Overview

By connecting this unit to the multi-format camera (model AK-HC931P), multi-format images can be input and output. (Some of the functions are available as options.)

The unit is connected to the multi-format camera, and it is connected to the remote operation panel (ROP) and master setup unit (MSU) using dedicated multi-purpose cables (available as optional accessories).

When the designated multi-purpose cables are used, the distance between from the CCU to the ROP and MSU can be extended up to 50 meters.

Accessories

Rack-mounting adapters (k2) Mounting screws (M4k8 mm) (k6) BNC termination resistor (k1) Communication connector (k1) Power cord (k1)

Operating precautions

O Handle the unit carefully.

Dropping the unit or subjecting it to strong impact may cause malfunctioning and/or accidents.

O Operate the unit within a temperature range of 32oF to 104oF (0oC to i40oC).

Operation in locations below 32oF or above 104oF may adversely affect the internal parts.

O Be absolutely sure to turn off the power before connecting or disconnecting the

cables.

O Do not use the unit outdoors. O Install the unit at a distance of at least 3.3 ft (1 meter) from the monitor. O Maintenance

Disconnect the power plug, and wipe the unit with a dry cloth. To remove stubborn dirt, soak a cloth in diluted kitchen detergent and wring it out well, and then wipe the unit gently.

Avoid using benzine, paint thinners or other volatile substances.

If a chemically treated cloth is to be used, read the precautions for its use carefully.

Caution

Parts and their functions

1 CCU power switch [MAIN]

This is the power switch of the camera control unit (CCU). The CCU, ROP and other units will not operate unless this switch is set to ON. Up: ON Down: OFF

2 Camera power switch [HEAD POWER]

This switch supplies power to the camera. However, if the ROP has been connected, power is supplied to the camera only when this switch and the camera power switch on the TOP are both set to ON. Up: ON Down: OFF

3 CCU power ON LED

Lighted: The CCU power is ON. Off: The CCU power is OFF.

4 Camera power ON LED

Lighted: This indicates that power is being supplied from

the CCU to the camera.

Off: This indicates that power is not being supplied

from the CCU to the camera. Even if the camera power switch is ON, this LED remains off if no power is supplied to the camera. This is due to one of the following reasons: 1 the supply of power to the camera has been turned off by the ROP, 2 one of the optical fiber cables has been disconnected or 3 something is wrong with the camera, and the power supply was turned off.

5 CCU power fuse

This is the CCU main power fuse.

6 Camera head power fuse

This is the camera head power supply fuse.

7 Alarm LED [ALARM]

Lighted: This LED indicates that the CCU’s fan has

stopped and that something is wrong with the

power supply. Off: Normal If the LED remains lighted, turn off the main power and have the unit repaired.

8 Camera cable open alarm LED [CABLE / OPEN]

Lighted: The cable between the CCU and camera has

been disconnected.

Off: Normal

9 Camera cable short-circuit alarm LED

[CABLE / SHORT]

Lighted: The cable between the CCU and the camera has

short-circuited.

Off: Normal

: TALLY indicator/CALL switch [TALLY/CALL]

This indicator lights when the R/G tally signal is input. It is also a CALL switch for calling the camera, ROP and MSU.

; INCOM volume control [LEVEL]

This is used to adjust the standby INCOM volume.

< INCOM PGM selector switch

This is used to select the PGM input signals which are to be mixed with the standby INCOM.

= INCOM PGM level control [PGM]

This is used to select the level of the PGM signals which are to be mixed with the standby INCOM.

> INCOM selector switch

This is used to select the call party of the standby INCOM. PRIVATE: For making private calls to the camera. COMM: For connecting the standby INCOM with the

system INCOM.

? INCOM MIC selector switch [MIC]

ON: The INCOM microphone is set to ON. OFF: The INCOM microphone is set to OFF. PTTN: The INCOM microphone is set to ON only while

the INCOM MIC selector switch is held down.

@ Standby INCOM jack

This is connected to INCOM 1 line, and it enables calls to be made to the camera’s INCOM 1 line. Even when the camera power is OFF, calls can still be made to the camera’s INCOM 1 line.
