Camera Adaptor Power Supply

The camera adaptor automatically operates on power
supplied to the VTR/CCU/CMA connector from the
portable VTR, CCU-M7/M7P Camera Control Unit,
CMA-8A/8ACE AC Adaptor or other connected
device.
Note
Before use, check that the device connected to the
VTR/CCU/CMA connector is able to provide the
power required by the camera.
If it is not able to provide the necessary power, or
when it is necessary to prolong the operating time, use
the camera with a separate power supply.
