Safety warnings
Note

Please read through this manual carefully before operating
the camera.
Caution

Electrostatic discharge
The camera contains sensitive electronic components that can
be destroyed by electrostatic discharge.
Use sufficient grounding to minimize the risk of damage.
Models with Camera Link interface (Goldeye CL-...): First
connect CL camera and frame grabber with Camera Link data
cable, then supply power to the CL camera.
Caution

Environmental conditions
Operate the camera in dry and dust free environment.
Regarding the signal quality of the camera it is an advantage to
operate the camera under constant ambient air temperature
(~20 °C).
Beneath or above 20 °C ambient temperature a sufficient
heating or cooling may be necessary.
Cooled camera models (Goldeye xy- ... Cool)
The red LED L3 at the backside examinates the sensor peltier
cooling state. Also register
T has this function. If L3
permanently lights up or rather the lowest bit of T is set, the
sensor’s temperature is beyond the optimum range. In this
case an additional heating or cooling has to be provided.
Caution

Vacuum
Do not loosen the two hexagon socket screws (M 5) in the front
plate.
The vacuum area may get leaky (Cool models only).
