Connecting to an External Monitor
If you operate the camera using the buttons, you will need an external monitor connected to the camera.
Connect the camera to an external monitor using the 3G/HD-SDI terminal or HDMI OUT terminal. Use the
terminal on the camera that matches the one you wish to use on the monitor.
Video and audio will be output as a digital signal from the aforementioned terminals.
Connection Diagram
Refer to the following connection diagram. When connecting the camera using the 3G/HD-SDI terminal, use a
commercially available BNC cable; when using the HDMI OUT terminal, use a commercially available HDMI
cable.
NOTES
• When the camera's video output does not appear on the external monitor's screen:
Check the [System Frequency], [Frame Rate], and [3G-SDI Mapping] settings. The factory default setting is
set to system frequency 59.94 Hz, frame rate 29.97P, and resolution 1920 x 1080.
- You can check and change the settings from the Setting Page via the network (

- If you have an external monitor with an HDMI terminal, you can also try connecting the camera using the
HDMI OUT terminal to check the settings.

terminal.
• When the output signal is 480P or 576P, onscreen displays will not be superimposed on the video signal.
