MDR 26-Pin Connector
The MDR 26-pin connector provides reliable high-frequency transfer rates
between the camera and the acquisition device. To access this connector,
use a 3M Camera Link cable. For additional information on Camera Link
cables, including ordering information and cable lengths, refer to the
Camera Link Cables section of Appendix B, Cabling.
Figure 4-2 shows the IMAQ 1428 MDR 26-pin connector assignments.
Refer to Table 4-1 for a description of the MDR-26 and 68-pin VHDCI
signal connections.

68-Pin VHDCI Connector
The 68-pin VHDCI connector connects to external digital I/O lines,
triggers, and medium configuration 8-bit × 4 mode. To access these
connections, build a custom cable or use an optional cable from National
Instruments. For information about building a custom cable for the 68-pin
VHDCI connector, refer to the 68-Pin VHDCI Cable Specifications section
of Appendix B, Cabling.
Figure 4-3 shows the 68-pin VHDCI connector pinout. Refer to Table 4-1
for a description of the MDR-26 and 68-pin VHDCI signal connections.
