Figure 6 – Lower Rear Camera Connectors

On the rear of the camera are the two 4-pin Auxiliary Power (A, B), 6-pin camera system POWER input (C)

and a 16-pin DRIVE interface (E).

Each Auxiliary Power / GPIO connector can supply 1.75 amps of unregulated 11.5 – 17V DC to accesso-

ries such as range finders or low power lens motors. The upper connector provides a GPI trigger (user

programmable but defaulted to Record Start / Stop) and a Record Tally output. The lower connector pro-

vides a GPI trigger (user programmable but defaulted to Record Start / Stop – for Time-lapse set to

TIMLAPSE in GPIO preferences) and a Frame Recorded Tally output.

The DRIVE interface supplies power and data over e-SATA protocols to record REDCODE (TM) RAW

compressed video data, metadata and audio to RED-DRIVE or RED-RAM digital media.
