3D Signal Recording and Playback: Connections
When connecting a 3D monitor for viewing 3D
video, select the signal connector and format to
suit the monitor type or display method. The unit’s
output connector and signal format are selected
by the SETUP - VIDEO - OUTPUT SEL menu
setting.
Connect the master and slave units together with
a USB 2.0 cable between the LINK (USB) ports,
an RS-422A/D-SUB9P cable between the LINK
(D-SUB) connectors, and BNC cables between
the synchronizing jacks, as illustrated. With these
connections, setting the units to 3D REC/PB mode
enables 3D playback. The 3D side-by-side or
frame packing (HDMI-only) signal is output from
the master (L) SDI or HDMI output connector, and
3D video can be viewed on the 3D monitor.
