Configuring remote control
To place the QuVIS Acuity under remote serial control, use the following steps.
Requirements
•
QuVIS compatible Serial device or edit controller supporting either Sony or Odetics serial protocol, connected
to the Acuity via 9-pin serial cable (wired straight-through).
•
For Standard Definition projects, the QuVIS Acuity emulates a Sony Digital Betacam VTR machine.
•
For High Definition projects, the QuVIS Acuity emulates a Sony HDCam VTR machine.
Sony and Odetics protocol (RS-422)
Select the Serial Control Protocol
1.
Navigate to the
Serial Setup (2/8)
menu page.
2.
Select the serial protocol to be used by clicking on the button labeled
RS-422 A protocol
to activate a list of
possible choices. Once the desired protocol option has been selected from the list, press the center touchpad
button to complete the selection.
Note:
If you select the Odetics protocol, you must also complete
step 3
to assign the directory to be used by
the Odetics protocol.
3.
(Odetics protocol only)
The Odetics protocol allows the operator to select from a list of available clips
remotely. All of the clips that reside in the directory specified by the
Odetics Clips Directory
setting are made
available to the Odetics controller for playback.
Note:
The
Odetics Clips Directory
is currently set to a fixed location, the
/odetics
directory on the primary
system volume. The directory may need to be manually created if it does not already exist.
IMPORTANT!
Make sure that all of the clips in the
Odetics Clips Directory
are the same format and frame rate.
Failure to do so may produce video playback or communication errors.
