Dstar
data from a BR Remote control desk is connected normally via the XLR4 input socket.
There is an additional
9pin Dsub
on the base of the camera. This outputs Metadata and
accepts other types of control data. This is
AUX
data and the
AUX Protocol
can be
selected from the Setup menu.
DMX, Mstar and Free-D
data is input on this
Dsub connector.
Once you have selected the Protocol the
menu will request further settings.
Selecting
DMX
will then prompt for the DMX
Base Address.
Selecting
Free-D
will prompt for
