TALLY Output Port
1. HDBaseT IN
The HDBaseT ports connect three HDBaseT cameras
via three CAT-6 Ethernet cables. Please note that the
baud rate is 38400 and cannot be changed by the
user. Hence, in order to establish connection with
the camera, you will need to set the camera’s baud
rate to 38400. See Section 5.2 for instructions on
setting the baud rate of connected cameras.
If the camera’s baud rate is already pre-set to 38400,
the camera video should appear on the respective
Multiview quadrants as soon as the camera is
physically connected to the HDBaseT port (See
Multiview Screen below).
Note: The HDBaseT port is designed using Neutrik’s
etherCON A series connector system, which is
optimized for pro audio and video network
applications. Prior to using the HS-1600T MKII, you
will need to first acquire the EtherCON A series
connector to make your own Ethernet cable. Please
visit Neutrik’s official home page
(http://www.neutrik.com/) for more information.
