Auxiliary Power Outputs
The camera provides two auxiliary power output connectors on its back panel. Each output sup-
plies un-regulated +11.5 to 17V battery pass-through power between pins 1 and 4. Maximum
sustained current draw is 1.5 Amp per output. These power output pins are over-current pro-
tected, and are only activated by the camera on boot up. If the over-current circuits trip, power
cycle the camera to re-activate the outputs.
Mating connector LEMO FGG.0B.304.CLAD42Z
Functions of the GPI and GPO pins can be configured by the operator, however the default
setting for the upper connector is Pin 2 = Record Start/Stop and Pin 3 = Record Tally. For the
lower connector, the default setting is Pin 2 = Record Next Frame and Pin 3 = Record Com-
pleted. This preset is suitable for animation or motion control applications.
To activate a GPI trigger, momentarily short pin 2 to 1.
When active, the GPO tallies present 3.3 V @ 0.04 amps maximum between pins 1 and 3.
WARNING: If creating a GPI trigger cable is very important you do not short pin 4 to pin 3,
as this will cause damage to the camera’s power supply; this is not covered by Warranty.
Timecode Input / Output
This connector supports SMPTE Timecode input and output. Pins 2 and 3 may be used together
to receive a balance SMPTE 12M serial time code input, or pin 2 may be used by itself (leave pin
3 open) to receive a single-ended SMPTE 12M serial time code input. Pin 5 is time code output.
