Overview
The HDFA-200 is an intelligent transmission interface unit with
high bit-rate transmission technology. The unit enables 3D
multicamera system operation if you connect two cameras (left
and right, hereafter referred to as L/R) such as HDC-P1 HD
Multi Purpose Cameras to a Camera Control Unit via this unit,
using a single optical fiber cable. This also enables
transmission of RGB 4:4:4 signals if you connect an F35
Digital Cinematography Camera and creates a multicamera
system with 35-mm imagers.
Features
Improving operation efficiency by connecting a
single fiber cable
High bit-rate digital optical transmission technology enables
you to send signals from two cameras to a CCU, using a single
optical fiber cable, and also to supply power and genlock
signals to the two cameras.
Power of up to 13 A (maximum 14 V) can be supplied from this
unit in total, but available power is limited depending on the
devices to be connected or the length of an optical fiber cable.
For details, see "Notes on Power Supplied from This Unit"
(page 14).
3D multicamera operation
The unit is equipped with 2-channel audio input, intercom, and
trunk data (general-purpose control signal via a CCU and
HDFA-200) transmission functions that enable system
operation of a 3D multicamera system equivalent to that of an
existing 2D camera system.
Improving operation with a single remote control
panel
The L/R cameras can simultaneously be controlled with a
remote control panel connected to a CCU. It is also possible to
perform offset control of the left and right cameras, which
allows 3D system camera operation with high flexibility.
3D monitoring with a viewfinder
On the screen of a viewfinder connected to the VF connector
on this unit, picture from the left or a right camera only, or
pictures from both the L/R cameras can be monitored. For L/R
camera pictures, split, mix, or Y-difference display function
required for rig adjustment for camera setup can be switched.
Linking with an MPE-200 with lens meta data
If a lens supporting serial data transmission is used, the focal
length of the lens, zoom position, and iris data are overlaid on
an HD-SDI signal output from the CCU as meta data, which
supports linking operation with an MPE-200 Multi Image
Processor.
Remote operation of a 3D rig
line
General-purpose control signals of up to 150 kbaud can be
transmitted as trunk data. The RS-232C or RS-422 signals
