Connecting to other
signals You can also use a DBHD44-TO-8BNC/O cable if you need to connect to other
signals (such as, special user input and output signals) in addition to RGB video
signals. The DBHD44-TO-8BNC/O cable is an open-ended version of the
DH44-TO-8BNC cable.
Units with Matrox Meteor-II /Digital
To interface video sources to a Matrox Meteor-II /Digital frame grabber (designed
for Matrox 4Sight-M), use one or two VHDCI-TO-OPEN cables to connect to
the unit’s digital video input connectors. These cables have a VHDCI connector
on one side, and are open-ended on the other.
Connecting to digital
input signals You can interface digital video sources to Matrox Meteor-II /Digital. To do so:
1. Refer to the Technical reference appendix, for the pinout of the digital video input
connectors on Matrox 4Sight-M.
2. Attach the open-ended side of the cable to connectors designed to interface with
your cameras, and connect them to the cameras.
3. Attach the VHDCI connector to the digital video input connector "Digial video
in 1" of Matrox 4Sight-M

cables to the Camera Link connectors on the Matrox 4Sight-M unit.
Connecting to other
signals Other signals, such as special user input and output signals, can be accessed
through the 44-pin video input ("Video in") connector of Matrox 4Sight-M. The
pinout of the video input connector, found in the Technical reference appendix,
contains a list of all the signals available for the interface. For customers planning
to build their own cable, parts can be purchased from:
1. A single camera might require interfacing to both digital video input connectors if its
image acquisition format uses 3 x 8-bit, 2 x 16-bit, or 1 x 32-bit configurations.
