XC-7500/XC-8500CE is a frame shutter camera that mounts a newly developed CCD. Square grid cells most suitable for a machine vision are used for this CCD that enables all pixels to be read. The resolution is equal in the vertical and horizontal directions. Therefore, it is not required to correct the dimension on the image processing side. The XC-7500 conforms to an EIA system of 659 (H) × 494 (V), and the XC-8500CE conforms to a higher-resolution CCIR system of 782 (H) × 582 (V). The XC-7500 and XC-8500CE enable a trigger frame shutter (E-DONPISHA) control function, signal format conversion function, and high-rate scanning function when they are connected with an optional memory adaptor (CMA-87). Moreover, the still pictures of various high-speed movable objects can be read at a high resolution (in the horizontal and vertical directions).
This manual describes the XC-7500 and XC-8500CE frame‑shutter cameras that use a 1/2‑inch IT CCD. It outlines the camera’s resolution, trigger functions, high‑rate scanning, and optional CMA‑87 memory adaptor. The document also lists the physical dimensions, power requirements, and environmental limits.
Detailed sections cover connections (C‑mount lens, video and trigger cables), shutter speed modes (low, normal, high, external control), video output formats (VGA, SVGA, EIA, CCIR), and specifications such as picture elements, cell size, and synchronization options.
