Extension Port
The Extension port is located on the back of the camera body.
The 9-pin 0B ODU Extension port supports RS-232 RX, RS-232 TX, and a General Purpose Input (GPI) trigger (active-low switch closure), General Purpose Output (GPO), Timecode, and Genlock. The connector also offers auxiliary 5 Volt power out, with a maximum sustained current draw of 500 mA.
To operate the GPI contact closure style trigger, short Pin 6 (GPI) to Pin 9 (ground).
NOTE: The required mating connector is 9-Pin 0L Straight Plug Connector (ODU, part# SX0L0X-P09MCC0-0001).
