Mindsensors NXTCam v4, Руководство пользователя

Страница: 2 / 14

For runtime operations (on the robot, in autonomous mode), the NXTCam connects
to NXT on a sensor port using a standard connector cable that comes with NXT (the
one with jacks similar to phone jacks).
For offline operations (for programming and configurations), NXTCam connects to
PC using mini-USB cable. (This is in addition to the cable
you would use to connect NXT to your PC). Adjacent
picture shows the mini-USB connector you would need on
your USB cable, this connector is commonly used for
digital cameras. If you need to acquire a cable separately, it should be a ‘5 wire’
cable.
