1.3 Description
e2v’s next generation of line scan cameras are setting new, high standards for line rate and image quality. Thanks to e2v’s recently developed multi-line CMOS technology, the camera provides an unmatched 100,000 lines/s and
combines high response with an extremely low noise level; this delivers high signal to noise ratio even when short integration times are required or when illumination is limited. The 5μm pixel size is arranged in four active lines, ensuring optimal spatial resolution in both scanning and sensor directions with standard F-mount lenses. Vertical and horizontal binning functions allow the camera to be operated in a 8,192 pixels, 5µm x 5µm pixel pitch, up to 4 active CMOS lines mode or 4,096 pixels, 10µm x 10 µm pixel pitch, 2 active CMOS lines mode depending on the user settings. This versatile feature sets new standard for next generation machine vision systems
1.4 Typical Applications
Raw material surface inspection Parcel and postal sorting High resolution document scanning

2.2 Image Sensor
The Eliixa+ 8k sensor is composed of two pairs of sensitive lines. Each pair of lines use the same Analog to Digital Column converter (ADC Column). An appropriate (embedded) Time delay in the exposure between each line allows combining two successive exposures in order to double the sensitivity of a single line.
This Time Delay Exposure is used only in the 4S multi-line modes (4 Lines) and also in the three binning modes, as described below.
The 8192 Pixels of the whole sensor are divided in 2 blocks of 4096 pixels.

4 STANDARD CONFORMITY
The ELIIXA+ cameras have been tested using the following equipment:
A shielded power supply cable A Camera Link data transfer cable ref. MVC-1-1-5-2M from CEI (Component Express, Inc.)
e2v recommends using the same configuration to ensure the compliance with the following standards.
4.1 CE Conformity
The ELIIXA+ cameras comply with the requirements of the EMC (European) directive
2004/108/EC (EN50081-2, EN 61000-6-2).
4.2 FCC Conformity
The ELIIXA+ cameras further comply with Part 15 of the FCC rules, which states that: Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
This device may not cause harmful interference, and This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
4.3 RoHs Conformity
ELIIXA+ cameras comply with the requirements of the RoHS directive 2011/65/EU.

6 CAMERA SOFTWARE INTERFACE
6.1 Control and Interface
As all the e2v Cameras, the ELIIXA+ CL is delivered with the friendly interface control software COMMCAM.UCL (as “Ultimate Camera Link”) which is based on the GenICam standard
COMMCAM recognizes and detects automatically all the UCL Cameras connected on any transport layers (Camera Link or COM ports) of your system.
Once connected to the Camera you have an easy access to all its features. The visibility of these features can be associated to three types of users: Beginner, Expert or Guru. Then you can make life easy for simple users.
Minimum version of CommCam is 2.1.4 in order to recognize the ELIIXA+ 8k/4k Camera (both versions)
The Versions “BHx” require a CommCam version 2.5.1 and further.

Parameter out of range (the parameter of the last command sent is out of range).
>35
Access Failure (bad communication between two internal devices).
6.2 Serial Protocol and Command Format
The Camera Link interface provides two LVDS signal pairs for communication between the camera and
the frame grabber. This is an asynchronous serial communication based on RS-232 protocol.
The serial line configuration is:
 Full duplex/without handshaking
 9600 bauds (default), 8-bit data, no parity bit, 1 stop bit. The baud rate can be set up to 115200
6.2.1 Syntax
Internal camera configurations are activated by write or readout commands.
The command syntax for write operation is:
w <command_name> <command_parameters><CR>
The command syntax for readout operation is:
r <command_name><CR>
6.2.2 Command Processing
Each command received by the camera is processed:
 The setting is implemented (if valid)
 The camera returns “>”<return code><CR>
The camera return code has to be received before sending a new command.
The Camera Returned Codes are :
6.2.3 GenICam ready
The CameraLink Standard is not yet compliant with GenICam Standard, but as much as possible, each command of the ELIIXA+ will have its correspondence with the Standard Feature Naming Convention of the GenIcam Standard.
This correspondence is given in parenthesis for each feature/command as the following example :
Vendor name (
DeviceVendorName
) : “e2v”

7 Camera Commands
7.1 Device Control
These values allow identifying the Camera. They can be accessed in CommCam software in the “Info” section
All these values are fixed in factory and can’t be changed (shaded) except the Camera User ID which can be fixed
by the Customer :
Vendor name (DeviceVendorName) : “e2v”
Read function : “r vdnm”;
Returned by the camera : “e2v”, string of 32 bytes (including “/0”)
Can not be written
Model Name (DeviceModelName) : Internal name for GenICam :

Read function : “r deid”;
Returned by the camera : String of 128 bytes (including “/0”)
Write function : “w deid <idstr>”
Device User ID (DeviceUserID) : Camera user identifier ID
Read function : “r cust”;
Returned by the camera : String of 128 bytes (including “/0”)
Write function : “w cust <idstr>”
Electronic board ID (ElectronicBoardID) : Get PcB Board ID
Read function : “r boid”;
Returned by the camera : String of 32 bytes (including “/0”)
Can not be written
Device Temperature Selector (DeviceTemperatureSelector) : MainBoard
Can not be written

A standby mode, what for ?
The Standby mode stops all activity on the sensor level. The power dissipation drops down to about 6W. During the standby mode, the grab is stopped
Once the Standby mode turned off, the Camera recovers in less than 1ms to send images again from the sensor.
