Introduction Thank you for making a choice of our outstanding product of the line scan camera “XCM8040SA”. As always, NED products can help you create a solution that is right for you.
For safety use ▲ Before use, carefully read through this manual for your safety operation. ▲ The warning symbols are indicated at parts where special precaution is required.
Warning Caution
Warning symbol indicates that improper use may result in fatal accident or serious injury. Caution symbol indicates that improper use may result in personal injury or damage to the equipment or property
Safety precaution
Warning ▲ Do not disassemble the camera as not outlined in this manual since malfunction or damage may occur. ▲ Do not touch the pins or metal parts of connecting cable with wet hands. ▲ Do not use the camera where it is subjected to a rain, a drop of water, a poisonous gas or liquid. ▲ When not using the camera for a long time, disconnect the camera cable for the safety sake. ▲ When handling the camera at a height, make sure to take measures not to drop any equipment or parts. ▲ When perceiving smoke, an offensive smell or unusual noise, break the power immediately and pull out the camera cable. ▲ Do not use this camera in the system when unusual camera performance can reasonably be expected to cause significant system trouble.

Instructions before use
Caution ▲ Always use the camera within appropriate ambient temperature. ▲ Always use the camera with specified power supply. ▲ Be careful not to drop the camera on the floor and avoid shock or vibration. ▲ To avoid internal rise in temperature, take enough space for the camera installation. ▲ Take measures to prevent dust proof when using the camera in dusty environment. ▲ To avoid product damages, be sure to cut off power when you pull out or plug in a cable during power on. ▲ Dirt or particles on the window glass may cause a black flaw in the image. Blow off dirt and wipe particles on a glass by a swab with ethyl alcohol very carefully. ▲ When using long wave light out of visible ray, you may have some characteristic influence on camera. ▲ With light source, we recommend daylight fluorescent lamp that has no infrared component. When using halogen amps, use Infrared cut filters. ▲ Too much light quantity on CCD causes super-saturation and it may affect camera characteristic. (This camera has no function of anti-super-saturation) ▲ To get more stable images, make aging for 10 to 20 minutes after power on. ▲ Do not use the same power supply together with motors or so that generates noise. ▲ Protect camera power cable from surging noise of motors or solenoid valves. ▲ Insulate camera in placing to avoid peripheral noise sources. ▲ Do not disconnect the camera while rewriting embedded memory. ▲ When you change the camera setting that is set at NED factory, input the control signal (CC1) from the capture board.
Exclusion Clause ▲ NED shall not be liable for damage that is due to fires, quake, third party’s act, inevitable accident, intentional or improper use or usage under abnormal condition. ▲ NED shall not be liable for damage (lost profit or business interruption, etc.) caused by the use or malfunction of the product. ▲ NED shall not be liable for damage caused by improper usage not following the Instruction of the manual. ▲ NED shall not be liable for damage caused by malfunction coming from combination with other products. ▲ NED shall be no liable for damages caused by user’s repair or adaptation.

9.8 Embedded memory ◇ Erasable flash memory is adopted as embedded memory. ◇ How many times to rewrite embedded memory shall depend on your usage condition.
▲ When turn on power supply, even if you find embedded memory is out of setting range, the memory rewriting to factory set value could be executed automatically.
▲ When you disconnect camera power supply while erasing embedded memory, whole data saved in the memory is deleted. As it takes several seconds for erasing memory, do not disconnect power supply before receiving answer from camera. Commands for erasing memory content are as follows. Memory initialize (z) Memory save (w) Pixel correction data acquisition (W) ▲ When you change the camera setting, send control input signal (CC1) from capture board . ※ If not sending (CC1) or sending control input signals are out of range, you can not only acquire images but also change camera setting.
