Nikon MRDI, RDI

Power

Per the standard, power is not provided on the CameraLinkTM connector of the camera. Power is

supplied through the Hirose connector.

Port Assignments

See Tables 3.4.1 for the options of using the CAM/CMOS - 2K.LS with CameraLinkTM.

In CameraLinkTM, a port is defined as an 8-bit word as shown in Figure A.2. The least significant bit

(LSB) is bit 0 and the most significant bit (MSB) is bit 7. The full configuration CameraLinkTM utilizes

eight ports, "A" through "H," although the CAM/CMOS - 2K.LS Model Camera only requires three,

again as shown in Figure A.2.
