Leica MPS48 Cable Pinout request

#1 Post by LBochtler » Fri Aug 04, 2017 6:56 pm

Hello all,

I have recently acquired a Leica MPS48 with a camera head, but am missing the cable connecting the controller to the head.

Since i want to use the shutter in the head (but not the analog back) for my Leica Laborlux 12 microscope, i need either a cable, or the pinout of it, so i can make a new one.

What am i referring to as Pinout, well, ideally id have the actual pinout of the connectors on both ends. However, just knowing the pin mapping on both ends of the cable would be enough to make a new one,

So, if anyone has a MPS48 with the cable, and would be so kind as to determine the pin mapping for me, that would be vastly appreciated. If anyone by chance has the service manuals for both the head and controller, and or the pinouts of both, that would be even better.

I have attached a picture of the rear of the unit, showing the D-Sub connector in question:
