Setting the switch to the " " position turns the power on, and setting it to " " turns it off. When a remote control panel is connected and the power supply is turned off with the CAM PW button on the remote control panel, this switch alone cannot turn on the video camera power. 4 INTERCOM (intercom volume adjustment) control Adjusts the intercom input level. The program audio mix volume is adjusted using the internal AT board. For further information on setting the internal switches, contact a Sony service or sales representative. 9(E) Locations and Functions of Parts 8 INTERCOM connector (XLR 5-pin) Connects to a headset. To use a headset with a plug other than an XLR 5-pin plug, consult a Sony service or sales representative. Rear Panel 1 CAMERA connector HD signal input/output block (page 12(E)) SD signal input/output block (page 13(E)) 8 Expansion slot 2 AC IN connector 3 Remote control connectors 4 CHARACTER OUTPUT connector 5 DIGITAL AUDIO connector 6 MIC OUTPUT connectors 7 INTERCOM/TALLY/PGM connector 1 CAMERA connector (optical fiber connector) Used to connect a video camera, using an optical fiber cable such as the FC2-PD50/PD250. All video camera signals, including power supply, control, video, and audio, are sent and received over one optical fiber cable. Note 3 Remote control connectors 1 RCP/CNU REMOTE connector 2 WF REMOTE connector 3 TRUNK LINE connector REMOTE WF RCP/CNU MIC TRUNK LINE Dust on the connection surface of the optical fiber cable may result in transmission errors. When not connected, always cover the end with the supplied cap. 2 AC IN (AC power supply input) connector Use the supplied power cord to connect to an AC power supply. The power cord may be secured to the HDCU-900 body using the supplied plug holder. I/O PORT 4 MIC REMOTE connector 5 I/O PORT connector 1 RCP/CNU REMOTE connector (8-pin) Used to connect to an MSU-700A/750 Master Setup Unit, CNU-500/700 Camera Command Network Unit, or RCP-700 series Remote Control Panel via a CCA-5 Connection Cable. Control signals are sent and received via this connector. When using an RCP-700 series unit, power is also supplied. 10(E) 2 WF MODE REMOTE (waveform monitor remote) connector (D-sub 15-pin) Used to attach to the appropriate connector on a waveform monitor when operating the waveform monitor display using an MSU-700A/750 Master Setup Unit or RCP-700 series Remote Control Panel. Either a recall-type monitor, or the 1730HD/1735HD Waveform Monitor, may be connected. When using a recall-type monitor, preset a display mode on the waveform monitor, and then recall the mode externally. Switches on the AT board are used to select either recall type or 1730HD/1735HD type operation. For information on setting the switches on the AT board, contact a Sony service or sales representative. 4 CHARACTER OUTPUT connector (BNC type) Used to output the results of the HDCU-900 diagnostic self-test in SD black and white analog video format. 5 DIGITAL AUDIO connector (BNC type) Used to output a digital audio signal input to the camera. 6 MIC OUTPUT (microphone output) connectors (XLR 3-pin) Used for output of the microphone input to the video camera. 7 INTERCOM/TALLY/PGM (program audio) connector (D-sub 25-pin) Used for input and output of intercom, tally, and program audio signals. Connect to the intercom/tally/ program audio connector of the intercom system. 8 Expansion slot For installation of the optional HKCU-901 SD Analog Intercface Unit, HKCU-902 HD Analog Interface Unit, HKCU-903 Frame Rate Converter Unit, or HKCU-904 Line Converter Unit. For information on installation, contact a Sony service or sales representative. 3 TRUNK LINE connector (D-sub 9-pin, RS232C) Used to connect the HDCU-900 to the TRACKER connector on an HDC-900 HD Color Video Camera via an RS-232C interface. Used mainly for communication with equipment on the camera side. The RXD, TXD, RTS, and CTS signals can be transferred at up to 19. 2 kbps using this connector. This connector may also be used as an RS-232C interface connector for CCU system expansion. For information on the setting, contact a Sony service or sales representative. 4 MIC REMOTE (microphone remote) connector (D-sub 15-pin) Using this connector, the video camera's microphone input level may be set by external equipment such as an audio mixer, in five steps (­60, ­50, ­40, ­30, and ­20 dB). [. . . ] In this case, the signal supplied to the IN signal is ouput from the OUT connector as-is. When this unit is used as the master unit, these connectors can be used as the frame sync pulse output connectors for pull down. Switching is made using the switches on the internal FC board. For information on the operations of switches on the FC board, contact a Sony service or sales representative. 2 SYNC OUT (HD/SD sync signal output) connectors (BNC type) The left connector outputs a sync signal of the same format as that of the input/output block in the above slot. The right connector outputs the HD tri-level sync signal of the same format as that of the SERIAL OUTPUT 1 to 3 connectors. 4 SERIAL OUTPUT 1 to 3 and MONI (monitor) connectors (BNC type) The 1 to 3 connectors output the signal from the camera as three HD-SDI signals.
