5.7.2 Electrical Characteristics
Figure 17 shows a schematic for the opto-isolated input line. See the previous section for input
voltages and their significances. The absolute maximum input voltage is +30.0 VDC. The current
draw for the input line is between 5 mA and 15 mA.
As an example, the use of a TTL or CMOS logic gate in the external circuit is shown.
For more information about input line pin assignments and pin numbering, see Section 5.2 on
page 28.
For more information about how to use an externally generated frame start trigger (ExFSTrig) signal
to control acquisition start, see a following version of the manual.
For more information about configuring the input line, see a following version of the manual.
5.7.3 Selecting the Input Line as the Source Signal for
a Camera Function
You can select Line 1 to act as the source signal for the following camera functions:
 the acquisition start trigger
 the frame start trigger
 the frame counter reset
 the trigger input counter reset
Note that when the input line has been selected as the source signal for a camera function, you
must apply an electrical signal to the input line that is appropriately timed for the function.
For more information about selecting Line 1 as the source signal for a camera function, see a
following version of the manual.
