Mode 2:Trigger mode (asynchronous reset)
• IMG-7W2-TO-5BNC cable required for TTL external trigger source and
PULSAR/DIG/MOD required for digital data, syncs and control signals in RS-422
format.
• TTL external trigger source should be connected to the TTL Trigger Input of the IMG-
7W2-TO-5BNC cable.
• all connections are as in Mode 1: Continuous mode
• it is recommended that the non-used data bits are not left floating, in other words, the
data bits 10(+) to 15(+) should be connected to 0V and the data bits 10(-) to 15(-)
should be connected to 5V.
