DIGITAL IF (Interface) connector (26-pin)
You can connect a Camera Link cable to this
connector to control a camera module from a host
device utilizing the serial communication protocol
while outputting a video signal from the camera
module. You can input the external trigger signal/
external sync signal via the 26-pin connector and
operate a camera module in the external trigger mode/
external synchronization mode. The pin configuration
of this connector is as follows.

Connecting the cables
Connect the Camera cable to the DC IN connector and
the Camera Link cable to the DIGITAL IF (Interface)
connector respectively. When you connect the Camera
Link cable, turn the two Fastening screws on the
connector to secure the cable tightly.
Connect the other end of the Camera cable to the DC-
700/700CE and the other end of the Camera Link cable
to the camera module interface board.
Note
When you operate a camera module by inputting an
external trigger signal via the 26-pin connector, make
sure to input external trigger signals that meet the
following specifications to both the two pins.
Specifications for the External Trigger Signal
Amplitude: LVDS using a 3.3 volt IC
Polarity: positive
Connections: Input a TRIG (–) signal to the 9th pin.
Input a TRIG (+) signal to the 22nd pin.
