Features - Sony XC-7500 Operating Instructions Manual

Features

The XC-7500 is a black-and-white video camera module
that uses a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) solid-state image
sensor compatible with the VGA (Video Graphic Array)
format.
The CCD uses an "all pixels independent read-out" method,
which enables the CCD to output all pixel signals in 1/60 sec.
Wide range of operating modes
You can easily select the required operating mode. The
gain, for example, can be set to AGC (A), to fixed gain (F),
or to manual gain control (M) with a switch on the rear. An
internal switch switches γ (gamma) compensation on or off.
External synchronization
The camera module can be synchronized with three types of
signals (explained below). The capture frequency range is
±1% of the horizontal scan frequency.
HD (horizontal drive)/VD (vertical drive) signals:
The camera module analyzes the HD and VD signals
input from external synchronization and automatically
determines whether to operate in interlace or non-
interlace mode.

VS (Video/Sync) signals:
The video camera module can be synchronized with an
external video or composite sync signal. (The unit
switches automatically between HD/VD and VS
synchronization.)
Internal sync signal output
FLD (field index) signals are output from the 6-pin
connector in accordance with the internal switch settings.
An internal switch change also allows the HD/VD signals
to be output from the 12-pin connector.
Wide range of electronic shutter modes
The electronic shutter built into this unit is indispensable in
attaining the level of image resolution required for factory
automation, etc., and comes with a variety of shutter modes.
• Electronic shutter
You can select the shutter speed from a wide range of
settings (1/125 to 1/10000 sec.) or set it to flickerless (FL)
mode.
• E-DONPISHA 1) shutter
The E-DONPISHA is an external trigger shutter that can be
useful when shooting moving objects. This function enables
a camera in a fixed location to capture flickerless images of
fast-moving objects.
