Inspection tasks and range position

Dense 2 × 2 µm monochrome sampling distinguishes this rolling-shutter 12 MP variant. The Stacked BSI CMOS device in MV-CT0MG0120/R outputs 4096 × 3024 px in monochrome at 9.9 fps. A rolling shutter, 2 × 2 µm pixel pitch and 1/1.56-inch sensor format define the optical side; Gigabit Ethernet on the RJ45 connector defines the data side.

The rolling shutter directs MV-CT0MG0120/R toward stationary board inspection, indexed feature measurement and dense mono capture, where motion during sensor readout can be controlled. Exposure extends through 26 µs to 10 s. Off, Once and Continuous exposure modes set the available acquisition behaviour. The 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm (1.1" × 1.1" × 1.7") body accepts C-mount optics. IP40 protection applies with proper lens installation and wiring, and the working range is –30 °C to 60 °C (–22 °F to 140 °F).

Neighbouring cameras show where this combination should be retained. MV-CT0CG0120/R keeps 4096 × 3024 px and 9.9 fps but changes the output to Color. MV-CT0MG0120/G provides 4096 × 3000 px at 9.9 fps with a global-shutter monochrome path over Gigabit Ethernet. MV-CT0MG0200/R provides 5472 × 3648 px at 5.9 fps with a rolling-shutter monochrome path over Gigabit Ethernet. Retain MV-CT0MG0120/R when Mono output, Gigabit Ethernet and PoE are needed together at 9.9 fps.

Selection and applications

Grayscale feature capture at 4096 × 3024 px. Stationary monochrome inspection with a rolling shutter. Full-frame acquisition up to 9.9 fps.

Minimum kit: Use MV-CT0MG0120/R with a C-mount lens, a Gigabit Ethernet cable to the RJ45 connector, and either PoE or 9 V DC to 24 V DC power through the 8-pin M8 A-Code connection.

Nearby in the range: MV-CT0CG0120/R — Prefer it for Color output at the same 4096 × 3024 px and 9.9 fps.; MV-CT0MG0120/G — Prefer it for 4096 × 3000 px, 9.9 fps and global-shutter monochrome capture.; MV-CT0MG0200/R — Prefer it for 5472 × 3648 px, 5.9 fps and rolling-shutter monochrome capture..

FAQ

Which suggested lenses cover the sensor in MV-CT0MG0120/R?

For MV-CT0MG0120/R, the C-mount matches are MVL-KF3524M-25MP and MVL-KF5024M-25MP. Their image circles cover the 1/1.56-inch sensor, and the 25 MP lens class is above the camera’s 4096 × 3024 px matrix. Both therefore match the stated mount, sensor coverage and resolution requirement.

How should power and cabling be arranged for MV-CT0MG0120/R?

The camera accepts 9 V DC to 24 V DC and also supports PoE. The RJ45 connector carries Gigabit Ethernet; the 8-pin M8 A-Code connection provides DC power and I/O when separate power is used. Consumption is typically 1.4 W at 12 V DC.

What data interface and peak acquisition rate does MV-CT0MG0120/R provide?

Data uses Gigabit Ethernet at 1 Gbit/s through RJ45 and remains compatible with Fast Ethernet. The stated full-frame ceiling is 9.9 fps at 4096 × 3024 Mono 8. MVS and software meeting the GigE Vision protocol are supported.

How do shutter timing and exposure affect motion work with MV-CT0MG0120/R?

This is a rolling-shutter CMOS camera, so stationary or strobed scenes suit geometry-sensitive work. It reaches 9.9 fps, with exposure from 26 µs to 10 s. Exposure operation includes Off, Once and Continuous.

Which image-reduction and I/O functions are available on MV-CT0MG0120/R?

Binning and decimation each support 1 × 1, 2 × 2 and 4 × 4 operation. Horizontal and vertical reverse-image output is available. The 8-pin M8 A-Code I/O provides one opto-isolated input, one opto-isolated output and one bidirectional non-isolated line for sequencing.

What enclosure conditions and temperature range apply to MV-CT0MG0120/R?

Operation is rated from –30 °C to 60 °C (–22 °F to 140 °F), with 20% RH to 95% RH (no condensation). The housing is 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm (1.1" × 1.1" × 1.7") and weighs approximately 116 g (0.3 lb.). Its IP40 rating applies under proper lens installation and wiring, so the station must provide conditions consistent with that protection level.
