COMPONENT POSITIONS

7.1 POSITIONING OF CAMERA HEAD

Place camera head into output phosphor well of image intensifier (see figure below).
Line up holes at 120' and fasten with screws to intensifier. If necessary it is
possible rotate camera head 90° by 90° with screws at the bottom of the cover
head.

NOTE: For best performance it's better to insulate the camera head from the
ground system. For this reason the camera head has a special superficial
treatment to insulate the head when it is fixed with screws to the system. Be sure
to use plastic insxnation with screw to fix head at the system.

7.2 POSITIONING OF CCU

Line up holes at the bottom of the cover CCU and fasten with screws to the system.

10 FUNCTION AND MEMORY CONTROL
10.1 Memory function of CCD camera
The pins used for memory function are the following 10;
LIH, F R E E Z E A , FREEZE_B, MWR, ADD0, A D D 1 , ADD2, ADD3, ADD4, A D D 5 .
There are 5 memory modes listed below.

• Direct access mode. Allows the recording or display of the first 32 positions of
memory.
• Manual selection mode. Allows the user to move indicator to desired position
to guarantee recording/playback at a specific position.
• Multiple Cine-Loop mode without reset. Allows the recording/ playback of
images in sequential order at a selected speed starting from actual indicator
position.
• Single Cine-Loop Mode with reset. Allows the recording/playback of images in
sequential order at a selected speed starting from initial (first) indicator
position.
• Erasing Memory. Allows the erasing of the full memory.

10.2 Recording to and playback from memory modes.

The M W R write/read command signal manages the memory storage operations
described as follow:

[' ATTENTION: O = GROUND 1 = OPEN

MWR DESCRIPTION

Memory Write. If MWR= GND user can record an image to the memory.
The video input (Live or LIH) present on BUS is transferred to the memory
0
at the position where indicator is found and with selected mode. (See list
of modes.)
Memory Read. If MWR= OPEN (1) user can playback an image from the
memory. The frame displayed will correspond to indicator position at this
1 time. The frame will be transferred to BUS with selected mode. (See list of
modes.)
