2.1.2 Wiring
Power supply unit / battery
Connect the power supply unit provided to the "MASTER DC IN 1" of the camera via the 4-pin
XLR / 2-pin Fischer cable.
To protect against image loss during a power failure or due to pulling the power plug accidentally,
a charged battery should be connected to the "SLAVE DC IN 2".
This battery that is connected to the "SLAVE DC IN 2" will neither be discharged nor run empty
while the camera is properly operated via "MASTER DC IN 1".
Only when the power supply from "MASTER DC IN 1" falls below 22V will the camera switch to
"SLAVE" within 5 ms, and the battery will be used to supply power.
Of course, you can also work with one or two batteries instead of the power supply unit.
The permitted voltage range of the camera is between 18V and 30V DC !
Fully charged 30VDC batteries have voltages of up to 36V and can thus damage the
camera. Please only use 24VDC batteries.
Hand Unit HU-2
(stand alone version)
Cabledoperation
Connect the Hand Unit cable (#19917; 0,6m) provided (7-pin Fischer connector) to "CBUS" on the
HAND UNIT and to "HAND UNIT" on the camera side.
This cable is used for communication with the camera and to supply power to the Hand Unit HU-
2. An alternative cable is the article #19851 which is a 6 m long cable.
Wirelessoperation
For wireless operation, the CAMIN interface including 16-pin C-Motion cable is
required, the proper firmware for communication with the WEISSCAM HS-2 must be
installed, and the radio channels between the CAMIN and Hand Unit HU-2 must be
synchronised.
Connect the RWC-1 cable belonging to the CAMIN (16-pin Fischer connector) to "EXT" on CAMIN
and to "HAND UNIT" (7-pin Fischer connector) on the camera side.
In wireless mode, the Hand Unit HU-2 must be powered via a battery that is attached to the rear
side of the Hand Unit HU-2.
To do so, position the battery on the guide groove and slide it upwards until it engages. In order to
detach and remove the battery, press in the lock button on the bottom of the Hand Unit HU-2 and
remove the battery by pulling it downwards.
