Main camera
Normally you should use Connector 1 (HDMI) on the codec for
the main camera. When the main camera is a Quad Camera
or a PTZ-12, always use Connector 1 (HDMI) on the codec
for this camera. If you are using 3G SDI from the Precision 60
Camera as the main camera, then the Connector 6 will be for
the main camera.
Using the HD-BNC connector
You can connect a Precision 60 camera to the codec using
a coaxial cable for the video signal (3G SDI). Because the
camera has a BNC connector and the codec has an HD-BNC
connector, you will need a BNC to HD-BNC cable or a BNC
to HD-BNC adapter. For camera control, connect the camera
control cable (Ethernet) between the camera control ports.

Adding multiple cameras
The Codec Pro supports up to seven cameras. The
codec has six video input connectors for cameras
and content.
• For six cameras and no content, all six video
inputs can be used for cameras.
• If the total number of input sources (cameras
and content) exceeds six, you will need an
external video switch. If any of the cameras are
connected through the video switch you will
need a program (macro) to change camera IDs
in the API.
• If you need more than two Ethernet ports for
camera control, then you will need an Ethernet
switch.
• Only one camera with speaker track functional-
ity can be connected at the time. Cameras with
speaker track functionality are the Quad Camera
and SpeakerTrack 60
• Multiple PTZ-12 cameras are supported from
CE9.7.
See the
Customization Guide
for details on macros
and the use of an external video switch.
