Example: PrecisionHD 1080p12x cameras in a daisy chain.
Daisy chaining PrecisionHD 1080p12x
A single daisy chain with PrecisionHD 1080p12x cameras
can have:
• Three cameras when using a Codec C60.
• Seven cameras when using a Codec C90.
Locate the extra camera and power connectors:
• Power:
The first camera in the chain is powered up from the
codec by a VISCA camera control cable. Additional cameras
must use the 12V DC Power in.
• Extra camera cable:
The daisy chained cameras are con-
nected by a VISCA Extra Camera cable (maximum length
20 m / 65.6 ft) between the Extra Camera In and Codec
Control In sockets.
• HDMI and HD-SDI:
The HDMI and HD-SDI outputs can be
used simultaneously on the same camera.
NOTE:
Only the first camera’s software is automatically updated
in a daisy chain. To update the other cameras you have to con-
nect them directly to the codec.
