Introduction
The VideoSys camera control solution consists of several distinct components; an ‘RCP’ (Remote Control Panel),
this is made by a camera manufacturer such as Sony and is connected to the ‘IDU’ Indoor Unit. Up to four RCPs
can be connected to a single IDU. The ‘ODU’ Outdoor Unit is basically the data transmitter, it connects to the
IDU and takes the narrow band control data produced by the IDU and transmits it to the data receiver ‘RX’ over
a UHF radio link. From this point on the terms IDU, ODU, RCP and RX will be used.
For simplicity we will focus on a Uni-directional setup and note the connection process for the camera control
receiver, be that an AEON-CC or RXSM-E to the ARRI camera is the same.
Examples of configuration in this manual will use an ARRI AMIRA may not be completely relevant to different
equipment. For specifics on setting up equipment not provided by VideoSys Broadcast, please refer to manuals
supplied by the manufacturer of that product.
