Circuit Diagrams (ace)#

This topic provides sample circuit diagrams for connecting your Basler ace GigE or ace USB 3.0 camera to external circuitry.

Info

For electrical requirements of your camera model, see your camera topic. You can find your camera topic in the "Models" section.

Opto-Coupled Input Line#

The following diagram shows a typical circuit using the opto-coupled input line. As an example, a TTL or CMOS logic gate is used in the external circuit.
