Interface connector location
figure 3-35, position of MX X2G2 interface connector
Cable have marked ends. It is important to connect the end marked “CAM” to the camera and end marked “BOB” to
host or adapter. Swapped orientation can cause damage to camera. It is important that the power is turned off when
inserting/detaching the cable. Connecting camera to powered host can cause destruction of camera. For detaching cable the
connector need to be unlocked, otherwise connector soldering may be damaged.
