Joystick Override Operation

Joystick Override Operation

Joystick override control is used primarily when several camera operators
are using a common monitor to check the adjustment of their cameras. Each
camera control unit (CCU) has a momentary contact switch which is wired
to the

OPTION

connector of Performer-HD. (See the Installation section of this

manual.) The Performer-HD output is connected to a common video mon-
itor. Joystick override operations follows.

An initial source is sent to the monitor using the Performer-HD control
panel. This will be the default source.

To use the Joystick Override:

1.

Press and hold the switch on the CCU to check the signal coming out of
the camera. As long as the switch is held down, the video of the
associated camera is displayed on the monitor.

2.

Release the switch to return to the default video. The default video
source becomes the current selection on the Performer-HD control
panel.
