Page 10 The General Purpose I/O port uses a 3M 10214-55G3PC (or 3M 10214-6212PC) connector on the camera side. The mating cable connector is 3M 10114-3000PE with shielded housing 3M 10314-3210-00X (X indicates color preference). This connector can be purchased from Prosilica or from http://www.digikey.com.
Page 11 To operate the camera 12V Power with suitable current capacity (see specifications) must be provided on Pin 1 and the Power Ground on Pin 2. A cable assembly providing this power can be ordered from Prosilica (Prosilica P/N 02-8007A for North America or Prosilica P/N 02-8008A for a Universal supply).
