XC-E series
OUTLINE
The XC-ES30/30CE, XC-ES50/50CE, XC-EI30/30CE, and XC-EI50/50CE are industrial black-and-white video camera
modules, each using a 1/3- or 1/2-inch IT CCD . The 1/3- and 1/2-inch C mount commonly used in industrial applications
implements compact size and lightweight. Switching of each mode on the rear panel, which has been installed from
the XC-ST series, is followed to provide improved operability. The XC-EI series uses a CCD which is sensitive on a
near infrared area to capture a clear image even in low-intensity illumination. As with the existing devices, the XCES30/30CE, XC-ES50/50CE, XC-EI30/30CE, and XC-EI50/50CE incorporate significant shock and vibration resistance
to support installation on FA equipment.
MAIN FEATURES
1/3" and 1/2" IT CCD
A CCD sensitive on a near infrared area is used for the XC-EI series.
External trigger shutter function
(XC-ES50/ES30, XC-EI50/EI30: 1/4 to 1/10,000 seconds,
XC-ES50CE/ES30CE, XC-EI50CE/EI30CE: 1/4 to 1/8,000 seconds)
Restart Reset (R.R) function
Inputting HD and VD signals (2 VD or more) continuously from the outside can catch one image at arbitrary time
and control the stored CCD.
This function is used for long exposures and strobe with frame image output.
Synchronization system: Internal/external HD/VD
Inputting an HD/VD signal from the outside automatically establishes external synchronization.
This function is effective for controlling multiple cameras efficiently from the external system.
Setting each mode on rear panel
The setting of each mode can be changed by the DIP switch.
Almost all switches are located on the rear panel. This feature permits easy setting after equipment is installed.
Compact and lightweight
Compared to the existing devices, the size and weight are reduced widely.
Each of the XC-ES30/30CE, XC-ES50/50CE, XC-EI30/30CE, and XC-EI50/50CE can be used in applications
using two-piece cameras.

PHASE CONDITIONS OF EXTERNAL SYNCHRONIZATION
External synchronization for each mode
• For normal video/normal shutter
Continuous HD/VD signal (should conform to EIA and CCIR frequencies in the timing shown in the figure below.)
• For Restart Reset (RR)/external trigger shutter
Continuous HD signal. The phase between VD (reset) and HD signals is as specified in the figure below in any
timing.
Phase conditions
The phase relation between external input HD and VD signals should be set as shown below with respect to the
specified center phase.

ELECTRONIC SHUTTER
External trigger shutter
These modes are used to capture one image (one field) per trigger pulse.
Set DIP switches 6, 7, and 8 on the rear panel to mode 1 or 2. (Refer to the table below.)
When the trigger pulse width is 1/3 sec or more, the output signal is switched to a normal video signal.
There are two modes for timing in which a video signal is obtained.
• Mode 1 (Non-reset mode)
In this mode, a video signal synchronized with a VD signal is output after a trigger pulse is input.
• A video signal is synchronized with the external VD signal when an external HD/VD signal is input.
• A video signal is synchronized with an internal VD signal when no external HD/VD signal is input.
• Mode 2 (Reset mode)
In this mode, an internal video signal is output from a trigger pulse after a certain period of time.
Video sync is always fixed with odd field for XC-ST70 and even field for XC-ST70CE.
For more details of each timing chart, refer to pages 16 to 23.
