Constructing a Power & Control Cable by hand

Refer to the following when constructing a Power & Control Cable by hand without using the supplied one.

A: Molex connector

B: Molex crimp terminal

C: Lead wire

D: Connector compatible with the device to be connected


Construction procedure

  1. Crimp the crimp terminal (B) to the lead wire (C) using a Molex crimp jig.
  2. Attach the crimp terminal made in step 1 to the connector (A).
  3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 depending on the number of pins to be used.
  4. Connect the attachable connector (D) to the device to be connected.

Reference parts

Information on the parts used in the supplied Power & Control Cable

A: Made by Molex/430250600

B: Made by Molex/462355001

D: Made by SMK/LGP0038-0100F

Note

  • Use a connector and crimp terminal compatible with Molex Micro-Fit 3.0 6 pin (430450622).
  • Use a gold-plated crimp terminal.
  • Be sure to connect to the power (+)/GND (-)/FOCUS/TRIGGER/EXPOSURE terminal correctly. If you connect to the wrong terminal, there is a risk of malfunction, smoking or fire, etc.
  • The usable voltage range is DC 10 V – 18 V (on the terminal side of the camera body). Calculate the impedance so as to be within this range and construct a cable.
