KONA 3 System Using Breakout Cable
Typical System
A figure on the following page shows typical system interconnections for a system with digital
A/V sources. Your system may differ depending on VTRs, audio monitoring, and video
monitoring.
1. If desired, connect your house reference sync to the KONA 3 Ref Loop connector (BNC).
On the breakout cable this is a terminated reference input. The second KONA 3 Ref Loop
connector on the optional Breakout Box can be connected to your VTR. If you do not
loop through the reference, the second connector should be terminated with a 75 ohm
terminator.
2. Connect a Video Monitor to the KONA 3 Component Analog Video Out BNC connectors
(preferred), or instead connect to a composite monitor. (If you have an SDI or HD-SDI
enabled monitor, you may also connect one of the Kona SDI outputs to a monitor as
well.)
3. Connect the 9-pin DB9 machine control cable on the supplied breakout cable to your
VTR's RS422 control port or connect a 9 pin DB9 cable between the breakout box and the
VTR's RS422 serial port.
