3 Overview Over vie w Ideal for high speed image processing, the XC-HR300 is a small black and white camera featuring a 1/2 type progressive scan CCD. The XC-HR300 can capture excellent quality images at high speeds. By doubling the drive frequency of CCD, full frame SVGA images can be obtained at 50 frames/s on 1 output (progressive 1N MODE) or 10[...]

When the partial scanning is used,[...]

10 Mode Setting Image Output Mode The unit has two image signal output modes. Select the mode by setting the read mode switch on the rear panel. 2I Mode (F actor y Default) The VIDEO OUT 1 and VIDEO OUT 2 connectors output ODD/EVEN interlaced images every 1/100 second. The SYNC signals are the same for the VIDEO OUT 1 and VIDEO OUT 2 connectors. ?[...]

11 Mode Setting Restar t/Reset T o set Restar t/Reset mode The information on one screen can be extracted at any time by externally inputting a restart/reset signal (HD/ VD). To enter this mode, set the Restart reset/ External trigger shutter mode switch on the rear panel of the camera as shown in the figure below. The setting is especially effecti[...]

12 Mode Setting Example of Usage of the P ar tial Scanning Mode As shown in the table on the next page, you can increase the frame rate by setting the partial scanning mode switch and the external VD frequency.
