ETHERNET

Use the settings on the Ethernet tab to configure the GIG-E port. Each camera or device requires a unique IP

address. For camera-to-camera communication via Ethernet, both cameras need to be in the same sub-net

(have the same netmask address) and have the same gateway address.

Enable DHCP: Enables DHCP. If a DHCP-server is available in the communications network, the camera

obtains an IP address, netmask address, and gateway address automatically from the DHCP server. You

cannot manually enter anything in the IP Address, Netmask, and Gateway fields when this check box is

selected.

Enable Camera to Camera: A change to settings on this camera is sent to other cameras via the network as

a SET command (as UDP packets). The SET command then sets the property on other cameras. If this

camera receives a SET command, the camera does not send the command to other cameras/devices.

Enable External Control: This camera can be controlled via TCP/IP from an external device.

WIFI

The settings on the WiFi menu are only used when a REDLINK Bridge is attached to the DSMC. For more

information, see the

REDLINK Bridge Operation Guide

, available at

www.red.com/downloads

.

REDMOTE

Use the REDMOTE menu to pair a REDMOTE to the DSMC. For more information, go to

“Pair the REDMOTE”

on page 143

.

REDLINK Enable: When selected, the DSMC produces a wireless signal. Disable wireless in any setting in

which the wireless signal could interfere with other devices, such as in a helicopter.

REDLINK Channel: Select the communication channel for the REDLINK wireless connection in the event of

interference from other wireless devices.

GPIO/SYNC

SYNC

Use the Sync menu to set up genlock and Motion Control (MoCo). For more information, go to

“Timecode,

Genlock, Multi-Camera Setup” on page 150

.

SENSOR SYNC MODE
Sensor Sync Mode allows the shutter timing (scan start) to sync to an external signal.

Off: Sensor runs at the current sensor frame rate. This is the default option.

Genlock: Sensor synchronizes with the incoming compatible genlock signal.

MoCo: Each rising edge on the sync input triggers a frame to be captured.

GENLOCK SOURCE
Select a genlock input:

Brain (Default)

Rear Module (Pro I/O Module or 4K Broadcast Module)
