Introduction
The JLCooper MCS6 RS-422 is a remote control for VTRs and other
machines that support Sony 9 Pin "P2" protocol.
The MCS6 controls professional analogue and digital VTRs, modular
digital multitrack and disk-based VTR emulators.
The MCS6 can also operate in certain applications as a control station
input device for computer-based editing systems.
The MCS6 features a smooth, weighted and optically encoded jog
shuttle wheel with concentric shuttle ring, and transport and function
keys.
As shipped from the factory, the MCS6 is normally configured and ready
to use as a VTR controller.
When the MCS6 is intended to be used as an input device for a
computer editing system, it will need to be reconfigured internally.
Instructions for doing this are provided at the end of this manual.
This manual relates to the features and operation of the MCS6 as a 9
Pin/P2 controller. If the MCS6 is used as an input device to a computer-
based system, follow the instructions included with the system.
