130 Appendix F: The Matrox Iris GTR breakout board
ICS3 connector
The ICS3 connector (J7) is a series of 5 wire-terminals that has been designed to
connect to a lighting controller (such as, an Advanced Illumination inline control
system (ICS3)
,
a Smart Vision Lights Brick light, or a similar device). This
connector has several potential uses: to power the lighting controller, to provide
an analog intensity (dimming) control signal, and/or to trigger your lighting
controller.
❖ Note that, this connector was designed to make an easier connection to a lighting
controller, like an Advanced Illumination inline control system (ICS3), a Smart
Vision Lights Brick light, or a similar device. When connecting to another type
of third-party device, we recommend using the output connector (J6) instead.
