Sony MAV-555SS Video in Composite connectors BNC type, Video OUT Composite connectors BNC type

aVIDEO IN (COMPOSITE) connectors (BNC type)

Input composite video signals (when the BKMA-513 option is installed). The connectors provide a loop- through connection. A maximum of two inputs are possible.

bVIDEO OUT (COMPOSITE) connectors (BNC type)

Output composite video signals (when the BKMA- 513 option is installed). A maximum of two outputs are possible.

cAUDIO IN (AES/EBU Digital Audio Input) connectors (BNC type)

These jacks input digital audio signals in the AES/ EBU format. Up to three inputs can be supported.

dAUDIO OUT (AES/EBU) connectors (BNC type)

These jacks output digital audio signals in the AES/ EBU format. Up to three outputs can be supported.

eREFERENCE connectors (BNC type)

Input a reference video signal. This may be a video signal with chrominance burst (VBS) or a monochrome video signal (VS).

The connectors provide a loop-through connection.

fTIME CODE IN (Time Code Input) connectors (BNC type)

This is the input jack that is used when recording time codes from an external device. This jack connects to the time code output jack on the external device.

The setting that indicates which of the inputs, either SYSTEM or R1 (R2), in each recording port is to be used for time code recording is make in the “LTC SELECT” expansion menu item (menu 670, 671). (However, when the configuration is 3 input/1 output, SYSTEM is always used at the R3 port.)

Note

The TIME CODE IN (SYSTEM) jack supports only a 1× time code signal. The error message “TM Warning LTC” appears if any other signal is input.

gTIME CODE OUT connectors (BNC type)

These connectors output playback time codes.

hETHERNET1) (10BaseT) connector

In order to control the MAV-555SS from an external device that is connected via Ethernet, connect this connector to the external device with an Ethernet cable.

When using a LAN cable: For safety, do not connect to the connector for peripheral device wiring that might have excessive voltage.

iREMOTE (Remote Control Input/Output) Connectors

REMOTE IN connector (R1, P1, R2/P3, R3/P2,

SPARE)

When controlling the MAV-555SS through an external device, use the 9-pin remote control cable to connect this connector to the external device.

REMOTE IN/OUT connector (1, 2)

When controlling an external device from the MAV- 555SS, use the 9-pin remote control cable to connect the external device to this connector.

VIDEO CONTROL connector (D-SUB 25 pins)

When controlling the internal digital video processor from a remote location, connect the HD digital video controller HKDV-503/900 (sold separately) to this

connector.

For details, refer to the installation manual.

REMOTE PARALLEL I/O connector (D-SUB 50 pins)

The remote control signals from an external device are connected to this connector.

For details, refer to the installation manual.

jAUDIO I/F connector

Connect to the optional BKMA-570 Analog Audio

Expansion Unit.

For information on the BKMA-570 connectors, refer to Section 2-4, “Analog Audio Expansion Box BKMA-570” (page 2-11).

kMONITOR OUT connectors (BNC type, XLR- 3-31)

Output video and audio monitor signals for the port currently selected on the front panel. The XLR connectors (L/R) output the audio monitor signal, and the SDI and ANALOG connectors output a video signal including superimposed information.

Audio monitor output connectors

There are two audio outputs, L and R. The channels output are selected with the meter panel’s MONITOR SELECT buttons and AUDIO INPUT/MONITOR SELECT buttons.
