Connecting Cameras to Component Systems

2 - 14
All VSX systems allow you to connect a second camera or other video source.
The component systems require that you connect at least one camera so that
your site can send video.
You can connect a document camera to show detailed close-up views of
printed documents or other small items. The system provides one composite
video input.
Refer to the system setup sheet for information about connecting a document
camera.
VSX 7000 and VSX 7000s systems provide an S-Video input for a second
camera. You can connect a camera to the VCR video input on the VSX 5000 or
VSX 6000 system. On the VSX 6000 system, the video input is for a composite
video signal.
VSX 5000 and VSX 6000 systems do not provide pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) control
for a second camera.
You can use the RS-232 serial port on the VSX 7000 or VSX 7000s system for
camera control. Refer to your system's setup sheet for connection details.
The set-top systems can be used with these PTZ cameras:
• Polycom PowerCam
• Sony EVI-D30 (for NTSC systems) or Sony EVI-D31 (for PAL systems)
• Sony EVI-D100 (for NTSC systems) or Sony EVI-D100P (for PAL systems)
• ELMO PTC-100S
• ELMO PTC-110R
• ELMO PTC-150S
If you have a component system, you need to connect a camera to the system
so that people at other sites can see your site. Refer to your system's setup
sheet for connection details.
The component systems provide S-video connections for two cameras. The
VSX 8000 system provides the S-video signal to the main camera through BNC
connectors.
