Camera Link interface (01-04 or
tions. Both Camera Link serial interfaces (and also the third RS-232 interface at
the 15-pin D-sub connector) are virtually equal. They all use one global baud
rate setting. They also share the same receive buffer. Output characters (includ-
ing echo) are always sent to all activated serial ports. The ports are not intended
for concurrent activity, although it might be possible under particular circum-
stances.
However, the serial ports at
O2
and
O4
(or at
CL1
) may be deactivated.
Trigger inputs (CC1)
The two Camera Link connectors
O2
and
O4
(or connector
CL1
) each provide a
camera control signal
CC1
. A rising edge at either input may start an exposure.
It depends on the trigger input selection
T
and the current trigger mode
M
, which
of the two
CC1
inputs is enabled and how it controls the exposure time.
Note
The
Bonito CL-400B/C 200fps
cameras provide only one Cam-
era Link channel. The serial interface via Camera Link is only
available at the CL1 connector.
