24 V RS

Two (2) Fischer 3-Pin OL connectors supply 24 V (regulated) power out at a maximum sustained current draw of 3 A. Each connector also includes a run/stop (R/S) trigger input. To operate the contact closure style trigger, short Pin 3 (R/S) to Pin 1 (ground). This port is protected by a circuit breaker that automatically resets.

WARNING: Do not apply voltage to Pin 3 (R/S).

NOTE: These ports do not provide power when the camera is powered by a 14 V battery. However, these ports will retain the ability to Start/Stop the camera.
