The Interface unit can be configured for one-way data or return data using the
manufacturer OCP/RCP’s.
The blue Tx and Rx LED on the front of the unit indicate correct operation. These indicators
flash at the same rate as the send/receive data LED.
Configure the return data for the interface unit expecting to start receiving data. To do this
use the following menu:
OCP Setup> OCP Channel 1..6> Return Data: Yes
User data out from the MVL Receiver connects to the Interface OCP channel input.
Once valid data is received and returned to the OCP/RCP the blue ‘Rx’ data indicator LED
flashes.
NOTE: The blue ‘Tx’ data indicator LED always flashes when sending data.
When return data is configured and connected, the OCP/RCP displays the actual values
reported back from the camera. If the return data is lost, the camera control still operates
in ‘one-way data’ mode.
NOTE: Data Receivers must also be configured for return data, either via the GUI or unit
menu.
User Data configurations require correct settings in the MVL system.
Key options:
Baud Rate (Sony, Panasonic, Hitachi, Ikegami and GrassValley = 115200)
PID
Link / Gigawave – Tx / Rx
This option is only used when coverage requires more than one Transmitter Head unit.
The concept allows the Data Receiver to roam between Transition points and the Camera
Control continues operating without the need to change Data Rx settings.
All Transmitter units need to be set to different frequencies to match the frequencies that
the Data Receiver will scan on.
When ‘Head Scanning’ is Enabled, all of the Transmitters constantly transmit data for the
Data Rx to lock onto, even if ‘Tally’ or ‘OCP/RCP’ data is not being sent.
To select the Scanning mode in the Camera Control Interface:
•
RF Setup> Configuration> Head Scanning: Disabled / Enabled
The Data Receiver will also have a Scan Setting Enabled / Disabled option configured by
the GUI or Control menu.
You can set the Data Receiver to scan between two to eight different frequencies. These
frequencies will be the same as set by the Camera Control Interface unit (Transmitting
frequencies).
