The RCP-730/731 Remote Control Panel is designed
for remote control of the BVP-500/700-series Color
Video Camera via the CCU-700A/700AP Camera
Control Unit. The panel is connected to the CCU-
700A/700AP Camera Control Unit (or the CNU-700
Camera Command Network Unit, which is connected
to the CCU-700A/700AP) by a special cable of up to
200 m (656 feet) in length and controls the camera
functions which are used most frequently in basic
applications from a distance.
The CCU-550/550P Camera Control Unit can also be
used in place of the CCU-700A/700AP.
The RCP-730 and RCP-731 are completely identical in
their functions except with respect to the iris and
master black adjustments.
For the iris and master black adjustments, the RCP-730
uses a joystick type control while the RCP-731 uses
rotary knobs.
The principal features of the RCP-730/731 are as
follows.
Optimal control parts arrangement for basic
camera operation
This remote control panel is provided with essential
control functions for basic operation of a BVP-500/
700-series camera.
The buttons, knobs, and other controls have been
arranged according to their functions and with
consideration to their frequency of use. Indicators and
buttons light or flash to indicate the status of the
system operation. Also, guard frames are provided to
protect against accidental use of those buttons vital to
camera operation. These features ensure easy and
error-free use of this remote control panel.
Controlling the automatic setup function
The RCP-730/731 has built-in microcomputers that
reliably perform automatic setup for the majority of the
control items. The various items can be automatically
adjusted independently or in combination.
Controlling the scene file function
Camera adjustment and control data such as paint data
for a particular scene can be stored in the video camera
in the form of a scene file. The stored data can easily
be retrieved at any time to automatically adjust the
camera to the shooting conditions for that particular
scene. This panel enables up to five scene files to be
created and handled.

Controlling the ECS/shutter function of the
camera
The ECS (Extended Clear Scan) and electronic shutter
functions of the camera can be turned on/off from this
panel. The ECS frequency and shutter speed are also
selected using the buttons on the panel.
Signal transmission via a digital line
Between this remote control panel and the camera
control unit, signals are digitally transmitted via a
single connection cable (CCA-5), ensuring a reliable
signal.
Parallel operation with another control panel
Video cameras can be concurrently controlled from
this panel and another controller, such as the MSU-700
Master Setup Unit.
Four units mountable on a 19-inch rack
Up to four units of this control panel can be mounted
in a line on a 19-inch EIA standard rack.
