External Power
The Prosilica GC camera family has recently been updated to offer an expanded input
power voltage range. The camera serial number is used to differentiate between
cameras that offer 5-16 VDC and those that offer 5-25 VDC.
SN: 02-XXXXX-0XXXX, 5V - 16V. 12V Nominal.
SN: 02-XXXXX-1XXXX, 5V - 25V. 12V Nominal.
To find more information about the power voltage range update for the
Prosilica GC family, follow this link:

A 12V power adaptor with Hirose connector can be ordered from AVT:
P/N 02-8003A North America Supply
P/N 02-8004A Universal Supply
Camera In 1 and Camera In 2
Input signals allow the camera to be synchronized to an external event. The camera can
be programmed to trigger on the rising edge, falling edge, both edges, or level of this
signal. The camera can also be programmed to capture an image at some programmable
delay time after the trigger event.
Camera In 1 is isolated and should be used in noisy environments to prevent false
triggering due to ground loop noise. Camera In 2 is non-isolated and can be used when
a faster trigger is required and when environmental noise is not a problem.
DO NOT EXCEED 5.5V ON SIGNAL INPUTS UNLESS OTHERWISE
INDICATED
See Chapter Camera I/O non-isolated user circuit example on page 53
for wiring information.
