Notes on cable configurationsThe presence of lighting equipment and television receivers nearby may result in video noise. In such cases, change the cable configurations or placement.
Notes on attaching the lens
Avoiding dust particlesWhen attaching the lens to the camera, stray dust and other particles may adhere to the sensor surface and rear surface of the lens. Be careful of the following when attaching the lens.• Work in a clean environment.• Do not remove the caps from the camera and lens until immediately before you attach the lens.• To prevent dust from adhering to surfaces, point the camera and lens downward and do not allow the
lens surface to come into contact with your hands or other objects.• Always use a blower brush to remove any dust that adheres.
Never use your hands or cloth, blow with your mouth, or use other methods to remove dust.
Phenomena specific to CMOS image sensorsThe following phenomena are known to occur on cameras equipped with CMOS image sensors. These do not indicate malfunctions.• Aliasing
When shooting straight lines, stripes, and similar patterns, vertical aliasing (zigzag distortion) mayappear on the monitor.
• BloomingWhen strong light enters the camera, some pixels on the CMOS image sensor may receive muchmore light than they are designed to hold, causing the accumulated signal charge to overflow intosurrounding pixels.This “blooming” phenomenon can be seen in the image, but does not affect the operation of thecamera.
• Fixed pattern noiseWhen shooting dark objects in high-temperature conditions, fixed pattern noise may occurthroughout the entire video monitor screen.
• Defective pixelsDefective pixels (white and black pixels) of the CMOS image sensor are minimized at the factoryaccording to shipping standards. However, as this phenomenon can be affected by the ambienttemperature, camera settings (e.g., high sensitivity and long exposure), and other factors, be sure tooperate within the camera’s specified operating environment.
Notes on exportationWhen exporting this product, please follow the export regulations of your country or region.

ExposureModeThe following exposure modes are available on the camera.
ExposureMode Description
Off Exposure control is not performed (free-running operation).Timed Mode in which control is performed using exposure time. Acquire images using an
exposure time configured beforehand on an external trigger.TriggerWidth Mode in which control of the exposure time is performed using the pulse width of the
trigger input signal. The exposure time will be the same as the pulse width of the trigger input signal. This allows long exposure.
� The settings for exposure control and triggers are related to each other. Be sure to configure the settingsdescribed in “Trigger Control” (page 24).
Trigger ControlThe camera allows the following controls to be performed via external trigger signals.
TriggerSelector Description
FrameStart Start exposure in response to the external trigger signal input. Select this to perform exposure control using external triggers.
AcquisitionStart Start image acquisition in response to the external trigger signal input.AcquisitionEnd Stop image acquisition in response to the external trigger signal input.AcquisitionTransferStart Output acquired images at a specified timing in response to an external trigger
signal input. � There is a limit to the number of image frames that can be stored internally. The limits foreach image format are as follows. Acquired images must be output to avoid exceedingthese limits.8 bit: Up to 16 frames10 bit: Up to 8 frames12 bit: Up to 8 frames
� The settings for exposure control and triggers are related to each other. Be sure to configure the settingsdescribed in “ExposureMode” (page 24).
Shortest Repetition Period for Triggers
The reciprocal of the maximum frame rate is the time required to output one frame. The shortest repetition periods for triggers cannot be lower than that value.

The above table indicates the shortest trigger periods for when [Trigger OverLap] is set to [Readout]. When [Trigger OverLap] is set to [Off], the exposure time is added to the period.
Actual Exposure TimesThe shortest exposure times that can be configured are as follows.
ExposureMode Shortest exposure timeTimed 30.73 μs (8-bit)
TriggerWidth 30.73 μs (8-bit)� The actual exposure time will consist of the image sensor’s offset duration (13.73 μs) added to the setting configured on the camera.
When [ExposureMode] is set to [Timed] and the exposure time is set to 17 μs, the actual exposure time will be as follows.17 μs + 13.73 μs (offset duration of image sensor) = 30.73 μs
When [ExposureMode] is set to [TriggerWidth], the exposure is slightly longer than the width of the trigger signal. To achieve an exposure time of 30.73 µs and the exposure time offset is 13.73 µs, use 30.73 µs - 13.73 µs = 17 µs as the high or low time for the trigger signal.

Gamma Function
The gamma function corrects the output signals from the camera beforehand (reverse correction), taking into consideration the light-emitting properties of the monitor display.As the light-emitting properties of the monitor are not linear, the entire image may be darker or the gradation in the dark areas may be less noticeable when camera outputs are displayed without processing.The gamma function can be used to correct the camera signals with an opposite-direction curve and produce a display that is close to linear.
Example of the light-emitting properties of the monitor display

BlemishCompensation
Multiple defective pixels that are not adjacent to each other can occur on conventional CMOS sensor cameras.This camera features a function that interpolates defective pixels using the surrounding pixels.Up to 200 pixels can be corrected for each of the three sensors.Pixel interpolation can be performed via automatic detection or point-by-point manual settings.
■ Automatic detectionAutomatic detection can only detect lit defective pixels (i.e., white blemishes).
— 31 —
AP-3200T-USB
1 Shield the camera sensor.
If a lens is attached, use the lens cap as a shield, for example.
2 Configure the threshold level for defective pixel detection.
Up to 200 pixels can be corrected for each of the three sensors.
The threshold value is specified as a percentage.
The default setting is "10" with 10% of the full scale (100%) specified as the threshold value.
3 Execute [BlemishDetect] to start automatic detection.
After detection, the interpolation data is saved to the camera's internal memory.
To check the number of interpolated pixels after automatic detectionYou can check the number of pixels interpolated via automatic detection by loading the BlemishNum data.
■ Manual configuration
1 Select the index in [BlemishCompensationIndex].
You can select from 1 to 200. However, configure the indexes in order starting with the smallest index. If you skip indexes while configuring settings, interpolation may not be performed.
2 Specify the pixel points for interpolation using the [BlemishCompensationPositionX] and [BlemishCompensationPositionY] settings.
Each point is saved to the camera's internal memory as you configure them.
You can configure values that are within the total effective pixel area. Specify pixels for which interpolation is not necessary as -1. If 0 is specified, the first line or first pixel will be interpolated.
NoteBlemishCompensationDataClear [Specify Sensor] [BlemishCompensationIndex] allows you to return a specific pixel correction setting to the default value (storage not required).
3 Execute [BlemishStore], and Blemish compensation data will be stored.
4 Set [BlemishEnable] to [True], and execute interpolation.
If it is set to [False] , Blemish compensation is not effective.
ShadingCorrection
The ShadingCorrection function corrects non-uniformity (i.e., shading) in the amount of light generated by the lens and lighting equipment. Using this function allows correction even if top, bottom, left, and right shading is not symmetrical in relation to the center of the screen (H, V).
This function can be used even when the effective image area is limited (an area with both Width and Height set to more than 128 must must be configured) by the ROI function. In such cases, the correction area is included in the image area configured by the ROI.
For a full image, the number of correction blocks is 17 (H) × 13 (V) blocks and calculation errors in the correction data are minimized due to the small interpolation areas. Each block is 128 × 128 pixels. The total size of the blocks is 2176 (H) × 1664 (V), but the actual number of effective pixels for the camera is 2064 (H) × 1554 (V). The ineffective peripheral areas will be deleted internally on the camera automatically.

AP-3200T-USB
■ FlatShadingCorrection is performed using the area of the screen with the highest brightness level as the reference, and adjusting the brightness levels of the other areas to match this level.
■ ColorShadingR-channel and B-channel properties are adjusted to using the G-channel shading properties as areference.
Pre-correction Post-correction
Caution • For FlatShading and ColorShading, the maximum amount of correction gain for all pixels is limited to
twice the amount of gain before correction. (The amount of gain cannot be increased to more thantwice the amount of gain from before correction.)
• If the area in the screen with the highest brightness level is 300 LSB or less (during 10-bit video

Binning Function
The binning function allows you to combine the signal values of clusters of adjacent pixels to create improved virtual pixels. Using the function results in images with lower pixel resolution and higher sensitivity.This camera performs vertical binning and horizontal binning via digital addition or averaging processing.
ROI (Regional Scanning Function)
The ROI (region of interest) function allows you to output images by specifying the areas to scan.
ROI Settings
Specify the area to scan by specifying width, height, and horizontal/vertical offset values under [Image FormatControl].
� For details on how to configure the settings, see “Configuring the Output Format” (page 15).
You can increase the frame rate by specifying a lower height, as the number of lines scanned decreases.The minimum area is as follows.The setting ranges for the ROI function's readable area based on the Binning setting (BinningHorizontal, BinningVertical) are as follows.

Sequencer Function
The Sequencer function lets you define up to 128 index combinations of exposure time, gain, ROI, and other settings which can be stepped through each time a trigger is received.This is particularly useful for quickly capturing multiple exposures of objects under inspection to adjust for areas or components with significantly different levels of reflectance. You can specify the next index in the stepping sequence and the order in which indexes are executed. Multiple indexes can also be executed repeatedly.
Two operation modes (TriggerSequencer mode and CommandSequencer mode) are available for the Sequencer function.
NoteSequencer function cannot be used together with Sensor Multi ROI function (page 35).
About indexes (imaging conditions)Up to 128 indexes can be configured.The following settings can be configured for each index. However, SequencerFrameNumber and SequencerSetNext can only be configured in TriggerSequencer mode.

[SequencerSetStart]This configures the index number to execute at the start of TriggerSequencer mode.
[SequencerLUTMode]This defines whether to apply gamma or LUT to the sequence.When gamma is selected, the gamma setting defined in [AnalogControl] is applied to all exposures in the sequence. When LUT is selected, the LUT characteristics defined in [AnalogControl] are applied to indexes for which [SequencerLUT enable] is set to ON.
[SequencerReset]During TriggerSequencer mode operation, this switches the index number to be executed to that specified in [SequencerSetStart].
[Sequencer Repetition]This parameter applies to Trigger Sequencer patterns which include an index whose [Sequencer ROI Next Index] is set to OFF.When the index whose [Sequencer ROI Next Index] is set to OFF is finished executing, the value of Sequencer Repetition (range = 1-255) is decremented internally. If the result of the decrement is not zero, the Trigger Sequencer pattern starts over from the index specified in SequencerSetStart. If the result of the decrement is zero, the status changes to Acquisition Stop and external triggers are not accepted.

Noteindicates the end of TriggerSequencer mode) in [SequencerSetNext] of index 2, and specify the number of repetitions in [SequencerRepetition].
Command Sequencer modeAs with TriggerSequencer mode, you can define up to 128 indexes beforehand in this mode. Set [SequencerCommandIndex] to point to one of your pre-configured indexes. This index will be executed on each trigger, until it is changed to point to a different index, typically by your vision application. In this way, Command Sequencer mode allows you to programmatically adjust your sequence in response to image analysis or input from other sensors.
Note• The same index table will be executed for subsequent triggers unless the [CommandSequencerIndex] value is
changed.• [SequencerFrameNumber] and [SequencerSetNext] cannot be used in CommandSequencer mode.

Delayed Readout
Delayed readout allows images captured by a [Frame Start] trigger command to be stored temporarily inside the camera (delayed readout buffer) and read out using a [AcquisitionTransferStart] trigger after capture.This function is useful when executing triggers simultaneously on multiple cameras.
NoteThis function imposes a heavy processing load on the USB 3.0 bandwidth, as images from multiple cameras are read out simultaneously. The delayed readout buffer is 16 frames in length for 8-bit, 8 frames for 10-bit, and 8 frames for 12-bit.
� For details, see “Trigger Control” (page 24).
ALC (Automatic Level Control) Function
The ALC (automatic level control) function combines the automatic gain control (AGC/Auto Gain Control) and automatic exposure control (ASC/Auto Shutter Control) functions, and is capable of handling various changes in brightness.The function operates as follows in response to changes in brightness.

■ To use the ALC functionSet [GainAuto] or [ExposureAuto] or both to [Continuous] mode. Configure the minimum value, maximum value, etc. for AGC and ASC under [JAICustomControlALC].The target video levels for AGC and ASC are configured in [ALCReference]. For example, when [ALCReference] is set to 95%, video levels will be maintained at 95% for AGC and ASC.
Color Space Conversion (Color Transformation Control)
This camera allows you to convert the standard color space (RGB) that is used to produce colors into other color spaces, including XYZ and HSI.Five color spaces are available: RGB(sRGB), RGB(AdobeRGB), RGB(UserCustom), XYZ, and HSI.Specify the desied color space by configuring ColorTransofrmationMode and ColorTransformationRGBMode as follows.
ColorTransformation ColorTransformationMode ColorTransformationRGBModeRGB(sRGB) RGB sRGB
RGB(AdobeRGB) RGB AdobeRGBRGB(UserCustom) RGB UserCustom

CautionIf you set the color space to XYZ or HSI, JAI Control Tool will not display the images captured by the camera properly. To display them properly, XYZ- or HSI-compatible image processing must be performed on the computer side.
Edge enhancer, Color enhancer
This camera is equipped with an edge enhancer function for enhancing the contrast of lines or edges within images and a color enhancer function for enhancing specified colors.
Edge enhancer functionThe edge enhancer function is enabled when EnhancerEnable[Edge] is set to True.Four enhancement levels are available: Low, Middle, High, and Strong.
Color enhancer functionThe color enhancer function is enabled when EnhancerEnable[Color] is set to True.Set a value from 0 to 1 (0.1 steps) for ColorEnhancerValue[ColorEnhancerSelector] to set the enhancement to one of ten levels.(0: no enhancement; 1: approx. x2 the color level of the original data)Six colors can be specified in ColorEnhancerSelector: Red, Cyan, Green, Magenta, Blue, and Yellow.
Counter and Timer Control Function
This camera supports only the counter function.The counter function counts up change points in the camera’s internal signals using the camera’s internal counter, and reads that information from the host side. This function is useful for verifying error conditions via the count value using internal camera operations.Four counters are available on the camera; Counter0, Counter1, Counter2, and Counter3. The functions that can be counted are fixed for each counter.Counter0: Counts the number of FrameStartTrigger instances.Counter1: Counts the number of ExposureStart instances.Counter2: Counts the number of FrameStart instances.Counter3: Counts the number of FrameTransferEnd instances.
When a problem occurs in a system that includes this camera, comparing the values from multiple counters allows you to verify the extent of normal operability and can be useful when investigating the cause of the problem.

Miscellaneous
Troubleshooting
Check the following before requesting help. If the problem persists, contact your local JAI distributor.
■ Power supply and connections
Problem Cause and solution
The power / trigger LED remains lit amber and does not turn green, even after power is supplied to the camera.
Camera initialization may not be complete due to lack of a network connection. Check the 12-pin power cable connection.
■ Image display
Problem Cause and solution
Gradation in dark areas is not noticeable. Use the gamma function to correct the display.As the light-emitting properties of the monitor are not linear, the entire image may be darker or the gradation in the dark areas may be less noticeable when camera outputs are displayed without processing. Using the gamma function performs correction to produce a display that is close to linear.For details, see “Gamma Function” (page 30).
■ Settings and operations
Problem Cause and solution
Settings cannot be saved to user memory. You cannot save to user memory while images are being acquired by the camera. Stop image acquisition before performing the save operation.
I want to restore the factory default settings. Load [Default] under [User Set Selector] in the [Feature Properties] tab to restore the factory default settings.
