Connecting a Device Equipped with VISCA RS-422 Connector

Connection via the VISCA RS-422 connectors enables control of multiple cameras. This allows the connection up to 1,200 m (3,937 feet) away.

Prepare the connecting cable using the RS-422 connector plugs that come with the camera and the Remote Control Unit.

For making the cable, refer to the pin assignments of the VISCA RS-422 connector (pages 76 and 77) and the wiring diagram of VISCA RS-422 connection

(page 79).

For the use of the RS-422 connector plugs, see back cover.

Notes

•When using the VISCA RS-422 connectors, check that the BOTTOM switch on the bottom of the camera (page 19) and the DIP switch on the bottom of the Remote Control Unit (page 23) are set to RS-422.

•When the connections using the VISCA RS-422 connectors are made, the VISCA RS-232C connection is not available.

•Do not make the VISCA RS-422 connection and the VISCA RS-232C connection simultaneously. If both cables are connected simultaneously, the camera may malfunction.
