    Datalogic S.r.l. does not support the use of these cameras in any manner other than described herein. MX-U81 cameras acquire an image when a signal is present on the trigger input of the camera trigger cable, then digitize images at the camera source and transmit them directly to the processor over the USB cable. These cameras provide 8-bit resolution using internal 12-bit A/D converters and some have progressive scan shutter exposure (allowing individual pixel readings).

  • Page 56: Processor Inputs

    MX-U81 Hardware Guide Processor Inputs The MX-U81 Processors contain sixteen general-purpose input connections. Two inputs serve as both event and polled inputs (Inputs 1 and 2). The remaining inputs are polled. The event inputs are interrupt-driven which means that a change of state on the input will immediately cause an action and any inspection task that uses that input will run.
  • Page 57 MX-U81 Hardware Guide Input Wiring Current Sourcing (PNP) Input Circuit The diagram below shows how to wire a sensor to a general purpose or event input for model numbers containing the let- ter “P.” All inputs are compatible with current sourcing output signals. Pin 1 is the “Input Minus Common” connection for all the inputs.

  • Page 58: Processor Outputs

    All output connections must use properly grounded and shielded cable. Note: The Trigger Signal and Strobe Output for MX-U81 cameras are separate and not part of the MX-U81 Processor inputs and outputs. See MX-U81 Cameras on page 3-1 for details.
