Features
ExpressCard Memory Slots (2): Both of these slots accept ExpressCard/34 (34mm wide) memory cards (not ExpressCard/
54). Only cards qualified for use by AJA should be used with the Ki Pro.
NOTE: ExpressCard memory is not supported in Ki Pro firmware versions 1.0 through 2.0. Support for
ExpressCards is enabled for Slot 1 only, beginning with firmware version 3.0.
Head Phone Jack: 1/8” (3.5mm) miniature stereo TRS connection for standard stereo headphones.
Connector Side
Connect any camcorder, camera, or audio source—digital or analog—regardless of
brand or format, to Ki Pro’s many connectors. The connector side of Ki Pro contains the
available audio/video connections, which are protected by handles that extend past the
connectors. These handles make for an easy grip when inserting or removing the Ki Pro
from the optional Exo-skeleton. On the back side of the unit, a single power connector
supplies the 12-Volt DC operating voltage (see Installation later in this chapter).
The function of Ki Pro’s inputs and outputs depend on the operational mode. Ki Pro’s
active input (the one to be recorded) is selected by front panel, web browser, or wireless
device browser. Ki Pro’s outputs are active all the time. In other words, the same output
video appears simultaneously on the HDMI, SDI, component, and composite outputs.
NOTE: You should be aware of the limitations of each output. The composite output is by definition
an SD signal, so it will not output HD. The HDMI output is by definition an HDMI-compatible
signal, so 1080PsF formats cannot be output via HDMI; instead use a true progressive format
for the HDMI output.) This method of operation allows simultaneous connection to source
devices, onset monitoring displays, and audio equipment.
