*
Before applying power to the camera we strongly recommend to verify the used pins of the
power connector, the polarity (+/-) of the leads and the supply voltage.
The camera may only be used with a supply voltage according to the camera specification.
Connecting a lower or higher supply voltage, AC voltage, reversal polarity or using wrong
pins of the power connector may damage the camera. If doing so, the warranty will expire
immediately.
3.3 Status LED
A dual colour LED on the camera backplane shows the operating condition of the MC132x.
LED orange... The MC132x is configuring the internal FPGA. No other activity is possible.
