6M3P Camera User's Manual
!
WARNING: Due to initialization sequencing after power-up, no commands should be sent to
the camera for a minimum of 1 second after power up.
The remote interface connector, on the cameras rear
panel, is specified as a low-profile RJ-11 modular
connector. The connector is a 6-position model, but
only the center four positions are populated with
contacts. It will mate with either the 4-position or 6-
position cable plugs. This type of connector typically
requires special assembly tools; complete cable
assemblies are available from suppliers such as Digi-
Key:
DALSA provides serial cables in 3 lengths: 10', 20' and 50'. Part number CL-31-00004-
xx (where xx refers to the cable length in feet).
2.7 TTL Trigger Input and Output
Connector
The camera uses an SMA connector (labeled TRIGGER IN) to allow the user to provide a
standard TTL signal to control camera integration and readout. The input is high
impedance (>10K) allowing the user to terminate at the SMA input as needed. The
camera has another SMA connector (TRIGGER OUT) that provides a standard TTL
output which is high whenever the camera is integrating.

2.8 Integration Time
The minimum integration time (or shutter time) is 10 Ps. If the camera is not strobed or
externally shuttered, an integration time of 10 Ps will create smeared images. To reduce
smearing, the integration time should be 1.5x to 2x the readout time when not using a
strobe or external shutter.
