About this manual

This manual provides the information required for using this unit with the devices mentioned above. If another device is to be connected, refer to the operation manual supplied with the device to be connected.

Overview

The HDFA-200 is an intelligent transmission interface unit with high bit-rate transmission technology. The unit enables 3D multicamera system operation if you connect two cameras (left and right, hereafter referred to as L/R) such as HDC-P1 HD Multi Purpose Cameras to a Camera Control Unit via this unit, using a single optical fiber cable. This also enables transmission of RGB 4:4:4 signals if you connect an F35 Digital Cinematography Camera and creates a multicamera system with 35-mm imagers.

Features

Improving operation efficiency by connecting a single fiber cable

High bit-rate digital optical transmission technology enables you to send signals from two cameras to a CCU, using a single optical fiber cable, and also to supply power and genlock signals to the two cameras.

Power of up to 13 A (maximum 14 V) can be supplied from this unit in total, but available power is limited depending on the devices to be connected or the length of an optical fiber cable. For details, see "Notes on Power Supplied from This Unit" (page 14).

3D multicamera operation

The unit is equipped with 2-channel audio input, intercom, and trunk data (general-purpose control signal via a CCU and HDFA-200) transmission functions that enable system operation of a 3D multicamera system equivalent to that of an existing 2D camera system.

Improving operation with a single remote control panel

The L/R cameras can simultaneously be controlled with a remote control panel connected to a CCU. It is also possible to perform offset control of the left and right cameras, which allows 3D system camera operation with high flexibility.

3D monitoring with a viewfinder

On the screen of a viewfinder connected to the VF connector on this unit, picture from the left or a right camera only, or pictures from both the L/R cameras can be monitored. For L/R camera pictures, split, mix, or Y-difference display function required for rig adjustment for camera setup can be switched.

Linking with an MPE-200 with lens meta data

If a lens supporting serial data transmission is used, the focal length of the lens, zoom position, and iris data are overlaid on an HD-SDI signal output from the CCU as meta data, which supports linking operation with an MPE-200 Multi Image Processor.

Remote operation of a 3D rig ^1) using a trunk data line

General-purpose control signals of up to 150 kbaud can be transmitted as trunk data. The RS-232C or RS-422 signals

such as 3D-rig control signals can be transmitted between the CCU and HDFA-200.

1) Rig: A device to mount two cameras

Improving half-mirror rig operation, using an H/V inverting function

A function to compensate for picture inversion on a half-mirror rig (L/R/H inversion/V inversion/HV inversion, etc.) is implemented. Signal delay caused by inversion is also compensated for.

Simplifying system configuration for HDC-P1 operation

Use of UNIVERSAL SYNC simplifies camera connection, because a CCA-5 camera control signal cable is not required for connecting an HDC-P1 HD Multi Purpose Camera and the unit.

Lightweight and compact design enabling a flexible operation

Mass of only about 3.8 kg (lighter than a portable camera) and multiple general-purpose screw holes allow easy mounting to a rig, tripod adaptor or clamp.

System Configuration

System configurations using peripherals and related devices are shown in the figures below.

The PLD and software versions installed with the devices to be used should be updated.

Notes

• Make the adjustments required for shooting with the cameras before connection.
• For 3D operation, be sure to use two cameras of the same model.
• In 3D mode, the left camera functions as the main camera. Adjusted values registered for the left camera take priority.

The right camera follows the left camera other than for offset setting items.

• Production of some of the peripherals and related devices shown in the figures might be discontinued. For advice on choosing devices, please contact your Sony dealer or a Sony sales representative.
  • Power capacity supplied from the DC OUT connectors is limited.
  For details, see "Notes on Power Supplied from This Unit" (page 14).

Appendices

Notes on Use

Use and storage locations

Avoid using or storing the unit in the following places:

• Where it is subject to extremes of temperature
• In direct sunlight for extended period of time or close to heaters (Note that in summer the temperature in a car with the windows closed can reach 50^ (122°F)).
  • Very damp or dusty places.
• Where rain is likely to reach the unit.
• Places subject to severe vibration.
  • Near strong magnetic fields.
• Near transmitting stations generating strong radio waves.

Avoid violent impacts

Dropping the unit, or otherwise imparting a violent shock to it, is likely to cause it to malfunction.

Do not cover with cloth

While the unit is in operation, do not cover it with a cloth or other material. This can cause the temperature to rise, leading to a malfunction.

After use

Set the CAMERA POWER switch on the unit to the OFF position.

Care

If the body or panels of the unit become dirty, wipe them with a dry cloth. For severe dirt, use a soft cloth steeped in a small amount of neutral detergent, then wipe dry. Do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol or thinners, as these may damage the finish.

Error Messages

If a problem occurs during operation, a warning message is displayed.

Note

To display a message, set the DISPLAY switch to ON or MENU.

Message Meaning

NO MEMORY STICK A “Memory Stick” operation was attempted with no “Memory Stick” in the slot.
OTHER MODEL’S FILE You attempted to read a file of other models having no compatibility.
SET SYSTEM CLOCK The time/date of the internal clock have not been set.
TEMP WARNING	Internal temperature raises extremely.

Using a "Memory Stick"

You can use "Memory Stick Duo" and "Memory Stick PRO Duo" media with the unit.

When a "Memory Stick" is inserted in the unit, the file data can be stored on the "Memory Stick," which enables you to share data among devices.

Unit operations have been checked using "Memory Stick" media up to 16 GB.

Note

Only a "Memory Stick" of Duo size can be used with the camera.

Inserting a "Memory Stick"

Insert a "Memory Stick" with the label side facing left into the "Memory Stick Duo" slot until it clicks and the access lamp lights in red.

When the "Memory Stick" is properly set, the lamp lights in green.

Note

If it does not fit into the slot properly or if there is some resistance when you insert it, the "Memory Stick" may be turned around or upside-down. Do not force the "Memory Stick" into the slot. Confirm the direction of the notch and arrow on the "Memory Stick" before inserting the "Memory Stick," and then try inserting it again.

Removing a "Memory Stick"

Confirm that the access lamp is not lit in red, then lightly push in the "Memory Stick" to release the lock.

Note

If the access lamp is lit in red, data is being read from or written to the "Memory Stick." At this time, do not shake the product or subject it to shock. Do not turn off the power to the product or remove the "Memory Stick." Doing so may damage the data.

Protecting saved data

To prevent accidental erasure of important setup data, use the LOCK switch on the "Memory Stick."

Slide the switch upward to the write protect position.

This ensures that you cannot inadvertently overwrote data on the "Memory Stick."

Note

When using "Memory Stick" media that does not have a LOCK switch, be careful not to inadvertently overwrite or erase your data.

Precautions

- Do not attach anything other than the supplied label to the "Memory Stick" labeling position.

- Attach the label so that it does not stick out beyond the labeling position.

- Carry and store the "Memory Stick" in its case.

- Do not touch the connector of the "Memory Stick" with anything, including your finger or metallic objects.

- Do not strike, bend, or drop the "Memory Stick."

- Do not disassemble or modify the "Memory Stick."

- Do not allow the "Memory Stick" to get wet.

- Do not use or store the "Memory Stick" in a location that is: — Extremely hot, such as in a car parked in the sun

— Under direct sunlight

— Very humid or subject to corrosive substances

• To prevent data loss, make backups of data frequently. In no event will Sony be liable for any loss of data.

• Unauthorized recording may be contrary to the provisions of copyright law. When you use a "Memory Stick" that has been pre-recorded, be sure that the material has been recorded in accordance with copyright and other applicable laws.

• "Memory Stick" and are trademarks of Sony Corporation.
