control signal output can be changed.
Auto Iris Control Signal Output: ON: The auto iris control can be connected with AGC and ASC as ALC function OFF: The auto iris control is not connected with AGC and ASC.
Iris State Control:
Video: Use the iris control in auto mode. Close: Force the iris to close. Open: Force the iris to open.

8.8 ALC
In the EL-2800M-CXP and EL-2800C-CXP, auto gain, auto shutter and auto iris functions can be combined to provide a wide ranging automatic exposure control from dark to bright or vice versa. The functions are applied in the sequence shown below and if one function is disabled, the linkage between the other two is maintained.
In order to make the ALC function effective, set the Auto Iris Lens Control Signal Output to ON. The auto iris function works together with AGC and Exposure Auto.
If the lighting condition is changed from bright to dark AIC ASC AGC If the lighting condition is changed from dark to bright AGC ASC AIC
Fig.53 ALC function concept
ALC Reference will determine the target video level for AGC, Auto Shutter and/or Auto iris. For instance, if ALC Reference is set to 100% video level, AGC, Auto Shutter and/or Auto iris will function to maintain 100% video level.
Please note that ALC function is available only in continuous mode, as well as RCT mode.

Appendix
1. Precautions
Personnel not trained in dealing with similar electronic devices should not service this camera. The camera contains components sensitive to electrostatic discharge. The handling of these devices should follow the requirements of electrostatic sensitive components. Do not attempt to disassemble this camera. Do not expose this camera to rain or moisture. Do not face this camera towards the sun, extreme bright light or light reflecting objects. When this camera is not in use, put the supplied lens cap on the lens mount. Handle this camera with the maximum care. Operate this camera only from the type of power source indicated on the camera. Power off the camera during any modification such as changes of jumper and switch setting.
2. Typical Sensor Characteristics
The following effects may be observed on the video monitor screen. They do not indicate any fault of the camera, but are associated with typical sensor characteristics.
V. Aliasing
When the CCD camera captures stripes, straight lines or similar sharp patterns, jagged edges may appear on the monitor.
Blemishes
All cameras are shipped without visible image sensor blemishes. Over time some pixel defects can occur. This does not have a practical effect on the operation of the camera. These will show up as white spots (blemishes). Exposure to cosmic rays can cause blemishes to appear on the image sensor. Please take care to avoid exposure to cosmic rays during transportation and storage. It is recommended using sea shipment instead of air flight in order to limit the influence of cosmic rays on the camera. Pixel defects/blemishes also may emerge due to prolonged operation at elevated ambient temperature, due to high gain setting, or during long time exposure. It is therefore recommended to operate the camera within its specifications.
Patterned Noise
When the sensor captures a dark object at high temperature or is used for long time integration, fixed pattern noise may appear on the video monitor screen.
3. Caution when mounting a lens on the camera
When mounting a lens on the camera dust particles in the air may settle on the surface of the lens or the image sensor of the camera. It is therefore important to keep the protective caps on the lens and on the camera until the lens is mounted. Point the lens mount of the camera downward to prevent dust particles from landing on the optical surfaces of the camera. This work should be done in a dust free environment. Do not touch any of the optical surfaces of the camera or the lens.
4. Caution when mounting the camera
When you mount the camera on your system, please make sure to use screws of the recommended
length described in the following drawing. Longer screws may cause serious damage to the PCB inside the camera.
