Locations and Functions of Parts
SYNC connector
Used for output of SD composite sync signal or an HD tri-
level sync signal from the internal sync signal generator.
(Factory setting: SD composite sync)
For details on the signal selection, contact a Sony service
or sales representative.
d
PROMPTER (tele-prompter) connectors (BNC-
type)
Input a teleprompter signal to either of the two connectors.
The input signal is output from the other connector as
is(loop-through output). If loop-through output is not used,
terminate the unused connector at 75 ohms. If the signal
used is a 1.0 Vp-p, 75-ohm signal, it may be output from
the PROMPTER OUT connector of the video camera with
a frequency bandwidth of 5 MHz, regardless of signal
format.
RET4 (return video input 4) connector
When required, either of the PROMPTER connectors can
be assigned for the fourth return video input, exclusively
for analog VBS signals.
For details on the assignment, contact a Sony service or
sales representative.
e
Ethernet connector
Used to connect an Ethernet switch to construct a network
with devices, such as a Master Setup Unit of the MSU-900
series, connected to the Ethernet switch to communicate
among the devices.
As for the usable Ethernet switch, contact a Sony service
or sales representative.
Ethernet is a registered trademark of Xerox Corporation.
For details on settings for the Ethernet switch, refer to the
operation manual supplied with it.
For safety, do not connect the connector for peripheral
device wiring that might have excessive voltage to this
port.
Par mesure de sécurité, ne raccordez pas le connecteur
pour le câblage de périphériques pouvant avoir une tension
excessive à ce port.
Aus Sicherheitsgründen nicht mit einem Peripheriegerät-
Anschluss verbinden, der zu starke Spannung für diese
Buchse haben könnte.
f
MIC1, MIC2 (microphone output 1, 2) connectors
(XLR 3-pin)
Used for output of the microphone signal to the video
camera.
g
CAMERA connector (optical fiber connector)
Used to connect a video camera, using an optical fiber
cable. All video camera signals, including power supply,
control, video, and audio, are sent and received over one
optical fiber cable.
Dust on the connection surface of the optical fiber cable
may result in transmission errors. When not connected,
always cover the end of the connector with the supplied
cap.
h
Expansion slots
For installation of an optional HKCU1001 SD Encoder
Unit, HKCU1003 Multi Interface Unit, or HKCU1005
SDI Output Expansion Unit.
For details on installation, contact a Sony service or sales
representative.
i
INTERCOM/TALLY/PGM (intercom/tally/
program audio) connector (D-sub 25-pin)
Used for input and output of intercom, tally, and program
audio signals.
Connect to the intercom/tally/program audio connector of
the intercom system.
j
RET1, RET2, RET3 (return video input 1, 2, 3)
connectors (BNC-type)
Three different return video input signals may be received
independently.
The selection of RET 1, 2, or 3 is made by the return switch
of the video camera.
The type of input signal on RET 1, 2, and 3 may be set to
HD-SDI, SD component SDI, or analog VBS, using the
setup menu, or using the MSU-900 series Master Setup
Unit.
For details on the setup menu, contact a Sony service or
sales representative.
Refer also to the Master Setup Unit manual.
k
MIC REMOTE (microphone remote) connector
(D-sub 15-pin)
Using this connector, the video camerafs microphone
input level may be set by external equipment such as an
audio mixer, in five level (-60, -50, -40, -30, and -20 dB).
When shooting, set the volume to a level appropriate for
the audio conditions.
This connector also outputs a red tally signal and a green
tally signal.
