Wiring the Connectors
Each PosiTrack Controller has an RS-232 DB-9 connector, lens control DB-15 high-density
connector, and an AXlink 4-pin connector. Always provide enough cable to accommodate the
desired range of motion for the PosiTrack units and their camera/lenses. The Lens Power switch on
the control panel, removes any power noise on the incoming video by turning power On/Off to
Pin 1 of the DB-15 lens control connector.
