If you require twisted pair wiring, you must build a custom cable. Refer to
the connector pin assignments in Figure 4-3 and the
section of Appendix A,
, to build a custom cable for
the 15-pin D-SUB connector.
Figure 4-3.

Connector Signal Connection Descriptions
Table 4-1 describes the MDR 26-pin and 15-pin D-SUB signal
connections.

I/O Connector Signals
Signal Name
Description
TTL_TRIG<3..0>
TTL external triggers/DIO lines (I/O).
DGND
A direct connection to digital GND on the IMAQ 1426.
ISO_IN<1..0>±
30 V isolated input only lines.
Use these lines instead of, not in addition to, TTL_TRIG<1..0>.
RS422_IN<1..0>±
RS-422 signalling standard input only lines.
Use these lines instead of, not in addition to, TTL_TRIG<3..2>.
X<3..0>±
LVDS Base configuration data and enable signals from the camera to the
acquisition device.
XCLK±
Transmission clock on the Base configuration chip for Camera Link
communication between the acquisition device and the camera.
SerTC±
Serial transmission to the camera from the image acquisition device.
