Overview
Features
The CNA-1 is a network device for
expansion of the Sony camera network
system.
You can build a flexible camera network
system by using the Master device
function, CCA-LAN converting function,
or transport converting function. The
remote control function for the HD
Cutout function of the BPU (Baseband
Processor Unit) allows you to control
the HD Cutout frame by connecting the
USB controller to the CNA-1.
Also, the CNA-1 supports the Gateway
function. This extension allows you to
expand the camera network system by
adding a control panel or camera that
conforms to the simple protocol
provided from the CNA-1 to the camera
network system.
Transport converting
Using the two CNA-1s converts the
network protocol between a camera
and control panel, and allows you to
operate in a network environment with
many delays or operate using the
RS232/422 connection.
HD Cutout control function
You can control the HD Cutout frame of
the BPU with the USB controller that is
connected to the CNA-1 by connecting
the CNA-1 to the BPU via LAN.
Gateway function
The CNA-1 can convert the protocol of
the camera network system to a simpler
protocol.
This protocol allows you to develop
various applications easily and add
them to the camera network system.
Master device function
By working the CNA-1 as the master
device of the camera network system,
you can operate the MCS (multicamera system) without using the MSU.
CCA to LAN converting
If you connect the CNA-1 to the camera
network system via a LAN, and connect
the CCU or RCP device to the CNA-1
with the CCA cable, you can add the
CCU or RCP device easily to the
camera network system without
including them on the LAN.

Indicators
a DEVICE NO. indicator
Indicates the CNA-1’s device
number.

b ALARM indicator
Indicates the CNA-1’s operating
status.
Flashing: The CNA-1 is updating
the firmware, or cannot boot
properly.
Off: The CNA-1 is working
normally.
Note
If the ALARM indicator flashes
even though the CNA-1 is not
updating, immediately stop using
the CNA-1, and consult your Sony
Service Center.
c POWER indicator
Indicates the CNA-1’s power
status.
On: Power is being supplied.
Off: Power is not being supplied.
d MASTER indicator
Indicates the master mode status
of the CNA-1.
On: The CNA-1 is working in the
