Falcon 4 Camera User's Manual
Camera Operation
Refer to Figure 6: 12-pin Hirose Circular Male Power Plug—Power Connector for the connector pin
out and electrical information. The cable shell and shield should electrically connect the camera
chassis to the computer chassis for maximum EMI protection.
Figure 14 Opto-coupled input
Each input incorporates a signal debounce circuit (following the opto-coupler) to eliminate short
noise transitions that could incorrectly be interpreted as a valid pulse. The duration is user
programmable from 1 µs to 255 µs using CamExpert.
Opto-Coupled Outputs
The outputs are unpowered devices and require external power. The simplified diagram below
demonstrates the need for a pull-up resistor when using the outputs.
