Connecting the Camera
WARNING: Never wire M1xx Camera Strobe Outputs in parallel with M1xx, M2xx, or M3xx Camera Strobe Outputs.
This will damage the cameras.
M1xx Camera Connection
To connect M1xx camera power, trigger signals, and strobe outputs, use cable 606-0674-xx (6
pin Hirose Male to DB9) with terminal block 661-0399.
NOTE 1: If Camera Trigger In requires a sinking signal, set the Software Trigger Event to Rising Edge. If it requires a
sourcing signal, set the Software Trigger Event to Falling Edge.
NOTE 2: If Strobe Trigger Output requires a sinking signal, set the Strobe Trigger Output to Falling Edge. If it requires a
sourcing signal, set the Strobe Trigger Output to Rising Edge.
NOTE 3: Disconnecting the camera will turn on some strobe lights.
