Cautions:

•Do not remove the camera cover. Disassembly of the camera (including removal of the

cover) can cause permanent damage and will void the warranty.

•Operating the camera outside of the specified input voltage range or the specified

operating temperature range can cause permanent damage.

•The camera is not sealed. Avoid exposure to dust and moisture and replace the lens cap

when not in use.

•Do not image extremely high intensity radiation sources, such as the sun, lasers, arc

welders, etc.

•The camera is a precision optical instrument and should not be exposed to excessive

shock and/or vibration. Refer to the Product Specification (ISC doc. 102-0005-09) for

detailed environmental requirements.

•This camera contains static-sensitive electronics and should be handled appropriately.

•If you have questions that are not covered in this manual, or need service, contact

Customer Support at (805) 964-9797 for additional information prior to returning a

camera.

1INTRODUCTION

The Photon is a long-wavelength (7.5 – 13.5 microns) uncooled microbolometer camera designed

for infrared imaging applications that demand absolute minimum size, weight, and power

consumption. It is available with five different lens options: 14.25 mm focal length (50° H field of

view or FOV), 19 mm focal length (36° HFOV), 30 mm (23° HFOV), 35 mm (20° HFOV) or 50

mm (14° HFOV). The camera provides “power-in, video-out” capability, which means that one

need only apply input voltage to receive analog video. For those applications demanding more

advanced control the Photon includes a serial interface (RS-232) for transmitting camera

commands and receiving status. Photon provides digital data interface via a parallel interface.

Input Power

Included with the Photon camera is an AC/DC converter that generates 8VDC input power from

110 VAC or 220 VAC. If you prefer to provide your own power supply, please verify that the

input power at the camera connector meets the specifications shown in Table 3 when applied

across PWR_IN and GND pins.

CAUTION: Reversing polarity of input power will damage the camera’s internal power supply

and repair is not covered under the camera warranty.

Analog Video Output

The video output of the Photon camera can be configured to either NTSC or PAL-compatible.*

In either case, the output is intended to drive a 75-ohm load. Use of coaxial cable with 75 ohm

characteristic impedance is strongly suggested. The analog video signal is across the

VIDEO_LO and VIDEO_HI pins. See Table 4 for a list of other relevant video parameters.

Note: To use the Photon Isotherm option, the video monitor must be color capable. For display

of Photon video without Isotherm capability, a monitor complying with the monochrome-

equivalent standard shown in Table 4 can be used.

*NTSC is the U.S. standard for color analog video. PAL is the European standard.

Photon User Guide 412-0035-00-10 Version 100

Command and Control Channel

Remote control of the Photon camera is provided via a RS-232 serial interface consisting of

signals named RX, TX and GND using 3.3 volt signal levels. Section 7 provides information

regarding remote control using the Photon OEM GUI. The Electrical Interface Control

Document (ISC doc. 102-1238-41) describes the serial communications protocol for the Photon

camera.

Digital Data Channel

Photon provides a digital channel with real-time serialized digital video. The camera outputs

either 8-bit or 14-bit data using the SD_CLK±, SD_FSYNC± and SD_DATA± signals.

Conversion of the digital data to a parallel format for data acquisition requires a serial-to-parallel

converter accessory or an Ethernet Module which is also an accessory. Section 8 provides

information regarding the digital data interface. Also, the Electrical Interface Control Document

(ISC doc. 102-1238-41) describes the specific timing information.

External Synchronization

Photon camera provides the ability to either accept or output frame synchronization if needed.

1. Slave Mode: The camera will accept a frame synchronization signal on the interface

connector (DIS0_EXT) when configured as a slave via the serial communications port. The sync

signal starts the FPA frame timing sequence. The sync signal consists of a positive going, 3 volt

pulse as defined in Table 5. The frame sync signal should be sent only once per frame and the

camera core will not output digital data until a valid frame sync is received. The video output

(analog) of the camera core is enabled while in external sync mode, however, the video frame

rate depends upon the external frame sync rate (e.g. the analog video may not conform to timing

standards). The camera synchronization state must be set prior to power-up (e.g. after the mode

is changed and saved, the camera must be re-started).

0 to 30 Hz 135ns

2. Master Mode: The camera will output a frame synchronization signal on the interface

connector (DIS0_EXT) when configured as a master via the serial communications port. The

sync signal corresponds to the start of the FPA frame timing sequence. The sync signal shall

consist of a positive going, 3 volt pulse as defined in Error! Reference source not found. . The

frame sync signal shall occur only once per frame. This signal output is intended to drive one

Photon which is configured for slave mode operation.

Voltage Outputs

The Photon camera provides two conditioned voltage outputs, 3.15V_OUT and 1.5V_OUT,

intended to power auxiliary electronics and accessories. The characteristics of these two outputs

are shown in Table 7.

The Photon camera allows for custom defined I/O pins that can be programmed at the factory for

selected applications. Contact FLIR Systems Customer Support at (805) 964-9797 for details.
