Connect the video switcher and the cameras to a power source. Use only suitable cables and connectors.
Connect the cameras to the video switcher (IN) using the SDI cable - camera 1 to input 1, camera 2 to input 2,
and so on. Also connect the cameras to your computer using network cables. Position the cameras at their
destination. If desired, connect (preview) screens to the video switcher (OU ).
Output 16 is defined as the program output by default in the system - this outputs the current camera image to
a main screen. Connect output 16 to your output device (e.g. beamer) accordingly. he image selection is
controlled via CamControl2 software - therefore connect the video switcher to a computer with CamControl2
using a network cable.
If required, the cameras can be adjusted via an external controller. his is useful, for example, if cameras are to
be set during a conference, for example to adapt to speakers. If necessary, connect the external control to your
computer via a network cable. (For operation of the camera control, please refer to the operating instructions of
the corresponding device.)
he camera system is now ready for use.
