TM-6760 Series Progressive Scan Shutter Cameras
Installation
2.2 Camera Setup
2.2.1 Heat Dissipation
The TM-6760 camera is a compact 648K x 484K camera. Since all the electronics have been packed in
a compact package, the outer case of the camera gets hot due to heat dissipation. JAI, Inc. recommends
the following procedure for optimal performance of the camera:
1. Mount the camera on a large heat sink (camera bracket) made out of conductive
material like aluminum.
2. Make sure the flow of heat from the camera case to the bracket is not blocked by a non-conducting
material like plastic.
3. Make sure the camera has enough open space around it to facilitate the free flow of air.
4. If possible, use a cooling fan to set up a positive air flow around the camera.
2.2.2 Connector Pin Configurations
2.2.2 (a) 12-Pin Connector (TM-6760)
FIGURE 3. 12-Pin Connector on Rear Panel of Camera
The TM-6760 has a 12-pin Hirose connector for power input, serial
communication, and signal integration. Pin #1 is Ground and Pin #2 is +12V
DC. Other pins handle a number of input and output functions, as shown in
Table 1 below.

2.2.2 (b) 12-Pin Connector (TM-6760CL)
The TM-6760CL has a 12-pin Hirose connector for power input and signal integration. Pin #1 is Ground
and pin #2 is +12V DC. The pinout table is shown below. For the TM-6760CL, serial communication
camera control is done via the MDR26 Camera Link connector on the rear panel of the camera.
