This unit allows you to operate the functions of the camera up to 300m away with the MCU-200S
unit.

The AD-1S adaptor connects the MCU-200S via RJ-45 cabling to the chosen Sony camera. This
adaptor changes the Ethernet connection to a Sony CAM/BS cable run with a multi-pin connector.

NOTE: Before using the MCU-200S to control the connected cameras, you have to enable the
camera’s remote control function. For instructions on how you can enable the remote control
function, please see the corresponding user manual.

NOTE: Be very careful with the Sony CAM/BS cable connector which plugs into the remote socket
of the Sony camera. This connector only slides into the camera’s remote socket when the notches
and pins are matched up correctly. Do not twist or force this connection as damage to the camera

or connector pins may happen.

NOTE: With the AD-1S connected, the menu and other functions of the Sony camera may be

limited to remote control only. To regain manual control of the menu functions on the camera first
disconnect the AD-1S.

The AD-1S also features a BNC type Composite (CV) output which can be taken to an SD monitor
on or near the camera. This Composite output can be used for confidence and composition
monitoring and in some cases to view the camera’s own LCD/OSD menus too. Please note this

feature is camera model and firmware dependant.

Each AD-1S adaptor has a built in Velcro strap so that the unit can be quickly mounted in a
convenient location on or near the camera.

A micro USB 2.0 port is provided for transfer of firmware updates to the unit. See Firmware
