3. Connect a 9-pin DE9 machine control cable between your VTR’s RS422 control port
and the breakout cable’s RS-422 machine control connector.
4. Connect two SDI cables between the KONA card (BNCs are on the card endplate) and
your digital VTR (Digital Betacam etc.): one from KONA card’s SDI In to the VTR SDI
Out, and one from card’s SDI Out (1 or 2) to the VTR SDI In. The KONA LHe Plus SDI
connections have embedded audio so the VTR must be configured accordingly.
5. If you have an AES/EBU-ready audio monitoring system, connect the two channels of
AES/EBU output from KONA’s XLR connectors (channels 1 and 2) to the monitoring
system AES/EBU inputs. If, instead, you have an analog audio monitoring system, you
can use either the XLR balanced audio connectors or the two RCA-style unbalanced
stereo output jacks on the Optional KL-box for output.
