GigE 4K scanning with selectable TDI
Selectable 1-Line and 2-TDI imaging is specified for MV-CL042-91GM, a 4096 × 2 Gigabit Ethernet camera. Its CMOS array uses 7 × 7 µm pixels and runs at 28 kHz in standard mode or 80 kHz in high-bandwidth mode. Exposure ranges from 5 µs to 10 ms, and the network port supports 1000 Mbit/s Gigabit Ethernet with backward operation at 100 Mbit/s.
This model fits measurement of moving webs, edges or repeated parts when 4096 samples are required across the line and the acquisition architecture is Ethernet-based. Four configurable I/O connections accept single-ended or differential timing, allowing an encoder or controller to govern line capture. The IP40 body measures 62 × 62 × 41 mm and operates from -20 °C to 55 °C.
MV-CL042-91GC matches its 4096 × 2 geometry, 7 µm pitch and 28/80 kHz rate pair. MV-CL024-91GM reduces line length to 2048 pixels and reaches 86 kHz in high-bandwidth Mono 8, while retaining a Gigabit Ethernet link. MV-CL044-91NM keeps network transport but moves to 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, a 4096 × 4 array and 1-Line, 2-TDI or 4-TDI modes.

Engineering data for this model
Calculated by the MVisionPro engineering tools from the passport data of this model for typical tasks. The figures are estimates for preliminary selection.
Engineering conclusion: At 500 mm/s and 0.1 mm longitudinal sampling, the working rate is 6000 Hz; the confirmed mode allows 28000 Hz (460 % reserve against the un-margined requirement).
Note: This comparison uses explicit two-axis sampling and the listed passport line-rate mode; it does not claim encoder or CIS sizing.

How these figures were calculated
- Assumption: Cross-web and along-motion sampling steps are distinct.
- Assumption: The working line rate includes the explicitly selected engineering margin.
- Assumption: Motion speed is constant along the selected motion axis.
- Warning: Spatial sampling is an engineering estimate; measurement performance must be confirmed by calibration.
- Assumption: A selected camera is checked only against its passport interface profile.
Engineering tools
Selection and applications
4K GigE inspection. 2-TDI moving-web scanning. Encoder-synchronized line imaging.
Minimum kit: Install the MV-CL042-91GM with an M42*1.0 line-scan lens, a Gigabit Ethernet cable, and a 12 V DC to 24 V DC supply sized for 5.8 W.
Nearby in the range: MV-CL042-91GC — Prefer it when the required 4096 × 2, 28/80 kHz configuration has specified consumption of 6.6 W.; MV-CL024-91GM — Prefer it for a shorter 2048-pixel mono line at up to 86 kHz.; MV-CL044-91NM — Prefer it for 4-TDI and 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet..

FAQ
Which image modes can be selected on the MV-CL042-91GM?
The camera lists 1-Line and 2-TDI modes for its 4096 × 2 CMOS array. Maximum line rate is 28 kHz in standard mode and 80 kHz in high-bandwidth mode, with exposure adjustable between 5 µs and 10 ms.
What lens dimensions must match the MV-CL042-91GM line?
The camera has an M42*1.0 mount and 12 mm flange back length. Select line-scan optics with coverage for the 4096-pixel line and resolving performance appropriate to the 7 × 7 µm pixels and required object sampling.
How are data and input power connected to the MV-CL042-91GM?
The camera takes 12 V DC to 24 V DC and consumes 5.8 W. Plan the documented DC input for power alongside the Gigabit Ethernet connection for image transfer, with the four configurable I/O lines reserved for machine timing.
How can MV-CL042-91GM be synchronized to moving material?
Four configurable input/output lines are provided and support single-ended or differential signals. These lines can carry the required machine timing independently of the Gigabit Ethernet image path, whose high-bandwidth line-rate ceiling is 80 kHz.
When is the longer MV-CL044-91NM array a better fit?
MV-CL042-91GM provides 4096 × 2 and 1-Line/2-TDI at up to 80 kHz. MV-CL044-91NM provides 4096 × 4, adds 4-TDI, uses 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet and reaches 160 kHz after a reduced region of interest.
