Camera Interface Signal Paths
e FS-900 Triple Studio Camera Interface System is
a camera video, audio, ethernet and data multiplexing system that installs between three separate JVC
ProHD GY-HM890U video cameras and their power
sources in addition, each camera connects via a single
ber optic cable to a common Base Station in a truck,
studio control room, or other video production facility. All of the video, audio and data is sent bi-directionally between the Base Station and each camera
over three separate single ber cables, one between
each camera and the common Base Station.
e Camera Head Unit is attached directly to the
camera. e Camera Head unit is designed to allow
the majority of the signals that connect between the
Camera and itself to ow thru a 68 pin connector
internal to the Camera and the Camera Head unit.
e FS-900 Triple Studio Camera Interface System
consists of the two main components:
1. e FS-900 Base Station
2. e FS-900 Camera Head
Model numbers of available options:
FS-900BS1S - Base Station with SMPTE connectors
FS-900BS1N- Base Station with Neutrik connectors

e Viewnder button on the Camera Unit’s control
panel is used to select the video source that is output
from the Viewnder BNC Connector. Pressing this
button will change between the Camera’s video
output and the Return 1 video being sent by the base
station. LED’s on the control panel indicate which
source is currently switched to the Viewnder output.
An external switch connected to the DB-15 GPIO
connector on the Camera Unit may also be used to
control the Viewnder output, please refer to the
pinout guide for pinout information. e Viewnder
select pin on the GPIO connector is typically used
with a momentary type pushbutton switch. When
this pin is connected to Ground, the Viewnder BNC
will output Return 1 video. When this pin is le open
or unconnected, the Viewnder BNC will output the
Camera’s video signal.
e Viewnder output can also be selected using the
RET button on the Lens. Note that this requires
GY-HM890U camera rmware A518-00FB, or later,
and this option is enabled in the Camera’s menu
under: Camera Function; User Switch Set, Return

e top portion of the Camera Unit’s control panel
is used to control intercom operation of the camera
operator’s headset. ese controls consist of: a pushto-talk (PTT) switch, volume control buttons, and
indicator LEDs. ere are additional controls located next to the headset connector for Mic Gain and
Sidetone adjustment. Mic Gain and Sidetone level are
adjusted using a small screwdriver.
e intercom headset connector can be used with
industry standard dual-mu or single-mu headsets.
Intercom Belt Packs cannot be plugged into the Camera Unit. When using dual-mu headsets, identical
audio will be present in both ears.
e volume controls allow for a mix of both intercom
channels and program audio all to be listened to in
the headset simultaneously. e LED above each
channel’s set of volume control buttons will illuminate whenever audio is present on that channel.
When adjusting the volume, these LED’s will rapidly
blink 3 times whenever the min or max volume setting has been reached.
e intercom Talkback switch, or PTT switch, provides
Momentary/Latching operation of the headset microphone to allow the operator to talk on a particular
intercom channel, or on both channels simultaneously.
For Momentary Mode, press and hold the PTT switch
up or down towards the intercom channel you wish
to speak on and then speak into the microphone.
e TALK and the selected intercom channel LED’s
will blink and the mic will remain open while the PTT
switch is held. Release the PTT switch when nished
talking. e mic will close and the TALK and channel
LED’s will turn o.
Latching Mode can be used for longer-term, handsfree operation. To talk on channel 1, quickly toggle
the PTT switch upwards towards CH1 and release.
e mic will latch open and the TALK and CH1 LED’s
will blink continuously. When nished talking, quick-
ly toggle the PTT switch upwards again and release.
e mic will then close and the TALK and CH1 LED’s
will turn o.
To talk on channel 2, quickly toggle the PTT switch
downwards towards CH2 and release. e mic will
latch open and the TALK and CH2 LED’s will blink
continuously. When nished talking, quickly toggle
the PTT switch downwards again and release. e mic
will close and the TALK and CH2 LED’s will turn o.
To talk on both channels 1 and 2 simultaneously, rst
quickly toggle the PTT switch upwards towards CH1
and release. e mic will latch open and the TALK
and CH1 LED’s will blink continuously. Next, quickly
toggle the PTT switch downwards towards CH2 and
release. e mic will stay open and now the TALK,
CH1 and CH2 LED’s will all blink continuously. When
nished talking, quickly toggle the PTT switch upwards and release to disengage CH1 (the CH1 LED will
turn o) then quickly toggle the PTT switch downwards and release to disengage CH2 (the CH2 LED
will turn o). e mic will close and the TALK, CH1
and CH2 LED’s will all turn o.
An external switch connected to the DB-15 GPIO
connector on the Camera Unit may also be used to
control Intercom Talkback operation, please refer to
the pinout guide for pinout information. Two mic
trigger GPI pins are provided, one for CH1 and one for
CH2. A single SPDT momentary type switch or 2 SPST
switches may be used.
Intercom Talkback operation can also be controlled
using the REC button on the Camera’s Lens. Note
that this requires GY-HM890U camera rmware
A518-00FB, or later, and this option can be enabled
in the Camera’s menu under: Camera Function à Lens
REC à (ICOM2, ICOM1, REC). Momentary and Latching
operation is supported from the REC button only on
the intercom channel that is selected in the menu.
Both channels cannot be activated simultaneously
from the REC button.
