Characteristics

   Two signal outputs for SDI signals 

compliant with the EBU Tech.67-E 
standard (BBC No. PSF1/M, BELDEN 
881 or equivalent coaxial cable; max. 
00 m)

   EDH (Error Detection and Handling) 

flags complying with the SMPTE RP165 
standard can be added.  
( A switch can be used to enable or 

disable the addition of these flags.)

   An inter-communications headset can be 

used and its volume adjusted.

   The STANDBY/ON switch function of 

the viewfinder (WV-VF65B, AW-VF80) is 
incorporated.

   Output signals (brightness and 

composite video signals) to the 
viewfinder can be switched using the 
menu settings.

   Zebra pattern and safety zone displays 

appearing in the viewfinder can be 
switched using the menu settings.

   The VIDEO ON/OFF switch function of 

the viewfinder (AW-VF64) is incorporated. 
( In order to prevent CRT burn-in, the 

AW-VF64 does not come with a standby 
function.)

Introduction

Installing the SDI card in a convertible 
camera (such as the AW-E50, AW-E650,  
AW-E655, AW-E750 and AW-E860) and 
mounting the camera on the interface 
bracket makes it possible for a viewfinder 
and/or inter-communications headset to 
be used and thus enable the camera to 
be used as a studio camera. In addition, 
there are two signal outputs for SDI signals  
compliant with EBU Tech.67-E standard.

Notes

   The AW-PB506A cannot be installed 

to the following models;  
AW-E00, AW-E00A, AW-E00S, 
AW-E600, AW-E800, AW-E800A, 
AW-RP605, AW-PB605

   When the SDI card unit is to be 

discarded at the end of its service 
life, ask a specialized contractor 
to dispose of it properly in order to 
protect the environment.

   When connecting or disconnecting a 

cable from any unit, ensure that the 
power to that unit is turned off.

   Do not drop this product or subject it to 

strong shock or vibration, as this may 
cause it to malfunction.

   Avoid using the unit in very humid or 

dusty locations, as this may cause it to 
malfunction.

   Avoid using the product at a cold place 

below –10°C or at a hot place above 
+45°C because extremely low or high 
temperature will adversely affect the 
parts inside.
