7.4.3 PLC Power and I/O Cable
As with the standard power and I/O cable described in the previous section, the PLC power and
I/O cable is a single cable that connects power to the camera and connects to the camera’s I/O
lines.
The PLC power and I/O cable adjusts the voltage levels of PLC devices to the voltage levels
required by the camera, and it protects the camera against negative voltage and reverse polarity.
Close proximity to strong magnetic fields should be avoided.
Basler offers PLC power and I/O cables with 3 m and 10 m lengths. Each cable is terminated with
a 12-pin Hirose plug (HR10A-10P-12S) on the end that connects to the camera. The other end is
unterminated. Contact your Basler sales representative to order the cables.
Note
We recommend using a PLC power and I/O cable if the camera is connected
to a PLC device.
You can use a PLC power and I/O cable when the camera is not connected to
a PLC device, if power for the I/O input is supplied with 24 VDC.
