Compatible with one monochrome, area or line scan Base Camera Link™ camera, the PC2-Camlink is a snap to interface to you r vision system thanks to the Camera Link standard and DALSA’s innovative visual status LED. When you connect the camera cable and external triggers the PC2-CamLink visual status LED s, mounted on the bracket, provide an immediate visual indication that all signals are present and active. To further simplify setup, the PC2- Camlink provides direct power (5V or 12V) to your camera. Parallel I/O Connector • 8-bit in/8-bit out registered interface to simplify connectivity to other ma chine vision equip m e n t • Pin-to-pin connector compatible with o the r PC2 Series and PC Vision c a rd s The PC2-CamLink has been engineered within DALSA's exacting Trigger- to- Imaging Reliability technology framework to control and monitor the entire image acquisition sequence.
