Description
Cidtec ICM7000FX1 Video Camera Interface Frame Grabber BNC DB9 0304-9339
The Cidtec ICM7000FX1 is a compact benchtop video camera interface and frame grabber designed to connect industrial or machine vision cameras to a host computer system. It routes video output, camera control signals, and synchronization signals between a camera head and a host, with a dedicated FRAME GRAB function switchable via a front-panel toggle. The unit is part of Cidtec's line of imaging interface electronics aimed at industrial inspection, scientific imaging, and machine vision applications.

Applications
The ICM7000FX1 belongs to Cidtec's family of camera interface and frame grabber electronics, which were developed primarily for industrial machine vision, scientific imaging, and automated inspection systems. This type of interface box sits between a camera head — typically a CCD-based industrial camera — and a host computer, managing video output, synchronization timing signals (SYNC in/out, HDR in/out), and external trigger lines. The frame grab function allows a single frame of video to be captured and held for processing or analysis by the host. With its array of rear BNC signal ports for sync, strobe, blanking, and video data routing, the ICM7000FX1 was suited for environments where precise timing control between camera, lighting, and host was required — such as semiconductor inspection stations, laboratory imaging setups, and industrial quality control lines. Cidtec produced camera systems and interface electronics primarily from the 1980s through the 1990s, making this a vintage piece of machine vision infrastructure that may still serve legacy imaging systems or collectors of early industrial imaging hardware.
This Cidtec ICM7000FX1 Video Camera Interface has been inspected and is in good used condition. The chassis is intact with minor surface wear consistent with normal use. Front-panel connectors, the FRAME GRAB toggle switch, and the BNC rear ports all appear clean and undamaged. Both green PWR indicator LEDs are present.
