2.2 Camera Trigger
The PT-210M has the ability to provide the user with an external camera trigger. The
trigger is activated each time a detection occurs. The camera trigger circuit provides the
user with an interface between the PT-210M and an externally connected device (i.e.
relay, still camera or video camera.) When the camera trigger is activated, a switch-to-
ground is closed for the user-selected time period – 0 to 1.5 seconds in 50 millisecond
increments.
The camera trigger exits the PT-210M through the "A" pin of the auxiliary "AUX"
connector and pin "G" is ground.
2.3 Communications
Communications operations are conducted through the AUX connector using a separate
Smart Cable (part# WI001615-003) connected to either a desktop PC computer or a
PDA-4000 Handheld PRogrammer
2.4 Antenna
The supplied stainless steel 1/4 wave right-angle whip antenna attaches to the TNC
connector on the PT-210M.
2.5 Power Source
2.5.1 Primary Source
The PT-210M's flexibility allows for use of a variety of DC battery power sources to
supply the unit. If a custom power source is used, it must adequately supply a +9 to +15
volt DC source with capacity rated for the operational life desired.
The standard power source is an 8 cell, 9 volt alkaline battery pack, (EN22 or equivalent)
contained within an integral battery compartment A battery pack comprised of three D-
cell lithium batteries may be substituted for use in extreme cold deployments.
There is no ON/OFF switch on the PT-210M. The unit is operational upon connection of
the power source and sensors.
