Notes on using this product
● Handle carefully Do not drop the equipment or allow it to be subject to strong impact or vibration, as such action may cause
malfunctions. Further, do not damage the connection cable, since this may cause wire breakage.
● Environmental operating conditions Do not use the product in locations where the ambient temperature or humidity exceeds the specifications. Otherwise, image quality may be degraded or internal components may be adversely affected. In particular,
do not use the product in areas exposed to direct sunlight. Moreover, during shooting under high temperatures, vertical stripes or white spots (noise) may be produced, depending on the subject or camera conditions (such as increased gain). However, such phenomena are not malfunctions.
● Check a combination with the lens Depending on the lens and lighting you use, an image is reflected as a ghost in the imaging area. However,
this is not because of a fault of the camera.
In addition, depending on the lens you use, the performance of the camera may not be brought out fully due
to deterioration in resolution and brightness in the peripheral area, aberration and others.
Be sure to check a combination with the camera by using the lens and lightning you actually use. When installing a lens in the camera, make sure carefully that it is not tilted. In addition, use a mounting screw free from defects and dirt. Otherwise, the camera may be unable to be
removed.
Install a next lens; its dimension of protrusion from bottom of the screw is equal to or less than 10 mm. If a
lens does not stand to this condition, it might not be installed to this camera.
10mm or less
C-mount lens
Bottom of the screw
● Do not shoot under intense light Avoid intense light such as spot lights on part of the screen because it may cause blooming or smears. If
intense light falls on the screen, vertical stripes may appear on the screen, but this is not a malfunction.

D4211908D
●Do not expose the camera's image-pickup-plane to sunlight or other intense light directly Its inner CCD (charge-coupled device) might be damaged.
● Occurrence of moiré If you shoot thin stripe patterns, moiré patterns (interference fringes) may appear. This is not a malfunction.
● Occurrence of noise on the screen If an intense magnetic or electromagnetic field is generated near the camera or connection cable, noise may
be generated on the screen. If this occurs, move the camera or the cable.
● Handling of the protective cap If the camera is not in use, attach the lens cap to the camera to protect the image pickup surface.
● If the equipment is not to be used for a long duration Turn off power to the camera for safety.
● Maintenance Turn off power to the equipment and wipe it with a dry cloth. If it becomes severely contaminated, gently wipe the affected areas with a soft cloth dampened with diluted
neutral detergent. Never use alcohol, benzene, thinner, or other chemicals because such chemicals may damage or discolor the paint and indications.
If the image pickup surface becomes dusty, contaminated, or scratched, consult your sales representative.

Notes on combination of C-mount lens:
- Depending on the lens you use, the performance of the camera may not be brought out fully due to the deterioration in resolution and brightness in the peripheral area, occurrence of a ghost, aberration and others. When you check the combination between the lens and camera, be sure to use the lens you actually use.
- In addition, use a mounting screw free from defects and dirt. Otherwise, the camera may be unable to be removed.
- As for the C-mount lens used combining this camera, the projection distance from bottom of the screw should use 10mm or less.

Notes on Dropping Frames:
Depends on your PC or Gigabit Ethernet interface board configurations, images may not be captured properly (e.g.
dropping frames). In this case, change to frame rate setting lower.

● Anti-chattering process for Trigger input
In the characteristic of the open collector circuit, the signal is skewed. As a result, an invalid ingredient occurs. To filter out an invalid ingredient, this camera has the anti-chattering circuit. Therefore, Random Trigger Shutter operates only in the valid ingredient.

- In the period when FRAME_TRIGGER_WAIT (GPIO signal) is inactive, user must not input external trigger signal to this camera.
- When the interval of the input trigger signal is extremely short, or when the trigger signal is noisy, there is a possibility
of causing the malfunction. In this case, please input a proper trigger signal.

Scalable
BG B/W series provide the scalable mode that can read out defined area of the screen.
In the scalable mode, camera reads out only necessary area at the normal speed and reads out other area at high speed. The frame rate can be faster when the vertical height size is small. However, the frame rate cannot be faster only when the horizontal width size is small, due to the operation mechanism of the CCD sensor.
Only single rectangle is selectable. Concave or convex shape is not selectable.
- Window size: {A × m (H)} × {B × n (V)} A, B = minimum unit size m, n = integer The window size is equal or less than maximum image size.

TriggerControl
This section describes trigger control of AcquisitionControl category for the BG series. This camera series provides two kinds of exposure synchronization.
1. Normal Shutter mode : Free run operation (internal synchronization)
2. Random Trigger Shutter mode : Synchronized with external trigger input
In Random Trigger Shutter mode, two kinds of trigger input are available.
1. Trigger signal via the I/O connector (HardwareTrigger)
2. Trigger command via the Gigabit Ethernet interface (SoftwareTrigger)

ExposureControl
BG series is able to adjust exposure time by using electric shutter control. This camera series provides two kinds of exposure time control mode.
- MANUAL mode : The exposure time is determined by “ExposureTime” register setting value.
- AE mode : The exposure time is adjusted automatically by the photometry of the image.
By combining AE mode and AGC (ALC mode), it can adjust a wide range of brightness fluctuation of the
subject. About details of ALC mode, refer to "ALC Control" of "Functions".
When HardwareTrigger operation, you are able to control the exposure time by pulse width of external
trigger input signal.
