Applications and neighbours
The imaging balance in MV-CH100-60UM starts with 4096 × 2460, 36 fps and mono output. The CMOS sensor uses a global shutter; its 3.45 × 3.45 µm pixels cover a 1 inch sensor; the image path is USB 3.0; the optical interface is C-mount. The monochrome output suits measurements and contrast-based inspection where color separation is not the measured feature.
Likely machine-vision duties are host-local measurement, moving-part inspection and monochrome defect analysis. The global shutter keeps the 4096 × 2460 frame temporally aligned on moving or indexed objects, while 36 fps sets the available acquisition cadence. USB power is supported, with a 9 V DC to 24 V DC external input as the other stated option. The 6-pin P7 connector provides the listed control lines for coordinating acquisition with the machine.
Two same-category references are MV-CH100-60GM and MV-CH120-10UC. The first combines 4096 × 2460, 11.6 fps and Gigabit Ethernet; prefer it when gigabit ethernet is the required image interface. The second uses C-mount optics with color output at up to 30.5 fps (V4.0) or 23.1 fps (base version). Prefer it when color output is required.

How these figures were calculated
- Assumption: Stream bandwidth uses the confirmed wire bits per pixel before protocol overhead.
- Assumption: A selected camera is checked only against its passport interface profile.
- Warning: The passport frame rate is tied to the stated mode conditions.
