Connecting the HD-VRC System

Control Connections

The basic HD-VRC control system consists of the HD-VRC computer, touch-screen monitor and joystick control panel connected together. Remote 

camera equipment is connected using standard Ethernet connections, using a powered Ethernet switch to expand the number of connections 

available to suit your system requirements.

In larger systems, several VRC computer control systems (including μVRC) may be connected together using Ethernet connections.
