1 Precautions

General

Do not drop, disassemble, repair or alter the device. Doing so may damage the camera

electronics and cause an electric shock.

Do not let children touch the device without supervision.

Stop using the device and contact the nearest dealer or manufacturer for technical

assistance if liquid such as water, drinks or chemicals gets into the device.

Do not touch the device with wet hands. Doing so may cause an electric shock.

Make sure that the temperature of the camera does not exceed the temperature range

specified in 5.2 Specifications. Otherwise the device may be damaged by extreme

temperatures.

Installation and Maintenance

Do not install in dusty or dirty areas - or near an air conditioner or heater to reduce the risk

of damage to the device.

Avoid installing and operating in an extreme environment where vibration, heat, humidity,

dust, strong magnetic fields, explosive/corrosive mists or gases are present.

Do not apply excessive vibration and shock to the device. This may damage the device.

Avoid direct exposure to a high intensity light source. This may damage the image sensor.

Do not install the device under unstable lighting conditions. Severe lighting change will

affect the quality of the image produced by the device.

Do not use solvents or thinners to clean the surface of the device. This can damage the

surface finish.

Power Supply

Applying incorrect power can damage the camera. If the voltage applied to the camera is

greater or less than the camera’s nominal voltage, the camera may be damaged or

operate erratically. Please refer to 5.2 Specifications for the camera’s nominal voltage.

※ Vieworks Co., Ltd. does NOT provide power supplies with the device.

Make sure the power is turned off before connecting the power cord to the camera.

Otherwise damage to the camera may result.

5 Product Specifications

5.1 Overview

The VP-61MX-18 H, the latest model of the industrial proven VP series, is a new 61 megapixel CoaXPress

camera and based on the latest CMOS image sensor technology (IMX455) from Sony Semiconductor Solutions

Corporation. The VP-61MX-18 H offers up to 17.9 frames per second at 9568 × 6380 resolution. This camera

uses thermo-electric Peltier (TEC) cooling technology developed for and used by many demanding medical

market customers. The TEC maintains the operating temperature of the image sensor at up to 15 degrees below

ambient temperature. The VP-61MX camera provides a stable operating condition and the ability to expose for a

long period of time to increase the camera’s sensitivity. Featuring high speed and high resolution with stable

performance, this camera is ideal for demanding applications such as FPD, PCB and semiconductor inspections.
