Powering and connecting
To power your Matrox Iris GTR and connect its I/O signals to your Matrox
Iris GTR breakout board, perform the following:
1. Connect the gray-pink and green wires of the Matrox Iris GTR digital I/O and
power cable to the gray-pink and green wire-terminals of the Matrox camera
connector on the Matrox Iris GTR breakout board, respectively. For information
on how to connect a wire to the wire-terminal, refer to the Connecting an open-wire
to a spring wire-terminal section, earlier in this appendix.
2. If only powering your Matrox Iris GTR, wrap insulating tape around each of the
unused wires of the digital I/O and power cable. Otherwise, connect them to the
appropriate wire-terminals of the Matrox camera connector. For information, see
the Matrox camera connector subsection of the Open-wire connectors reference
section, later in this appendix.
3. Connect the digital I/O and power cable to your Matrox Iris GTR.
4. If connecting third party devices, connect each device to the respective Matrox
Iris GTR breakout board connector.
- Optionally, connect up to four third-party devices that require input to the
Matrox Iris GTR breakout board input connector. For more information, refer
to Input connector subsection of the Open-wire connectors reference section, later
in this appendix.

Note that, if an auxiliary input signals is in sinking mode, then all auxiliary
input signals must be in sinking mode. Similarly, if one is in sourcing mode,
then they must all be in sourcing mode.
