Video iris output description
Prosilica GC cameras provide built-in auto iris controls for controlling video-
type auto-iris lenses. These lenses are available from many popular security
lens companies including Pentax, Fujinon, Tamron, Schneider, etc.
Remote iris lens control allows the camera to be more adaptable to changing
light conditions. It allows the user to manually control the exposure and gain
values and rely solely on the auto iris for adjustment to ambient lighting.
Caution

The following schematic uses CAMERA POWER to power the
video iris lens, and assumes CAMERA POWER = 12 V. Most
video iris lenses operate at a 8–16 V input voltage. There-
fore, this circuit is not appropriate if using a 24 V camera
power supply. Doing so may irreparably damage your lens.
Please consult your video iris lens specifications for the
appropriate drive voltage.
