LEDs 1 and 2
The following states are displayed via the LEDs:
Com/S1
asynchronous and isochronous data transmission active (indicated
asynchronously to transmission over the 1394 bus)
Trg/S2
LED on – waiting for external trigger
LED off – receiving external trigger
Blink codes are used to signal warnings or error states:
Class S1
Error code S2

1 blink
DCAM
2 blinks

The following sketch illustrates the series of blinks for a Format_7_error_1:
Figure 11 Warning and error states
You should wait for at least 2 full cycles because the display of blinking codes starts
asynchronously – e.g. on the second blink from S2.

Operating the camera
Power for the camera is supplied either via the FireWire™ bus or via the HiRose plug.
The input with the highest voltage provides power to the camera.
The input voltage must lie within the following range:
Vcc min.: + 8V
Vcc max.: +36V
