Sony HDC1700 Operation Manual page 11

c CRANE connector (12-pin)
For external interface, such as viewfinder (and external data
with HDC1700).
d USB connector (for connecting a USB drive)
Connect a USB drive to save or load the settings data file.
For details, see "Using a USB Drive" (page 62).
e TRACKER connector (10-pin)
For external interface, such as intercom and tally.
f RET CTRL (return control) connector (6-pin)
For connection to a CAC-6 Return Video Selector.
g DC IN (DC power supply input) connector (XLR 4-pin)
Used for connection to the AC-DN10 AC Adaptor to supply
power to the camera.
h INTERCOM1 and 2 (intercom 1 and 2) connectors (XLR
5-pin)
Used for input and output of intercom audio signals if an XLR
5-pin headset is connected.
The INTERCOM 1 connector can be used for communication
over the engineer line even when the power is off, as long as
the power LED is lit in red.
i REMOTE connector (8-pin)
For connection to an RCP-1000/1500-series Remote Control
Panel, or MSU-1000/1500 Master Setup Unit.
Note
When the camera is connected to a CCU, do not connect any
remote control device, such as RCP and MSU, to this
connector.
j PROMPTER/GENLOCK (prompter 1 signal output/
external gen-lock signal input) connector (BNC-type)
The PROMPTER function is available only when a camera
control unit is connected.
The GENLOCK IN function and RET IN function are available
when a camera control unit is not connected.
GENLOCK IN: For input of an external gen-lock signal (VBS
or 3-level sync) during stand-alone operation.
RET IN: For input of the return video signal during stand-alone
operation.
The connector accepts analog HD signals only. SDI
signals are not acceptable. Supply a signal of 1080i
(720P is not acceptable).
The signal supplied to this connector cannot be fed as
RET OUT from the TEST OUT or SDI OUT connector.
This is displayed in the viewfinder regardless of which
RET is selected. CHARACTER will not be overlapped for
the displayed RET 3 signal.
PROMPTER: For output of the prompter 1 signal (valid only
when a camera control unit is connected). When a
camera control unit having two prompter inputs is
connected, the signal of input 1 is output from this
connector.
k TEST OUT connector (BNC-type)
To output the analog signal.
This also supplies the VBS signal, an HD signal nearly equal
to the signal output from the VF connector, an HD-SYNC
signal, or an SD-SYNC signal depending on which of these
you have selected on the menu.
For details on the output signals, see "Setting the Camera
Outputs" (page 23).
l SDI-MONI (serial digital interface) connector (BNC-
type)
For HD-SDI or SD-SDI signal output.
For details on the output signals, see "Setting the Camera
Outputs" (page 23).
