: Inputs the audio from the INPUT1 connector
4 into CH-2.
INPUT2
: Inputs the audio from the INPUT2 connector
4 into CH-2.
MEMO
The audio from the INPUT1 connector is also input into
CH-1 regardless of the setting.
3[AUDIO INPUT] Audio input signal selector switch
This switch is used to select the input sound signal from
INPUT1 or INPUT2 connector.
LINE
: Set to this position when connected to audio
equipment, etc. The reference input level is
+4 dBs.

requiring +48 V power supply (phantom
microphone, etc.) is connected.
CAUTION
When connecting a component that does not require +48 V
power supply, make sure that the switch is not set to
MIC+48V before the component is connected.
MEMO
You can select the normal input level for MIC and MIC+48V
in the INPUT1, 2 MIC REF. item on the AUDIO/MIC[1/2]

9[AUDIO OUTPUT CH-1/CH-2] Audio output connector
(RCA)
Output connector for audio signals.
• Outputs the input audio signal in the Camera mode.
• Outputs the playback audio signal in the VTR mode.
• When a HDV/DV signal (IEEE1394) is input, the EE
sound of the input audio signal is output in the VTR
mode.
MEMO
Alarm sound is not output.
0[IEEE1394] IEEE1394 connector (6-pin)
Using an IEEE1394 cable (optional), a digital video com-
ponent with IEEE1394 connector can be connected here.
X See "Connecting the IEEE1394 Cable" on page 64.
X See "HDV/DV Dubbing" on page 68.
CAUTION
When connecting the IEEE1394 cable, confirm that the
connector is facing the right direction before inserting.
X See page 64.
MEMO
Put the covers on the connectors when you are not using
them.

a[STUDIO] Studio terminal (Round 10-pin)
Connect the studio cable from the KA-HD250 Studio Kit
(sold separately). Connect the KA-HD250 to use this
device as a studio camera.
For details, refer to the KA-HD250 INSTRUCTION MAN-
UAL.
b[DC INPUT] DC input terminal (XLR 4-pin)
This is the 12V DC power input terminal. Connect to the
AC adapter.
When a battery is installed and a cable is connected to this
terminal, power supply from the battery stops and power is
supplied by this terminal.
c[GENLOCK/AUX IN] GENLOCK/AUX IN switch
Set according to the signal input in the [GENLOCK/AUX
IN] terminal.
GENLOCK : Set to this when inputting external synchroni-
zation signals.
AUX IN
: Set to this when inputting composite video
signals from an external device.
MEMO
If no signals are input to the [AUX IN] terminal and this
switch is set to AUX IN, the monitor turns black and video is
not output from any terminal.
