(Note when using the C2 pigtail cable: I/O signals are not isolated. The maximum voltage level is 
limited to 5 V. The outputs are not capable of load driving) 
IMPORTANT NOTE: When using C2 power & I/O cables (standard or pigtail) with length longer than 
20 m it is recommended to supply the camera with a voltage of 24 V
