6.2.3 External Trigger
The external trigger can be input through the 12-pin connector or Camera Link CC1.
These cannot be used at the same time.
The external trigger signal can be terminated by 75 ohms inside the camera (Refer to Chapter 4.2).
6.2.4 Serial communication
The camera can communicate by serial interface through the 12-pin or Camera Link interface. The
default baud rate is 9600 bps. The serial interface of the 12-pin or Camera Link interface cannot be
used at the same time. The selection of the communication interface can be done via the DIP switch
located on the rear panel. (Refer to Chapter 4.2)
6.2.3 EEN (Exposure Enable) function
This function outputs the timing for image accumulation in all operating modes except test pattern
output. The output can be through both the 12-pin and Camera Link connectors. The polarity of this
output is negative from the 12-pin connector and positive from the Camera Link connector. These
polarities cannot be changed. The following drawing shows the output through Camera Link.

6.2.4 White balance
In this function, the green channel video level is used as the reference. Red and blue channel levels
are adjusted to match with that of the green channel.
There are two ways to adjust white balance: one is gain white balance and the other is shutter
