QUICK START GUIDE
HARRIER 3G-SDI
CAMERA INTERFACE BOARD
Introduction
This guide is designed to get you quickly up and running with the Harrier 3G-SDI Evaluation Kit
(AS-CIB-3GSDI-002-EVAL-B) and the Harrier 3G-SDI Camera Interface Board
(AS-CIB-3GSDI-002-A). The interface board can be purchased as a pre-assembled camera module
with Active Silicon's Harrier 10x AF-Zoom Camera (AS-CIB-3GSDI-002-10LHD-A) or Harrier 36x AF-
Zoom Camera (AS-CIB-3GSDI-002-36LGHD-A, shown in Figure 1).
This document should be read in conjunction with the Harrier 3G-SDI Camera Interface Board

- Page 6 On the Harrier Evaluation Board, J103 supports RS-232 and TTL communications, J203 supports RS-485 and TTL communications. The Harrier 3G-SDI Camera Interface Board is shipped by default with all DIP switches in the “OFF” position. In this state, the board is configured for RS-232 communications.
- Page 7 QUICK START GUIDE HARRIER 3G-SDI CAMERA INTERFACE BOARD Version 1.2.AS - September 2020 Notes: 1) “Default camera mode”: on power-up, the camera will start in the video format/mode that was set/being used when it was last powered down. The video mode can then be changed using a VISCA serial command).
- Page 8 The BNC connector on the Harrier Evaluation Board will supply the analog video output of the camera interface board. The Harrier 3G-SDI Camera Interface Board generates the analog signal by downscaling the camera digital output. To enable this, the camera must be set into 720p50/720p60 output mode.
