GPIO Isolation
All of the GPIOs are isolated from the rest of the camera and the camera case. They are
not isolated with respect to each other and share a common return (ground) through pin
5 of the GPIO connector.
Note: The shell connection of the GPIO connector is not isolated and it should not be used
as a return (ground) for the GPIO signals. The shell connection is attached to the camera
case.
Programming the GPIO Connector
The GPIO connector is programmed through the QuickCam application or through the
QuickCam SDK.
After you have installed the QuickCam program, refer to the QuickCam User’s Manual or
the QuickCam help topic, GPIO Control, for more information on programming this
connector.
3.5 Camera LED
The camera is equipped with a red/green LED used to display the status of the camera's
operation. The table below summarizes the operating states of the camera and the
corresponding LED states.
When more than one condition is active, the LED indicates the condition with the highest
priority. Error and warning states are accompanied by corresponding messages that
further describe the current camera status.
Table 6: Diagnostic LED
Priority Color of Status LED Meaning
1 Flashing Red Fatal Error. For example, camera temperature is too
high and camera thermal shutdown has occurred.
2 Flashing Green Camera initialization or executing a long command
(e.g., flat field correction commands ccp or ccf).
3 Solid Green Camera is operational and functioning correctly.
