Selecting a camera when using
serial connection
You can select a camera number using the CAMERA 1
to CAMERA 7 buttons.
The pressed CAMERA button lights in yellow, and the
camera assigned with the same camera number as the
CAMERA button becomes the target camera.
For serial connection, camera numbers up to number 7
can be assigned.
In a serial connection, groups are not used, hence the
group buttons do not light up.
About the color of camera buttons
The camera number button for the selected camera is lit
yellow.
When a camera is turned on or is in standby mode, the
camera number buttons for cameras that can be operated
are lit blue.
About the tally input lamp
indicators
When the GPI I/O connector of the unit is configured as
an input, you can connect the tally output of an external
device to the unit to display tally input lamps (ON AIR
TALLY mode), or switch the target camera in response
to the operation of the external device (NORMAL
TALLY mode).
1
Set CONFIG >GPI I/O >SETTING to INPUT in
the RM menu.
2
Set CONFIG >GPI I/O >TALLY MODE in the
RM menu.
When set to NORMAL, normal tally mode is
selected. The target camera of the unit is switched
in response to the tally output of the external
device, and the corresponding tally input lamp
lights up.
You can also display the tally lamp on the corresponding
camera.
For details, see “TALLY MODE” (page 52).
Note
If the tally input changes while NORMAL is selected,
the target camera will change as follows.
• When set to ON AIR, on-air tally mode is selected.
The tally output of the camera selected by the external
device is displayed by the corresponding tally input
lamp of the unit. Note that the target camera cannot be
switched in conjunction with the tally input, but must
be switched using the camera buttons on the unit.
The tally lamp on the corresponding camera can also
be set to light up in response to the tally input. For
details, see “CAMERA LINK” (page 52).
When the GPI I/O connector is used as a contact output
connector, the number of the target camera is sent to the
connected external device.
When CONFIG >GPI I/O >SETTING is set to
OUTPUT in the RM menu, the camera number of the
selected camera is output to the external device.
You can also display the tally lamp on the camera
selected on the unit. For details, see “CAMERA LINK”
(page 52).
