Control and video data signals

The inputs and outputs of the camera can be configured by software. The differ-
ent modes are described below.

Inputs

The optocoupler inverts all input signals. Inversion of the signal is controlled
via the IO_INP_CTRL1..2 register (see

Table 25: Advanced register: Input con-

trol

on page 117).

Triggers

All inputs configured as triggers are linked by AND. If several inputs are being
used as triggers, a high signal must be present on all inputs in order to generate
a trigger signal. Each signal can be inverted. The camera must be set to external
triggering
to trigger image capture by the trigger signal.

Note

For a general description of the inputs and warnings see the
Hardware Installation Guide, Chapter PIKE input descrip-
tion.
