BRAIN GPIO

Camera Input: Select one (1) of the following options to configure the input for devices connected to the

SYNC connector on the BRAIN:

Sync In: The camera input is used as a sync-in signal for MoCo.

General Purpose In: Use the Brain GPI In High/Low drop-down menus to map inputs to actions.

Camera Output: Select an options to configure the output for devices connected to the CTRL connector on

the BRAIN:

Sync Out: Provides an output sync signal to act as a shutter start tally.

Recording Indicator Out: Provides a signal when recording is in process.

For more information, go to

“Input/Output Connectors” on page 187

GEN AND SYNC STATUS INDICATORS

The Lower Status Row of the camera display has GEN and SYNC indicators, which change color based on the

current genlock and sync statuses. For more information, go to

“System Status Indicators” on page 55

.

PRO I/O GPIO AND PRO I/O SW

Use the PRO I/O GPI and PRO I/O SW menus to map input and output (I/O) actions to the GPIO and AUX

connectors on the Pro I/O Module.
Low and High refer to the voltage. In practice, Low/High correlate to the press/release of a trigger or the on/

off position of a switch.

Low: The falling edge (transition from high voltage to low voltage).

High: The rising edge (transition from low voltage to high voltage).

For example, if you connect a start/stop trigger to the GPIO connector on the Pro I/O Module and keep the

default GPIO A High and Low settings (Key Disabled and Record: Toggle, respectively), then pressing the

trigger starts/stops recording.
