Cables
When a cable is referred to in this user’s manual, it will be referred to by its connectors.
E.g. Le 10p, Fi 3p. Connectors are manufactured by W. W. Fisher, Lemo or Hirose and are
referred to as Fi, Le and Hi respectively. The cable identification begins with the connector that
is attached to the
camin
unit followed by the connector which is attached to non-cmotion unit or
cmotion accessory. Each connector also takes reference from the number of pins it has. E.g. Le
10p, Fi 3p means that the cmotion connector is a 10pin Lemo and the other end is a 3pin Fischer.
Cables may also be referred to by their commonly used names e.g. LBUS (Le 4p, Le 4p).
Occasionally, cable connectors are referred to as ‘m’ or ‘f’ to identify whether the connector is
male or female. For a full overview of cables, please download the cmotion cable guide available
from www.cmotion.eu.
