Description
UniLine series cameras are compact, rugged industrial line scanning cameras
with exceptional performance features. The camera withstands ambient temperatures
of up to 45° C, even at maximum data signalling rates. This allows for use in
very hot production environments. A high quality CCD chip with electronic shutter
for the reduction of exposure times at the selected scanning rate is at the heart
of the camera. The camera's electronics automatically correct temperature related
offset-level drift independent of integration time and data signalling rate. Additional
offset correction procedures at the PC are thus unnecessary. As a special feature,
process trigger signals such as line start signals generated by an incremental
encoder and frame start signals from an initiator can be directly connected to
the UniLine-2048. Encoders are provided with the necessary supply power directly
from the camera. This significantly simplifies system wiring, because, as a rule,
all of the components are directly at the production line anyway. The camera only
requires one single-supply 12 V power pack, because all of the required operating
voltages are generated with appropriate DC-DC transformers inside the camera.
Some frame grabbers are equipped with a +12 V auxiliary power supply which is
taken from the PC and made available at the interface plug connector. In this
case, supply power for the camera can be provided via the interface cable. The
4-pin power socket at the back of the camera is used if no auxiliary power is
available from the frame grabber.

In case of stagnation of the production plant the camera still works with 38 Hz
in a self running mode. After renew of the production plant the camera generates
directly valid lines
- The trigger sources for the line and the frame start directly connected to
the camera and powered from the camera
- Selectable integration time in the free running or incremental encoder mode
- Selectable divider for the line scan trigger signal from an incremenal encoder
- Free running camera
- Internal or external masterclock
- programmable integration time
- Ultra sensitivity (40V / x*s)
- Two control bit`s for selectable gain
- All settings and trigger functions can be also controled over the frame grabber
