The shutter control connector provides a direct interface to control an external shutter
and/or a trigger input when the camera is operating in one of the external trigger modes
(refer to section 3.7 Setting Frame Rate, Exposure Time, and Exposure Mode for more
information on operating in external trigger modes). These signals are TTL compatible
(i.e. Vlow_max=0.8V, Vhigh_min=2.4V).
The shutter control output is a signal that is active (high) while the camera is in the
exposure state. For example, if the exposure time is set to 1 second then this signal would
be high for the 1 second exposure and then low while the camera is reading out. This
signal can be used to control an external shutter, opening it when the signal is high and
closing it when the signal is low and preventing image smearing caused by light exposure
during read out. You can also modify the signal using the software commands,
sct
and
scp
. Refer to section 3.8 Controlling the Camera’s Shutter and Strobe for details.
The direct trigger input has the same function as the CC1 control signal on the Camera
Link interface. The specific function of this trigger depends on the camera’s operating
mode but is similar to EXSYNC signal described in section 2.2.2.
A mating connector and cable for this interface is available from DigiKey, PN: 167-1009-
ND (1 meter length).
