3.10. Input/Output Signal Types
With the system, many signals can be input and output through the BNC connectors. Signals that
can be input and output from the BNC connectors are listed below.
A signal other than the specified signal must not be input to the various connectors.
Use extreme caution as there is a risk of damage to both devices, the input device and the
output device.
3.10.1. External Signal Input Compound Cable
◆
T-TTL IN Connector
While working in trigger waiting state or under ENDLESS trigger mode, an outputted pulse signal is
recognized as a trigger signal. As a result, record action will start / end according to current recording
mode.
An input voltage of 0V~+12V(H level +4.5V~+12V), positive/negative polarity, and a more than 50
nsec trigger time are preferred.
A working current of 10mA~25mA is recommended (Max current is 25mA).
◆
T-SW IN Connector
While working in trigger waiting state or under ENDLESS trigger mode, a shield and center pin
connection of BNC cable will be recognized as a trigger signal.
Do NOT contact the center pin with other pins while operating since a voltage is always applied to
the center pin.
◆
SYNC IN Connetor
Pulse signal inputted from other devices is recognized as a synchronized signal.
An input voltage of 0V~+12V(H level +4.5V~+12V), positive/negative polarity, and a more than 50
nsec trigger time are preferred.
A working current of 10mA~30mA is recommended (Max current is 30mA).
3.10.2. External Signal Output Compound Cable
◆
TRIG OUT
Trigger signal output for external devices (5V).
◆
SYNC OUT
For a synchronization between multi devices(IDP-Express to IDP-Express, or IDC-Express to other
devices), a vertical synchronizing signal is outputted.
◆
GEN OUT
For future extension.
