CV-M536/ 538/ 539
1. General
The model CV-M536 series is a new remote micro-head camera system featuring virtually identical
performance and function of the popular CV-M50 standard machine vision camera.
Precisely installed CCD imager (1/ 2") and miniature size (ø17mm) allows access to very contained
spaces. The remote micro-head weights only 15g (0.031lbs) and can be separated up to 10m (32.8 feet)
by cable.
The new 1/ 2" Hyper HAD imager employed in the CV-M536 series provides superior sensitivity and
higher dynamic range with improved smear level.
High speed shutter and asynchronous random trigger functions allow a superb image quality in
machine vision and image processing applications such as dynamic motion image capturing, on-line
inspection, gauging, printing and graphics.

6. Functions and Operations
6.1. Input/ Output of HD/ VD Signal
6.1.1. Input of External HD/ VD Signal
As factory setting the camera can be synchronized by external HD/ VD signals. The signal level must be
4.0V p-p +/ - 2.0V at the input with the 75 Ohm termination ON. To change to non-terminated input, see
instructions in “7. Mode Setting”.
If no ext. HD is connected, the camera will switch to the internal X-tal controlled HD.
If no ext. VD is connected, the camera will continue with its internal VD.
6.1.2. Output of Internal HD/ VD Signal
The internal HD/ VD output is 4.0V p-p from a 75 Ohm source.
To select this mode, see instructions in “7. Mode Setting”.
6.2. Normal Shutter Mode
When trigger select SW1-4 is OFF, the camera is in normal mode. The SW1-1, SW1-2 and SW1-3 are for
selecting the shutter speed. The range is from OFF to 1/ 10,000 second in 8 steps. The camera is running
continuously with an exposure as the selected shutter time.
The shutter time setting is shown in “7.1.3. Table for Shutter Time”.
6.3. External Trigger Mode
External trigger mode of CV-M536/ 538/ 539 allows 4 different driving modes, as follow.
1
2
3
4
Edge pre-select mode. (Asynchronous reset and exposure start by an ext. trigger)
Pulse width control mode. (Exposure control by the low period of the ext. trigger)
Start/Stop trigger mode. (Exposure start by the ext. trigger and end by the ext. VD signal)
Long time exposure mode. (Exposure control by the interval of the ext. VD signal)
The trigger input is AC coupled, so there is a maximum pulse width for the trigger pulse about 60 msec.
The signal level must be 4.0V p-p +/ - 2.0V on the input with the 75 Ohm termination ON. To change to
non-terminated input, see instructions in “7. Mode Setting”.
The following describes the details of each trigger mode.
6.3.1. Edge Pre-select Mode
The edge pre-select mode operation will only work in non-interlaced and field accumulation mode. The
CV-M50 starts the exposure (= accumulation of photoelectric charge) at the first HD pulse after the
falling edge of the ext. trigger pulse. The exposure ends after the time set by the 3 shutter switches
SW1-1 to SW1-3. The range is 8 steps from OFF (1/ 60 or 1/ 50) to 1/ 10,000 second.
In this mode, the EEN (Exposure ENable) pulse and WEN (Write ENable) pulses are generated and
output from the camera. The EEN pulse indicates the exposure time and can be used to control the
illumination such as strobe light. The EEN pulse is output from pin 2 of the 6-pin multi connector. The
signal level is 4.0 Vp-p from a 75 Ohm source.
The WEN pulse indicates the time period of the effective video signal output, and is useful for the timing
and interfacing of external devices such as frame grabbers. The WEN pulse is output from pin 6 of the 6-
pin multi connector. The signal level is 4.0 Vp-p from a 75 Ohm source.
The video must be read out before a new trigger can be applied. The interval between trigger pulses
must be longer than the time for 1 field + the shutter time. It is the limit for the field rate.

To use this mode
Set:
SW1-4 to ON for ext. trigger shutter
SW1-5 to OFF for field accumulation
SW1-6 to ON for non-interlaced
SW1-1,2 and 3 to shutter speed
Input:
Ext. trigger to pin 5 on 6 pin multi connector.
Ext. HD to pin 6 on 12-pin multi connector. (If used).
75 Ohm termination is done with SW2-1 (HD) and SW2-2 (etc.trigger) on PK8057 board.
Refer to Timing Chart and Cautions below.
Detailed switch and jumper setting is described in “7. Mode Setting”.
For connections see “5. Pin Assignment”.
Cautions in the Edge Pre-select Mode.
1. Edge pre-select mode is effective only in non-interlaced, field accumulation mode.
2. The exposure start may delay up to 1H max., when the falling edge of ext. trigger pulse is not
synchronized with the falling edge of ext. HD signal. To avoid this 1H delay and jitter, the falling edge
of the trigger pulse should be synchronized with the HD pulse as shown below. It can be the ext. HD
input or the Internal HD output.
3. The ext. trigger input is 75 Ohm terminated as factory setting. (R127 short and SW2-2 ON). The
voltage level of the ext. trigger has to be 4.0 Vp-p ± 2.0 V. The duration should be more than 1 H
negative going. >64 µsec. and < 60 msec. The input is AC coupled.
4. If the ext. trigger input and ext. HD input are from a source with TTL level, set SW2-1 and SW2-2 OFF
for non-terminated. SW2-1 for HD signal, SW2-2 for ext. trigger pulse. See “7.2 SW2 on PK8057
Board”.

6.3.2. Pulse Width Control Mode
The pulse width control mode will only work in non-interlaced field accumulation mode.
The exposure is controlled by the low period of the ext. trigger pulse. The exposure starts at the first HD
pulse after the falling edge of the ext. trigger pulse. The exposure ends at the first HD pulse after the
rising edge of the ext. trigger. The Shutter can be controlled to be within the range from >1H (>64 µsec.)
to <60 msec. The AC coupling causes the upper limit.
EEN (Exposure ENable) pulse and WEN (Write ENable) pulses are generated and output from the
camera.
The EEN pulse indicates the exposure time. The EEN pulse is output from pin 2 of the 6-pin multi
connector. The signal level is 4.0 Vp-p from a 75 Ohm source.
The WEN pulse indicates the time period of the effective video signal output and is useful for the timing
and interfacing of external devices such as frame grabbers. The WEN pulse is output from pin 6 of the 6-
pin multi connector. The signal level is 4.0 Vp-p from a 75 Ohm source
The video must be read out before a new trigger can be applied. The interval between trigger pulses
must be longer than the time for 1 field + the shutter time. It is the limit for the field rate.
To use this mode
Set:
SW1-1, 2 and 3 to OFF
SW1-4 to ON for ext. trigger shutter
SW1-5 to OFF for field accumulation
SW1-6 to ON for non-interlaced
JP12 on PK8057 to OPEN
Input:
Ext. trigger to pin 5 on 6-pin multi connector.

6.3.3. Start/ Stop Trigger Mode
The Start / Stop trigger will work in 3 modes:
1. Interlaced with frame accumulation.
2. Interlaced with field accumulation.
3. Non-interlaced with field accumulation.
The exposure time is controlled by the interval between the ext. trigger pulse and the ext. VD signal. The
exposure starts at the first HD pulse after the falling edge of the ext. trigger, and stops at the rising edge
of the VD pulse. The range can be within 1/ 77 to 1/ 10,000 sec.
The Start/ Stop mode is a continuous mode where the VD signal must be given continuously. It is not
possible to input ext. VD randomly.
For the interlaced modes 2 ext. trigger pulses should be applied for each frame. It is one for each field.
In this way it is possible to have different exposure time for the 2 fields within an interlaced frame.
The difference between interlaced frame accumulation or field accumulation can be explained as follow.
Both modes have 2 fields output in an interlaced frame. With frame accumulation the contents in the
ODD and EVEN sync. fields will come from sensing field 1 and 2 on the CCD sensor. With field
accumulation both ODD and EVEN sync. field will contain the signal from sensing field 1 and 2 added
together.
Non-interlaced with field accumulation needs only 1 trigger pulse for each field.
To use this mode
Set:
SW1-1,2 and 3 to ON for 1/ 10,000 sec.
SW1-4 to OFF for normal shutter.
SW1-5 to ON for frame accumulation or OFF for field accumulation.
SW1-6 to OFF for 2:1 interlaced or ON for non-interlaced.
Jumper JP R127 on the PK8054 board OPEN
Jumper JP8, JP9, JP10 on PK8057 to SHORT
Jumper JP7 on PK8057 to OPEN
Input:
Ext. trigger to pin 5 on 6 pin multi connector. (Cannot be 75 Ohm terminated.)
Ext. VD to pin 7 on 12 pin multi connector.
Ext. HD to pin 6 on 12 pin multi connector. (If used).
HD/ VD 75 Ohm termination is done with SW2-1 and SW2-2 on PK8057 board.
Refer to Timing Chart and Cautions on next page.
Detailed switch and jumper setting is described in “7. Mode Setting”.

Cautions in the Start/ Stop Trigger Mode.
1. The input of ext. VD signal must be given continuously to synchronize with int. VD signal. It is not
possible to input ext. VD signal randomly.
2. The exposure start may delay up to 1H max., when the falling edge of ext. trigger pulse is not
synchronized with the falling edge of ext. HD signal. To avoid this 1H jitter and delay, the falling edge
of the ext. trigger pulse should be synchronized within 4.4 µsec. to the HD pulse. It can be the ext. HD
input or the internal HD output.
Shown under cautions in Edge Pre-select Mode page 7.
3. In this mode, the ext. trigger has to be TTL level (2.0 to 5.0 V). It cannot be 75 Ohm terminated. The
duration should be more than 1 H negative going. >64 µsec. and < 1 msec. The input is AC coupled.
4. If the ext. VD input and ext. HD input are from a source with TTL level, set SW2-1 and SW2-2 on
PK8057 board OFF for non-terminated. SW2-1 for ext. HD signal, SW2-2 for ext. VD signal. See “7.2
SW2 on PK8057 Board”.
5. Each scanning mode requires the following number of external trigger pulses:
- 2:1 interlaced: 2 external trigger pulses per frame
- Non-interlaced: 1 external trigger pulse per field
a) Interlaced mode (Frame accumulation mode)
b) 2:1 Interlaced mode (Field accumulation mode)
c) Non-interlace moded (Field accumulation mode)

6.3.4. Long Time Exposure Mode
The Long time exposure will work in 3 modes:
1. Interlaced with field accumulation.
2. Interlaced with frame accumulation.
3. Non-interlaced with field accumulation.
The exposure time is the interval between 2 ext. VD pulses sent to the camera VD input. Each ext. VD
pulse will reset and restart the internal VD in the camera as for ext. HD/ VD input. So the camera is
synchronized to the external HD/ VD supply after each VD input.
An exposure starts after input of an external VD pulse, and ends after the next input of ext. VD, which
again starts a new exposure.
The long time exposure is a continuous process where each external VD will synchronize the camera,
stop an exposure, start a new exposure and read out the previous accumulated signal as interlaced or
non-interlaced fields.
th
The exposure control can be done by feeding every N VD pulse from the external HD/ VD supply to the
camera. N is the wanted exposure time in number of fields. This is typically done in the frame grabber
PC.
The range for long time exposure is from 1 V (a single field) to ∞. However the dark current signal will
increase by longer time, so >2 seconds are not recommended at normal ambient temperature.
To use this mode:
Set:
SW1-1, 2 and 3 to OFF
SW1-4 to OFF for normal shutter.
SW1-5 to ON for frame accumulation or OFF for field accumulation.
SW1-6 to OFF for 2:1 interlaced or ON for non-interlaced.
Jumper JP6 on PK8057 to CLOSE
Input:
Ext. VD pulses with the exposure interval to pin 7 on 12 pin multi connector.
Ext. HD to pin 6 on 12 pin multi connector.
75 Ohm termination is done with SW2-1 and SW2-2 on PK8057 board.
The timing for the external VD interval has to be as follow. (V is the time for a single field)
Interlaced with field accumulation.
Interlaced with frame accumulation.
1 V or more
2 V or integral number of 2V
Non-interlaced with field accumulation. 2 V or more
Note:The external HD/ VD sync. generator, which supply the ext. VD an HD signals should follow the
scanning standard for the camera setting.

Cautions in the Long Time Exposure Mode.
1. Theoretical exposure time is as follows. EIA: 1/ 30 sec. to ∞. CCIR: 1/ 25 sec. to ∞.
2. It is recommended not to use exposure >2 sec. since visible dark-current noise may occur.
3. Ext. HD signal (4.0 Vp-p ± 2.0V at 75 Ohm terminated) has to be input continuously

11. Appendix
11.1. 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.
Even 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.
11.2. Typical CCD Characteristics
The following effects may be observed on the video monitor screen. They do not indicate any fault of the
CCD camera, but do associate with typical CCD characteristics.
V. Smear
Due to an excessive bright object such as electric lighting, sun or strong reflection, vertical smear may
be visible on the video monitor screen. This phenomenon is related to the characteristics of the
Interline Transfer System employed in the CCD.
V. Aliasing
When the CCD camera captures stripes, straight lines or similar sharp patterns, jagged image on the
monitor may appear.
Blemishes
Some pixel defects can occur, but this does not have en effect on the practical operation.
Patterned Noise
When the CCD camera captures a dark object at high temperature or is used for long time integration,
fixed pattern noise (shown as white dots) may appear on the video monitor screen.
