1. Power consumption is measured on the AC side of the supplied
12 V AC/DC power supply. Camera consumes less energy from
12 V power supply than state here.
2. The camera contains its own power supplies inside, so it can be
powered by unregulated 12 V DC power source – the input voltage
can be anywhere between 10 and 14 V. However, some parameters
(like cooling efficiency) can degrade if the supply drops below
12 V.
3. G3 and G4 camera measures its input voltage and provides it to the
control software. Input voltage is displayed in the Cooling tab of
the CCD Camera control tool in the SIPS. This feature is important
especially if you power the camera from batteries.
Warning:
The power connector on the camera head uses center-plus pin. Although all
modern power supplies use this configuration, always make sure the
polarity is correct if you use own power source.
Mechanical Specifications
Compact and robust camera head measures only 154×154×74 mm (approx.
6×6×3 inches). The head is CNC-machined from high-quality aluminum and
black anodized. The head itself contains USB-B (device) connector and
12 V DC power plug, no other parts (CPU box, USB interface, etc.), except
a “brick” power supply, are necessary. Integrated mechanical shutter allows
streak-free image readout, as well as automatic dark frame exposures, which
are necessary for unattended, robotic setups. Integrated filter wheel contains
5 positions for standard 2-inch filter cells with M48×0.75 thread. There are
three M3 threaded holes around each filter position, which allow fixing of
filters without cells (only a glass) up to 51 mm diameter.
