DC IN 12V   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6.  DIP Switch 

2.

 

RJ-45 Ethernet Port   

 

 

 

 

 

7.  USB 3.0 SuperSpeed 

3.

 

Audio Input   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

8.  RS-232 Out 

4.

 

Rotary Dial (see chart below)   

 

 

 

9.  RS-232 IN 

5.

 

RS-422 Connector   

 

 

 

 

 

     10.  HDMI Out 

 

 

To use the SDI or HDMI output you will need to make sure the 

resolution/framerate of the camera is the same as the destination of 

where you are plugging it in.  

There is a rotary dial on the back of your camera, and this is what you 

need to change to adjust the output of the SDI/HDMI of the 

camera.  The chart on the left tells you what the rotary

 corresponds 

to.

 Be sure the camera is off when you change this dial. 

 

 

Hint: You will not be able to achieve 4K/60p (HEVC) when ISO Recording 

in TriCaster.  However, you can utilize  the MIX recorders while shooting 

4K/60p to work around this. (other resolutions/framerates will work fine)
