The optional remote control has the same two video signals,
plus a luminance and a chrominance output. When the
remote is used, S-video or YUV video can also be taken
from the connectors thereon.
The Color Six should be connected to external equipment via
coaxial cables, and terminated in 75 ohms at the destination.
Equipment may be daisy-chained as long as the last (and
only the last) equipment in the chain is terminated.
All of the video outputs are 1 volt peak-to-peak when
terminated in 75 ohms.

SMPTE Time Code Input

If provided by the film camera, the Color Six will add
SMPTE time code and user bits at lines 16 and 18 of the
output video. It can also be displayed on the built-in LCD
monitor and the "B" video output. The time code signal must
be provided to the Color Six as a standard 0 to +5 volt
signal.

Shutter Pulse Input

In order to provide flicker-free operation, the Color Six
requires that the shutter pulse from the camera be provided at
pin 3 of either of the 3-pin Fischer connectors. Cables for
this purpose are available from CEI. When the Color Six
speed is set to AUTO, the camera defaults to 30 fps in the
absence of a shutter pulse, e.g., when the camera is stopped.
The shutter pulse must be a positive-going 0 to +5 volt
signal.
