3.10. xiC Digital Input / Output (GPIO) Interface
USB XiC cameras use the 8-pin connector for the GPIO interface and external power supply (AUX) connection and have multiple
options for inputs and outputs. The flex line cameras have one input and one output available through the flex line (see pin-out
above).
