Connect the 1.5m data cable from the Photometrics CC200 Camera
Controller Unit to the Photometrics CCD camera. This has to be
done in this sequence:
1. Connect the cable to the Photometrics CC200 camera
Controller Unit. It is marked which side of the cable you
should use and what connetor on the Controller Unit to be
used.
2. Remove the blue shorting plug on the backside of the camera,
and connect the cable immediately to the camera. (The camera
should always either have the terminator on, or be connected
to the Controller Unit).
Both the CC200 controller Unit and the camera should be
connected to 110 VAC power.
Optional! The Garmin GPS receiver is connected as shown in
Figure 2. The 12V AC to DC adapter should be connected to 220
VAC power.
The PC used is a standard PC running Microsoft Windows 95. The

port. The PC can be connected to the ethernet, but that is not
required for the camera operation.
