Connections
Connecting a Portable VTR
Using the optional CA-D50/D50P Camera Adaptor
and a camera cable, you can connect a portable VTR.
Set the VTR selector switch on the camera adaptor
according to the VTR connected.
If using a VTR from another manufacturer, consult your
Sony dealer.
Checks before making connections
Check first that the video camera, camera adaptor,
VTR, and other devices are all powered off.
Making connections
Using a camera cable, connect the CCU/VTR/CMA
connector on the camera adaptor to the camera input
connector of the VTR.
Camera cable
• Select a camera cable to fit the camera connector on
the VTR you are using.
• The maximum camera cable extent is 10 m (33 ft).
For details, consult your Sony dealer.
Video monitor
• If using an S-VHS VTR, using a video monitor with
an S-video input connector and connecting it to the S-
video connector of the VTR will allow you to
monitor a clear picture, with no flecking.
• The output video signal from the VIDEO OUT
connector of this unit is a composite video signal.
Connect the VIDEO OUT connector of this unit to a
composite video signal input connector of the
monitor.
Connecting a Number of
Cameras (Using a Camera
Control Unit)
When using a number of cameras in the studio, it may
be necessary to use a CCU-D50/D50P/TX50/TX50P
Camera Control Unit to provide video and color sync
between cameras, and special effects and other devices
to allow switching, wipes and so forth.
In the studio it may also be convenient to use a DXF-
51 Viewfinder.
The figure below shows an example studio
configuration.
For details, consult your Sony dealer.

•When using the CCU-TX50/TX50P Camera Control
Unit, use the PRO 76 PIN (DIGITAL) connector of
the CA-TX50/TX50P Camera Adaptor.

its peripheral equipment.
