3.9.1 Selecting the Correct CBX Connection Box for Your Application
As shown in section 3.3, typical applications require a single CBX connection box to connect
the trigger and encoder inputs to the master camera. The camera sources power to these
devices. Other possible CBX connections are for digital outputs or a serial host.
 CBX100/CBX500 - used for slave cameras (and as an alternative for master cameras). It
provides general access to digital input/output signals.
 CBX510 - used for typical standalone or master cameras (cannot be used for slave
cameras). It provides general access to digital input/output signals. It doesn't require
special jumpers to set operation or power sourcing.
 CBX800 - used for Fieldbus communication between standalone or master cameras and
a Host. Various Fieldbus modules can be installed in the CBX800. The master camera
communicates through its main serial interface to the CBX800 which must be
programmed for the specific Fieldbus communication to the Host. It also provides general
access to digital input/output signals.
The table below indicates the available options for each recommended CBX Connection Box.

IMPORTANT: Although multiple AV7000 cameras can have a CBX
box, only one of the CBX boxes in the system can have the Jumper
to make it the Master.
