Camera lens cabling
The head has an integral lens drive capability that can directly drive any full-servo digital Canon
or Fujinon broadcast lens. A lens cable to suit a Canon or Fujinon lens can be supplied to
connect the camera lens to the head.
A digital camera lens requires a single RS232 focus and zoom cable connected from the lens to
the Focus/Digital port on the head. Analogue lenses require separate zoom and focus cables
to be connected from the lens to the head. The analogue lens zoom cable connects to the Zoom
port and the analogue lens focus cable to the Focus/Digital port on the head.
Connecting to the Fusion Hand Control Interface (HCI)
The Fusion Hand Control Interface (HCI) is mounted on to the underside of the camera cradle
and is supplied with a single zoom/focus control cable that provides connection between the
head Zoom and Focus/Digital ports and the Zoom/Focus control input port on the HCI unit.
The unit is also supplied with the appropriate cables for connection to the pan bar-mounted
hand
controls and camera lens. Fig. 10 below shows the connection between the Vinten Radamec
Fusion HCI and the head.
NOTE:
1. A digital lens may have analogue zoom and focus hand controls connected
simultaneously with a RS232 digital zoom/focus cable. However, the analogue hand
controls will not function until the digital cable connection is removed, either at the head
or the lens.
2. A separate hand-control unit (HCI) is available to automate the switching of camera lens
control (Canon or Fujinon) between robotic lens control and manual hand controls—
depending on the operating mode of the robotic head.
