This jack is intended for the power supply as well as for controlling the camera
by the user.
Power supply (Pin 1-4)
Bigeye P-132
The camera requires 12 V +5% at a current capacity of maximum 0.8 A.
After attaining the end cooling temperature (- 20 °C) the current capacity goes
down to approx. 1.9 ... 2.3 A. The exact value also depends on the ambient tem-
perature of the camera (not for Bigeye P-132B, because it is uncooled).
Bigeye P-629
The camera requires 12 V +5% at a current capacity of maximum 2.8 A.
After attaining the end cooling temperature (- 20 °C) the current capacity goes
down to approx. 1.3 ... 1.7 A. The exact value also depends on the ambient tem-
perature of the camera.
Bigeye P-1100
The camera requires 12 V +5% at a current capacity of maximum 3.0 A.
