About digital triax transmission
A powerful error-correction function is incorporated for the
transmission between the camera and CCU. However, if an
error occurs on long-distance transmission because of
external noise or for some other reason, the compensation by
interpolation that partially uses the previous picture may
operate.
In digital triax transmission, the following video delay in
transmission may occur:
• The video delay in transmission between the camera and
the CCU is approx. 9 msec to 12 msec.
• A delay of about 1 frame occurs on the viewfinder display if
a camera image is sent back from the CCU to the camera as
a return signal.
• The prompter video will delay approx. 5 frames in the
standard mode. (For the prompter video, either the standard
mode or the low-delay mode using simplified images can be
selected on the CCU).
• An appropriate delay is applied to the MIC 1 and 2 audio
signals from the CCU according to the video delay.
• It takes a certain time until the video signal transmitted
between the camera and the CCU becomes stable after
power is applied. This is not a malfunction.
About the distances of triax transmission
The maximum and minimum transmission distances allowed
for triax cable connection are shown in the table below. The
distances may vary according to the conditions, such as cable
degradation.
Allowable transmission range when using triax cables with the
following characteristics:
3.8 dB to 45.6 dB at 100 MHz (including the loss at
connectors)
Error Messages
If a problem occurs during operation, a warning message is
displayed.
Using a “Memory Stick”
When a “Memory Stick” is inserted in the camera, the file data
can be stored on the “Memory Stick,” which enables you to
share data among cameras.
