Open-wire connectors reference
The breakout board has four separate cable connectors (see A, B, C and D in the
diagram at the beginning of this appendix) designed for open-wire connections.
Each connector is composed of multiple wire terminals. Each of these wire
terminals requires a stripped cable to be inserted, wire by wire, into the available
holes. Each wire terminal is numbered J1 though J39 on the board.
Smart camera connector
The smart camera connector is a series of 17 wire terminals. It connects to the
digitial I/O and power connector of your Matrox Iris GT, using the open-wire
digital I/O and power cable that comes with the Matrox Iris GT starter kit. Each
wire terminal receives a wire with a color corresponding to the color listed on the
breakout board. This connector provides power to your Matrox Iris GT, receives
Matrox Iris GT auxiliary output signals and controlled-current output (CCS), and
transmits auxiliary input and trigger signals to your Matrox Iris GT. This
connector can also receive and transmit RS-232 messages.
