 HDS Gen3 Polaris Installation Manual

Talkers and Listeners

Do not connect multiple devices outputing data (Talkers) on to 
the input (Rx) of the unit. The protocol is not intended for this type 
of connection, and data will be corrupted if more than one device 
transmits simultaneously. The output however may drive multiple 
receivers (Listeners). The number of receivers is finite, and depends 
on the receiving hardware. Typically three devices is possible.

Video In

A video camera may be added by installing the optional video 
adaptor cable between the power socket on the unit, and the plug 
on the power/data cable.

 

¼

Note: 

The video images will not be shared with another unit via the 

network. It is only possible to view video on the unit connected to 
the video source.
