Vinten Radamec Quattro SE HPM - Manual (Page 18)

16 Head Processing Module Operators Guide
Alternatively, a 12V power supply can be sourced from the camera or other power supply unit via a
standard 4 pin XLR cable.
The power output socket (12) supplies power to the Quattro-SE pedestal via the pedestal’s cable
management system. For more information please refer to the Quattro-SE Pedestal Operators Guide
(Publication Part No. V3851-4980).
Genlock connections
The Genlock signal synchronises encoder feedback from the various axes with the TV camera,
ensuring that movement data is timed correctly in the VR software application.
There are three identical Genlock sockets on the HPM unit, but the location of each one suits different
applications. The Genlock socket on the rear of the unit (11) should be used to connect to the Quattro-
SE pedestal via the cable management system. One of the two Genlock sockets (3) on the front side
of the HPM unit is used to connect the external studio Genlock signal—the other socket is a spare.
Ethernet connection
Connect the base Comms port (10) to the ethernet port on the Quattro-SE pedestal via the cable
management system. For more information please refer to the Quattro-SE Pedestal Operators Guide
(Publication Part No. V3851-4980).
Head connection
The head encoders cable connects the head encoders port (7) to the encoder connector on the Vector
950E or Vision 250E pan and tilt head. For more information please refer to either the Vector 950E
Operators Guide (Publication Part No. V4004-4980) or the Vision 250E Operators Guide
(Publication Part No. 3793-8).
Lens encoder connection
If required, Vinten Radamec externally mounted lens encoder devices can be connected to the lens
encoders port (6) with an appropriate cable.
CAUTION! Using alternative power sources will invalidate the system EMC
liability.
CAUTION! Do NOT attempt to power other external devices from the HPM
power output socket (12). Damage may occur to the HPM if any
device other than the Quattro-SE pedestal is connected.
