If you purchase a camera with the water cooled housing, you cannot use the cables that come with the unit. You must purchase them separately and the cable part number needs to end in CG4.

The Standard Process Interface (PIF) cable turns an Ethernet-based Xi series thermal camera into a fully integrated part of your control system. It carries analog and digital signals in and out of the camera and adds RS485 serial communication, all terminating in a labeled terminal block that wires straight to your PLC, controller, or process equipment. If you need your camera to trigger on an external event, output a live temperature to a controller, or raise an alarm, this is the cable that makes it happen.

One Cable for Analog, Digital, and RS485
The PIF cable provides a 0 to 10 V analog input, a 0/4 to 20 mA analog output that can also serve as an alarm output, and a 24 V digital input, plus RS485 serial communication. That combination lets the camera both receive commands from your process and send temperature or status data back to it. Integrated electronics handle the signal conditioning, and a 5-outlet terminal block with clear color coding (ground, digital input, power, analog input, and analog output) makes wiring quick and unambiguous.

Reliable Signals Over Long Distances
RS485 is built for the plant floor, carrying data reliably over long cable runs where other interfaces would degrade. That makes it easy to place the camera where the measurement needs to happen and route its data back to a control room or cabinet without losing signal integrity along the way.

Programmable Through PIX Connect
Every input and output is configured in the free PIX Connect software, so you decide exactly what each line does. Analog and digital inputs can set emissivity, apply ambient temperature compensation, supply a reference temperature, control th
