6.2 Power Supply
The power connector needs to be connected to the supplied power adapter or
an equivalent model. When using an alternative power supply, please make
sure that the voltage is in the permitted range of 11 - 14 V DC. Higher voltages
might damage the device. A power supply with a maximum output current
of at least 2 A is recommended, in order to supply sucient power to the
cameras (up to 900 mA on each USB port). If the cameras consume less than
the permitted maximum current, or are powered externally, then a smaller
power supply can be used.
The power connector uses a male 3 pin Binder 718/768 series connector.
The pin assignment is shown in Figure 4. The following manufacturer part
numbers correspond to matching connectors, and should be used for custom
power supplies:
99 3400 00 03
Matching connector with solder termination.
99 3400 100 03
Matching connector with screw termination.
99 3400 550 03
Matching connector with cutting clamps termination.
6.3 Trigger Port
The trigger is a signal that is sent to the stereo camera pair. At the moment the
signal is received, both cameras synchronously acquire an image. The trigger
