3. Camera Functions

3.1 12-Pin Connector

The 12-pin Hirose connector is located on the rear plate of the camera. All ground signals on pin # 1, 3, 5, 8, 10, and 12 are common grounds. Although +12 V DC input is recommended on pin #2, this camera should withstand +12 V ± 1V input voltage. Make sure to set the NRM/ASM switch to NRM position on rear plate for external HD and VD locking. Apply TTL signal on HD (pin # 6) and VD (pin # 7) inputs if necessary, see section 4.1 for details. Figure 3 below shows a top view of the 12- pin Hirose connector.

3.2 Shutter Speed Dial Switch

Shutter speed dial switch is located on the rear panel (Figure 4). For normal shutter speeds, it has 9 different shutter speeds to select from. Position # 0 is standard scanning speed, 1/60 second. As “Position #” goes higher, the shutter speed goes higher and the video becomes darker.

3.3Normal and Asynchronous Capture Mode (NRM/ASM)

NRM/ASM switch is located on camera rear plate. Figure 5 shows all mode switch selections.

For normal operation, either with or without shutter speed, NRM should be selected.

This camera DOES NOT provide asynchronous capture feature.
