PrecisionHD 1080p12x

The information on this page applies to the PrecisionHD 1080p12x camera. The camera has DIP switches for video output format setting.

NOTE: The early shipments of the Quick Set C20 came with an interim version of the PrecisionHD 1080p4x camera (the PrecisionHD 1080p4x* camera). The interim version has DIP switches for video output format setting, see the table on this page.

Video output formats

The DIP switches 1 to 5 sets the video output format for the camera. The DIP switches are located under the camera. The default setting is Auto, see the table to the right.

Maximum resolution:

•1080p60 for PrecisionHD 1080p12x zoom

•1080p30 for PrecisionHD 1080p4x* zoom

•1080p30 for HD-SDI**

Software control

The table shows the different settings available for the HDMI and the HD-SDI outputs.

Auto: Camera negotiates format over HDMI. HD-SDI tracks HDMI and defaults to 1080p30 in absence of HDMI sync.

Software: For more on the Software control setting, read about video mode selections in the Appendice section. Go to: Controlling cameras using the VISCA™ protocol.

The camera will automatically detect the line voltage frequency when it is 50 or 60 Hz. If there is a different line voltage, you can set the video output format to a specific value (use the DIP switches) to override the auto frequency detection.

Set the PrecisionHD 1080p DIP switch (country specific setting):

•50Hz: 00011, gives 1080p50 (720p50 for HD-SDI)

•60Hz: 00100, gives 1080p60 (720p60 for HD-SDI)
