Sony HDC-1500 Security Camera User Manual


 
The HDC-1000 Series of cameras
is compatible with a variety of peri-
pherals including camera control
units, remote controllers, command
network units, and master setup units.
This allows operators to flexibly con-
figure the system according to their
needs both in the studio and out in
the field. Optional triax adaptors are
available for the HDC-1000/
HDC-1400/HDC-1500 optical fibre-
based camera to enable triax-based
operation.

Camera Control Unit
The HDC-1000 Series of cameras can be confi-
gured with two types of camera control unit
– the full-size HDCU-1000 and half-rack-size
HDCU-1500. The optical fibre transmission
system used in these units maintains the high
picture quality of the camera across cable runs
of up to 3000 meters (9843 feet)

with the HDCU-
1000 and up to 1800 meters (5906 feet)
1
with
the HDCU-1500. Both models are equipped
with a comprehensive range of built-in inter-
faces such as HD-SDI/SD-SDI outputs, HD-SDI/
SD-SDI/analogue composite return inputs,
and a down-converted analogue composite
monitor output. In addition, a variety of output
interfaces are offered via optional boards,
which can be installed in four slots on the
HDCU-1000 and two slots on the HDCU-1500.
Furthermore, the Ethernet interface (10Base-T/
100Base-TX) that is built into both CCUs
allows the camera to be controlled over a
network.
1 When supplying power to the camera via the optical
fibre cable, the maximum cable length varies with the
camera system configuration, lens type, viewfinder
type, and the number of cable connectors.

> The HKCU-1001 SD Analogue Interface
Unit provides two analogue NTSC or PAL
VBS signal outputs, a PIX (picture monitor)
output, and a WFM (waveform monitor)
output.
Three types of interface expansion option are available for both CCUs.
HDCU-1000
> The HKCU-1003 Multi Interface Unit consists
of three types of interface board and
provides:
– Two analogue NTSC or PAL VBS signal outputs,
a PIX output, and a WFM output (Board A)
– A frame reference input, output to lock 2-3
pull-down sequence, a PIX output, and a WFM
output (Board B)
– Analogue NTSC or PAL VBS and analogue com-
ponent R/G/B or Y/R-Y/B-Y outputs (Board C)
