Overview
Audio input/outputs
• Microphone (analog) output, 2-system (XLR-3-pin)
• Intercom input/output, 2-system (D-sub 25-pin)
• PGM (program audio) input, 2-system (D-sub 25-pin)
• The HSCU300RF Camera Control Unit connects to a Sony
HSC300RF or HSC100RF HD color camera via an optical
fiber cable. It performs signal processing, provides an
interface for external equipment, and supplies power to the
camera.
• The HSCU300R Camera Control Unit connects to a Sony
HSC300R or HSC100R HD color camera via a triaxial cable.
It performs signal processing, provides an interface for
external equipment, and supplies power to the camera.
The CCU features a down converter which converts HD

signals
return video up converter which converts SD signals to HD
signals.
1) HD (High Definition) signal: Name for 1125/750-line HDTV signals
2) SD (Standard Definition) signal: Name for NTSC/PAL, 525/625
The CCU can be combined with an RCP-1000-series Remote
Control Panel (optional) to form a camera control system. The
CCU can also be combined with an MSU-1000/1500 Master
Setup Unit (optional), by installing the HZCU-MC3 multicamera control system software, to form a multi-camera
application system controlling multiple cameras.
In addition, an HKCU-FP2 CCU Control Panel (optional) can
be mounted on the front panel to form a simple remote control
system.
from a camera to SD signals2), and a simplified
component, and 525/625 composite signals
Features
Multi-system input/output interface
The CCU is equipped with the following input and output signal
connectors as standard equipment.
Video outputs
• SDI (main), 2-system (HD/SD selectable, embedded digital
audio)
• SDI (monitor), 2-system (HD/SD selectable, embedded
digital audio, superimposed character and marker display)
• Analog composite (VBS 2-system, PIX 1-system,
SYNC/WF 1-system)
• Analog component, 1-system (HD Y/Pb/Pr, HD R/G/B, SD
Y/R-Y/B-Y, SD R/G/B 4-format selectable)
• SYNC/WF 1-system (HD/SD selectable)
Other input/outputs
• Tally (R/G) (D-sub 25-pin)
• Microphone remote (D-sub 25-pin)
• WF (waveform monitor) remote output (D-sub 25-pin)
• WF (waveform monitor) mode output (D-sub 25-pin)
• Trunk (D-sub 25-pin)
• REMOTE (8-pin)
• LAN (RJ-45, 8-pin)
Note
The WF remote output, WF mode output, trunk, and microphone
remote share a common 25-pin connector.
External sync signals
The CCU can be locked to an external sync signal. Either an
HD tri-level sync signal or an SD sync (black burst) signal can
be used as the sync signal.
Optical digital transmission (HSCU300RF)
HD video signals can be transmitted up to 2 km (1 1/4 miles)
between a camera and the CCU over an optical fiber cable.
Digital Triax Transmission (HSCU300R)
The CCU and camera are connected using the industrystandard double-shielded triaxial camera cable (commonly
referred to as triax). The camera and CCU are equipped with
the latest Sony-developed digital transmission technology
which can transmit high-resolution pictures between the
camera and CCU.
Built-in down converter
HD signals from the camera can be converted to highresolution SD component SDI output signals using the
wideband down converter. The output signal aspect ratio can
be set to 4:3 edge crop, 16:9 squeeze, or letterbox. The down
converted SD signal has independent image enhancement,
gamma, and matrix functions that can be controlled externally.
Built-in simplified up converter
SD signal return video is displayed in the HD viewfinder using
a simple up converter. The return video aspect ratio can be set
to 4:3 edge crop, 16:9 squeeze, or letterbox.
Note
The analog composite (WF1 system) and SYNC1 system share a
single connector.
Video inputs
• Reference input (HD/SD support)
• SDI return input, 2-system (HD/SD selectable)
• VBS return input, 2-system
• VBS prompter input, 2-system
(HSCU300RF can transfer only one selected VBS prompter
input system to the camera.)
Electric shock prevention
A safety function cuts the high-voltage supply from the CCU if
the connection to the camera becomes unsafe.
When power is applied, low-voltage power is first supplied to
the camera. After the connected camera is correctly identified
using tone signal detection, the regular DC180 V high-voltage
power is supplied to the camera. Power is not supplied to
cameras not connected via a dedicated camera connection
cable.
Alarm indicators are also fitted to indicate cable open-circuit
and short-circuit conditions.
Overview

Wide range of audio functions
The CCU is fitted with two-channel microphone output, video
signals with embedded audio, and PGM (program) audio
input/output connectors. It also features an intercom system
with two independent channels, and supports four-wire and
RTS/Clear-Com intercom systems.
For information on support for RTS/Clear-Com systems,
contact a Sony service or sales representative.
Microphone volume control
The camera’s microphone volume can be controlled via the
MIC REMOTE connector.
Character monitor signal output
The self-diagnosis status screens and setup menu can be
output as a text character display on the video output signal.
See “Video outputs” on page 3.
Rack mountable
The CCU can be installed in a standard EIA 19-inch rack. The
height of the unit is 1.5U.
Optional accessories
You can add new functions by incorporating the following
optional accessories.
For information about installing optional accessories, contact
a Sony service or sales representative.
HKCU-FP2 CCU Control Panel
This control panel can be mounted on the CCU in place of the
front panel.
It provides adjustment of basic functions using the operation
switches and volume control.
HZCU-MC3 support software for multi-camera
control systems
Installing this optional accessory enables support for multicamera control systems.
