Power supply
You can either use Power over Ethernet (PoE) or the power supply of the external digital I/O port.
Digital I/O port
The following connector is required for the digital I/O port:
- 15 pin HD D-Sub (female)
Pin allocation D-Sub connector (male) of the cameraYou can configure the digital I/O port as RS422 or as single-ended input or output. It is also possible to configure one output as RS422 and the other output as single-ended.
