Installing the Optional Tally Box:
Run a set of wires from each terminal in the Tally Box to each terminal on your camera/
camera unit, one to Program and the other to the Ground, as shown below.
‘NO’ (Normally Open) goes to Program and ‘C’ (Common) goes to Ground.
‘NC’ (Normally Closed) is not used.
The Tally box uses one of the computers USB ports, and needs to be plugged into an
electrical socket with the supplied power supply.
NOTE:
The Tally Box does not supply any voltage for tally. Voltage must be provided by your
Camera Control Units or other source. The Tally Box only opens and closes the tally circuit.
Check your Camera Control Unit’s user manual for more information.
