This connector is intended for the power supply as well as for controlling the
camera by the user.

Furthermore some output signals are available, showing the camera state.

Power supply (pin 1-4)

The camera requires 12 V +5% DC. Current consumption depends on model. See
chapter

Specifications

on page 14.

Serial interface (pin 7, 8)

By use of the serial interface at pin 7 and 8 the camera can be controlled exter-
nally via a RS232 COM port.

A simple terminal program (e.g. HyperTerminal) is sufficient for manually con-
trolling the camera.

Mode input (pin 9)

The mode input provides a method for switching the camera between the con-
tinuous operation and image-on-demand (IOD) mode using an externally
applied signal. This input has the same function as the camera control signal
CC4. For more information: see chapter
