Synchronizing with an External Device

Synchronizing with an External Device
Using genlock synchronization, you can synchronize this camera’s video signal to that of an external video
device. Similarly, using an external time code signal, you can synchronize this camera’s time code to the external
signal. Using the external time code signal with multiple cameras allows you to set up a multi-camera recording.
You can also output the time code signal from this camera to achieve the same result. If you output the time
code (while shooting) from the 3G-SDI terminals or HD/SD SDI terminal* to an editing device, the editor can
create video with the same time code.
* The HD/SD SDI terminal can also output the time code during playback.
Connecting an External Device
When synchronizing the camera to an external signal, input a reference video signal* through the GENLOCK
terminal or output the camera’s signal as a reference signal for an external device through the SYNC OUT terminal.
When synchronizing a time code signal, use the TIME CODE terminal. Be sure to set the TIME CODE terminal to
input or output in advance.
Connect the external device to the camera as shown in the following diagram.
* For the reference video signal, you can use an analog blackburst or tri-level signal.
Connection Diagram
Reference Video Signal Input (Genlock Synchronization)
When a reference sync signal (analog blackburst or tri-level signal) is input through the GENLOCK terminal, the
phases of the camera’s V and H sync will automatically be synchronized to it. The phase difference between the
external Genlock signal and the camera is initially set to 0. The H phase can be adjusted within the range of
approximately ±0.4 H (HD equivalent).
1 Open the [Genlock Adjust.] submenu.
[w Other Functions] > [Genlock Adjust.]
2 Adjust the phase to the desired level, select [Set] and then press
SET.
Use the joystick (Ý) or SELECT dial to select the value for each field
and press SET to move to the next field.
