2. Camera Setup
A basic camera and frame grabber system setup, as shown in Figure 1 below, requires a UP-
680/UP-680CL camera, a standard C-mount lens, a PS-12C power supply or equivalent, a PC
system and a VGA monitor, a frame grabber, and an external trigger device if necessary.

3. Camera Functions
3.1 12-Pin Connector
The 12-pin Hirose connector is located on the
rear panel of the camera. All ground signals
on pin 1, 3, 5, and 8 are common grounds.
+12 V DC input is recommended on pin 2, but
this camera should wit12 V
±
1V
input voltage. Make sure to set the NM/AM
switch to NM position for external HD and VD
locking. For HD (pin 6) and VD (pin 7)
inputs, TTL signals are required (see section
6.6 for details). For asynchronous capture
(VINT) applications, refer to section 6 for
details. For RS-232C interface control via this
12-pin connector, use pin # 10 and #12.
Figure 2 below shows a top view of the 12-pin
Hirose connector.
