CameraMan CONTROL Center Components
The following information introduces you to each of the CONTROL Center components and their features.
CONTROL Center Control Unit: Standard Unit and autoTRACK Unit
The Control Unit is a unique multiple-camera control device combining pan/tilt, zoom, focus, Iris,
CCU (3-CCD), autoTRACK (on autoTRACK-equipped models), and audio/video switch control.
Models with autoTRACK have autoTRACK view buttons located just above the numerical
keypad. Standard Units have a nameplate in this position.
CONTROL Center Switcher
The Switcher provides switching capability from a maximum of eight audio/video sources to a
maximum of four audio/video outputs. It provides eight genlock outputs for synchronizing the
eight video sources. The genlock signal can be generated internally, or referenced to an
external signal. The front panel has LED displays and adjustment pots for sync level and
horizontal phase when an external reference source is connected to the Switcher. They are not
used when the internal reference signal is being used.
