Outputs
Each A-Series camera contains four general-purpose and one dedicated output connection (strobe).
The camera output’s electrical characteristics:
Supply Voltage (max) ....... 26 Vdc
Turn On Time.................... 250
μS
On Current (max).............. 300 mA
Off Current (max)............. 100
μA
Turn On Delay .................. 50
μS (24 Vdc into 1K-ohm resistive load)
Max Off Current ............... 500
μA
Note: An external power source is require to power an output load. The outputs are merely switches that are open or
closed. All output connections must use properly grounded and shielded cable.
This table lists the connector/terminal number for output signals. See page 5-1 for more details.
