Camera interfaces

Out 1 – opto-isolated

Out 1 signal is optically isolated and requires a user voltage with a suitable pull
up resistor. Tie signal ground to Isolated IO GND to complete the external cir-
cuit. See

Camera I/O opto-isolated user circuit example

for wiring information.

Out 2– non-isolated

Out 2 signal is not electrically isolated and can be used when environmental
electrical noise is inconsequential and faster trigger response is required. Use
Signal GND to complete the external circuit. The output signal is a low voltage
TTL, maximum 3.3 V
. Not suitable for driving loads in excess of 24 mA. See

Camera I/O non-isolated user circuit example

for wiring information.

Signal ground

Signal Ground must be connected to the user’s external circuit ground if In 2 or
Out 2 is to be used, or if the RS-232 port is to be used. Note that Signal Ground
is common with Camera GND; however, it is good practice to provide a separate
ground connection for power and signal.

Video iris

This signal can be used to drive the video input of a video iris lens. See

Video iris

output description

section for wiring information.

These signals are reserved for future use and should be left disconnected.
