This is a remote control unit to program the HD studio system together with the HD camera recorder (GY-HD250/GY-HD251) and studio adapter (KA-HD250U).

Maximum 100m of HD analog component signals

can be transferred

You can use the optional camera cable VC-P110 series to extend the distance between the camera and the remote control unit up to 100m and transfer the HD analog component signals. There is no need to prepare a separate power source as the power to the studio adapter will be supplied by RMHP250.

Equipped with HD/SD SDI connector

The unit can outputs (3 outputs) transferred signals as SDI signals via camera cables. It can be connected to SDI switcher, monitor or other VTR equipment.(RM-HP250AU) The unit can distribute and output (2 outputs) the input SDI signals from the SDI input connector. It can be connected to SDI switcher, monitor or other VTR equipment.(RMHP250DE)

The camera can be remotely controlled.

The camera can be remotely controlled by serial communication. You can also control the camera by connecting the optional remote control panel RM-LP25U.

External synchronization of HD studio system is

possible

External synchronization of SD reference sync signal or (VBS or BB), HD tri-level reference sync signal for HD studio system is possible. H phase and SC phase (SD signal) can be adjusted on the front panel.

Precautions for Proper Use

Introduction

 To prolong the service life of the RM-HP250, do not use it or

store it in the following places.

 A place subject to extremely high or low temperatures.  A place subject to excessive vibration.  A place subject to excessive dust.  A place subject to high humidity.  A place near to a strong source of noise.

 Do not apply strong vibrations or impact to the RM-HP250

during installation or transportation.

 If the supply voltage is too high or low, the service life of the

RM-HP250 may be reduced or it may not be able to provide an optimum performance.

 Do not connect or disconnect the camera cable connector

while the RM-HP250 is ON.

 After turning the RM-HP250 OFF, wait at least 10 seconds

before turning it ON again.

 Noise may interfere with the video when the RM-HP250 is

installed near a source of strong magnetism, such as a radio or TV transmitting antenna, power transformer or motor.

 While the values set by using the menus are retained in the

memory even after the unit is turned off, those set using the front panel switches and controls are retained for about 10 days only and then the factory-set defaults are reset.

 RM-HP250 can be connected to the following equipment:

● GY-HD250/GY-HD251 (HD camera recorder)

● KA-HD250U (studio adapter)

● VF-P400 (view finder with KA-HD250U)

● RM-LP25U (remote control panel)

● DT109 Beyerdyramic (headset)

Functions not available on the camera cannot be controlled from this unit.

: “Operable Camera Features” on page 29

REF.

 If the RM-HP250 is rack-mounted, be sure to insert ventilated

panels above and below it in order to improve ventilation, Do not stack two RM-HP250 units or place any object on top of a RM-HP250 unit. In addition, make sure to keep surrounding temperature of this unit below 40°C during use.

 To save power consumption, turn the RM-HP250 OFF when

it is not in use.

 As the LCD contrast is reduced at low temperatures, it should

be re-adjusted before use in such conditions.

: Item “6A: CONTRAST” on page 26.

REF.

 When a transceiver or cellular phone is used near to a RM-

HP250 or to a camera connected to it, noise may interfere with the video. However, this is not a malfunction.

 When an intercom is used, radio interference may occa-

sionally affect any system that is connected to the RMHP250. In such a case the INTERCOM G (GND) terminal provided to the RM-HP250 should be grounded.

 In a multiple camera setup, if the adjustments made to the

different cameras deviate significantly, the cameras may not be able to function satisfactorily. Be sure to adjust the cameras accordingly before using them with the RM-HP250.

 Use camera cables with standard lengths, as specified.

Otherwise, the camera cable compensation may not be able to work efficiently.
