2.4.3 PLC I/O Cable
As with the standard I/O cable described in the previous section, the PLC I/O cable is a single cable
that connects to the camera’s I/O lines.
The PLC I/O cable adjusts the voltage levels of PLC devices to the voltage levels required by the
camera, and it protects the camera against negative voltage and reverse polarity.
Close proximity to strong magnetic fields should be avoided.
Basler offers PLC I/O cables with 3 meter and 10 meter lengths. Each cable is terminated with a
12-pin Hirose plug (HR10A-10P-12S) on the end that connects to the camera. The other end is
unterminated. Contact your Basler sales representative to order the cables.
We recommend using a PLC I/O cable if the camera is connected to a PLC device.
If power for the I/O input is supplied at 24 VDC, you can also use a PLC I/O cable
when the camera is not connected to a PLC device.
