    Hello SBIG,

    I have a STXL6303 camera and its power supply with the 8 pin connector.

    I would like to build myself the 8 pin female to 6 pin male adapter cable.

    Is it sufficient to connect the wires according to the following diagrams? :

    8 pin female:

    1,2,4,6: 12V

    3,5,7,8: - (Return)

    6 pin male:

    1,5,6: 12V

    2,3,4: - (Return)

    It will be a 1.5 meter (5 ') long cable.

    Are there any pins that need to withstand a higher current (for example for peltier cells) or are 8 equal 18 gauge wires (0.8 mm2) sufficient?
    Thanks for your attention, sorry for my poor english and best regards from Italy.
