Selecting a Camera

Assign camera numbers to the cameras, and
then select a camera number on the camera
selection block when you want to control the
corresponding camera.
The number of camera numbers that can be
assigned to cameras to control varies depending
on the use of LAN connection or serial
connection. The method of selecting the camera
number also is different.
Selecting a camera when using
LAN connection
For LAN connection, ten camera numbers are
assignable in camera groups 1 to 10, supporting
assignment of up to 100 cameras.
1
Select the camera group to which the
target camera belongs using the GROUP
LEFT button and GROUP RIGHT button.
You can select from group 1 to 10.
The number of the selected group is
displayed in the group number display.
After switching the group number, the
CAMERA 1 button is selected in the group.
2
Press the number of the CAMERA button to
select.
The selected button lights in yellow.
Selecting a camera when using
serial connection
You can select a camera number using the
CAMERA 1 to CAMERA 7 buttons.
The pressed CAMERA button lights in yellow, and
the camera assigned with the same camera
number as the CAMERA button becomes the
target camera.
For serial connection, camera numbers up to
number 7 can be assigned.
In a serial connection, groups are not used,
hence the group buttons do not light up.

About the color of camera buttons

The camera number button for the selected
camera is lit yellow.
When a camera is turned on or is in standby
mode, the camera number buttons for cameras
that can be operated are lit blue.

the external device (NORMAL TALLY mode).

corresponding camera.
