This has the same shape as the tally/intercom input/ output connector. Take care not to confuse the two when connecting them.
A controller for controlling the lens (a lens with zoom and focus servo) and pan/tilt head (up, down, left, right, defroster, wiper, etc.) is connected here. (Only a

When the control pins (#1 to #10) are connected to the COMM pin (#11), the control signals are sent from the RCU to the camera.
When the controller is to be fabricated, connect a resistor with a resistance of 1 to 10 kilohms (1/8 W or more) between the COMM pin and +5 V pin.
Ensure that both the LEFT and RIGHT pins are not connected to the COMM pin at the same time.
Similarly, do not connect both the UP and DOWN, FAR and NEAR or WIDE and TELE pins to the COMM pin at the same time.
Pins #12 to #15 are used when exercising lens control only. To do this, connect the controller’s FOCUS CONT pin to NEAR (pin #6) and its ZOOM CONT pin to WIDE (pin #8). (Normally, pins #12 to #15 are not used when exercising control by contacts.)
The external sync signals (black burst signals or composite signals) from another system are connected here.
Note:
The input signals must be connected to the BNC connector marked “IN”
AUX signal input/output connector
[AUX IN/OUT]
Connect the line view signals from a live switcher or other device here.
Note:
The input signals must be connected to the BNC connector marked “IN”
