3 DASM/LCAM Host Control Serial Link (Digital DASM Only)

RS232 serial host control interface, 25-pin D-type connector

• pin 2 (TX)

• pin 3 (RX)

• pin 7 (GND)

A null modem cable may be required (reverses pins 2-3) between some cameras.

• baud rate = 1200

• start bits = 1

• stop bits =1

• parity = even

• end of message = CR

• protocol = ACK/NACK (3M M952)

4 DASM LEDs

DASM green LEDs viewed from front of DASM and air vents at bottom. The “RDY” and “XFR” LEDs only exist on the analog VDB DASM.

• PWR - on whenever DASM power applied (+5VDC)

• CPU - flashes idle heartbeat at 1 CPS or indicates CPU activity

• SCSI - flashes when OC and DASM communicate over the SCSIbus

• PIF - flashes when the DASM and camera communicate over the serial port

• RDY - analog VDB only, indicates an image is ready to be “grabbed” by the camera video/analog input port

• XFR - analog VDB only, indicates an image is being “grabbed” by the camera video/analog input port

5 DASM/LCAM Image Data Interface

RS422/RS485 8-bit digital image data interface, 37-pin D-type connector (3M M952 defacto industry standard digital interface).

• pixels: 512

• lines: 512

• bits/pixel: 8

• protocol: 3M M952

The gray scale reference bar option at the left of the filmed images is NOT supported by the digital filming interface.
