CAMERA
This connector provides the signals necessary to control the iris, focus, and zoom of most 
commercially available TV Zoom lenses. The camera can be configured to operate lenses with 
unipolar voltage requirements of 6V up to 12V or lenses which operate with bipolar voltages 
from ±6V up to ±12V. This voltage level can be controlled through software. The default 
voltage will be set to 6V. The current capacity for each axis is 50mA. 
CARE MUST BE TAKEN NOT TO EXCEED THE LENS MANUFACTURERS 
VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION. 
This connector also provides the signals necessary to operate a video auto iris type of lens.
The lens control connector is a Hirose 3260-8S3. The mating cable connector is Hirose 3240-
8P-C(50). This connector can be purchased from AVT Canada Inc. or from
