High-resolution images at twice the speed
The new M4 and M7 megapixel cameras from JAI provide high-resolution images at double the speed of previous models.
The A-Series eliminates operator setup errors by means of a new RS232C command protocol that allows camera setup from your PC, a dumb terminal or hyper terminal software to be executed precisely the same way every time, an advantage in clean rooms and other embedded applications.
With the elimination of DIP switches, the camera setup is easier, faster and error-free.
At the same time, reliability has been improved to 100,000 hours calculated MTBF.
Other design features include delayed readout for multicamera applications and pulse width exposure for on the fly exposure control. Request a free brochure from Firstsight Vision ...
