Another possible configuration would be:
• The camera is triggered directly from the part sensor, bypassing the VA61.
• The camera’s strobe output is connected directly to the lighting equipment, bypassing the
VA61.
For this case, DALSA offers an optional DCI-100 DALSA Camera Interface module for con-
necting the camera signals to terminal block connectors. The same Control and Power cable is
used to connect the Cameras to the DCI-100. The Camera Connectors on the VA61 would not be
used for the strobe and trigger signals when the DCI-100 is in use.
