12V
Connect the wires of the first output device to 12V
(Pin 2) and DO1 (Pin 4).

Connect the wires of the second output device to 12V
(Pin 6) and DO2 (Pin 8).

The table below shows the DI/DO connection specifications:
Device
DI
Connection design
TTL - compatible logic levels
Voltage
To trigger (low)
Logic level 0: 0V ~ 0.4V
Normal (high)
Logic level 1: 3.1V ~ 30V
Current
10mA ~ 100mA
DO
Connection design
Transistor (Open Collector)
Voltage & Current
< 24V DC, < 50mA
Typical Connection
Based on these specifications, if the DI device has a voltage of 0V ~ 30V or the DO device has a
voltage of < 24V (<50mA), then the camera can supply internal power to these devices and there
is no need to connect the DI/DO device to an external power source.
In this case, wire connection to Pins 1 to 4. Use the GND and DI1 pins to connect a DI device and
use the 12V and DO1 pins to connect a DO device. See wiring scheme below:
