Cable assembly – Lemo to loose wire

The Lemo to loose wire cable assembly (EDT part #016-02650) can be wired as needed or connected to various types 
of connectors, depending on your application.

Cable assembly – Lemo to male DB9

The Lemo to male DB9 cable assembly (EDT part #016-02718) supports signals that can be used as an auxiliary 
signaling system for a variety of purposes. 

For example, with custom firmware you could control the camera’s pan and servo motors, or set up a hardware trigger 
that is local to either end. If you wish to explore these options, contact EDT.

Unlike the DB9 in the female assembly, this DB9 has no looped-back signals or integrated level conversion.

Table 7

 shows the pin assignments and how the standard firmware uses each wire.

Cable assembly – Lemo to female DB9 RS232

The Lemo to female DB9 cable assembly (EDT part #016-02445) supports integrated CMOS +3.3 V to RS232 level 
converters on a small circuit board inside the DB9 connector shell. 

This cable is designed to plug in directly to a host computer serial port. The cable offers an auxiliary serial UART 
connection over the fiber, in addition to the UART normally associated with the Camera Link standard. This auxiliary 
UART can be used, for example, to control the camera’s pan and zoom servo motors from the host at 19.2 Kb/s or less. 
Alternatively, it can be used for other low bandwidth signals.

All five CMOS 3.3 V signals go to 
FPGA I/O 3.3V pins using series 
100-ohm resistors. 

Custom firmware can be used to 
configure these pins as input or 
output.
