2.5 External Power Supply Requirements
Input Voltage: DC 7.5V (minimum) to DC 14V (maximum). Voltage not in this range might
cause permanent damage to the motor controller or the hand controller.
Input Plug: Barrel type with 2.0mm I.D and 5.5mm O.D. Must be central positive.
Input Current: At least 750mA.
Do not use an unregulated AC-to-DC adapter. When choosing an AC adapter, a switching
power supply with 12V output voltage and minimum 750mA output current is recommend-
ed.
If the power voltage is too high, the motor controller will stop the motors automatically.

PART II: ELECTRONIC CONTROL INTERFACE
The SNAP port provides two trigger signals
to the stereo plug. For a camera which only
needs a shutter-release signal, either trigger
signals will work. For a camera which requires
an extra "Focus" signal, both signals should
be connected properly.
