2.6 Triggering External Peripherals (Camera and So Forth)

The DLP LightCrafter features a trigger output on connecter J7 to allow cameras and other peripherals to

be in sync with the EVM. The trigger output is an open drain type with a 10 kΩ internal pull-up resistor.

This works well with cameras accepting a standard TTL level trigger input. Some cameras with global

trigger capability require a minor hardware change on the DLP LightCrafter system board in order to

function correctly. For more information, read Using the DLP® LightCrafter™ to Trigger CCD Cameras

from The Image Source®, TI literature number DLPA032. Figure 2-31 shows the "Output Trigger Settings"

in the GUI.
