Power
Plug the power cable from the back of the SVM340 into a 90
–
240 VAC
power outlet.
Communication
The female 9-pin D-sub connector is for RS232 communications. This link
allows the SVM340 to receive programming and commands from an
external controller, e.g., a computer running the uScope application or
LabVIEW through the provided serial cable. A USB/RS232 converter can be
used for computers without an RS232 port.
Video Output
Video Output Ports are only used for the Analog Optics Modules. Video
Output for the Digital Optics Module (DP1 or DP5) is via the USB cable
connected directly to the front or bottom of the Optics Module.
Digital Inputs
and Outputs
The four digital inputs and three outputs on BNC connectors provide TTL
level communication with external equipment. The inputs can be used to
control or strobe the four LED illuminator channels or to trigger more
advanced behaviors. The outputs are selectable and include video timing
information, motion status information, and several advanced
programmable flags. The inputs and outputs are set from the menu
