Connection  
<Notes>  
1
While the power supply of the camera  
recorder is turned off, connect the RCU 10-  
pin connector of the camera recorder to the  
unit with the connection cable.  
If settings are made from the camera menu,  
set the frequency to the frame frequency of  
the camera recorder and connect an NTSC  
or PAL monitor.  
z The frame frequency of the camera recorder  
must be switched before connecting the unit to  
the camera recorder.  
At VIDEO output, NTSC signals are output for  
60 Hz operation, while PAL signals are output  
for 50 Hz operation.  
z The settings for FUNC on the menu determine  
whether the camera recorder’s settings, which  
are adjusted when the unit is connected, are  
returned to the settings before connecting the  
unit or to the state after adjustment, when the  
unit is disconnected from the camera recorder.  
z Do not forcefully pull the connected cable.  
When the camera recorder is used while it is  
being moved, the cable must be fixed to the  
tripod or the handle of the camera recorder so  
that no force is applied directly to the  
connector.

Connection cable  
A 10 m connection cable is attached to the unit. To extend the cable, use the optional dedicated cable.  
If several 10 m cables are connected in tandem, the power supply may be unstable due to voltage  
drops etc.  
In an emergency, apply a higher voltage within a range from 11 V to 17 V for the power supply of DC 12  
V to the camera recorder. If the input voltage to the unit is 8 V or less, operation becomes unstable.  
Refer to the following. A twisted-pair cable must be used for the control line of the 10-pin cable.  
Attenuation of the coaxial cable must be set to around –6 dB at maximum in 10 MHz.
