Camera Control Units

CU-HD650-S1 - 4K Camera Control Unit

CU-HD650-S1CU-HD650-S1

The Z-HD6500-S1 connects to its CCU, the CU-HD650-S1, via SMPTE 311M hybrid fiber optic cable over distances of up to 2,000 metres connects, providing transmission of full-bandwidth, uncompressed, native 4K video. With its Integrated HD down-conversion it also provides 1080p, 1080i, or 720p HD output for flexible, multi-format production capability. Embedded audio is available on all SDI outputs and as listen-channels on the intercom. An ethernet data trunk interface supports control of TCP/IP-capable devices. The CU-HD650-S1 has 12G/6G-SDI outputs for 4K(3840x2160) video and selectable 3G/HD/SD-SDI outputs for down-converted HD/SD video. External 3G/HD/SD-SDI return video can be displayed on the camera viewfinder through a built-in cross-converter and frame-synchroniser. The CCU has independent 4K and HD processors enabling it to output HDR and SDR simultaneously and provide independent control of detail enhancement for the down-converted HD output.

Control Panels

RU-1500JY-S3/S11 - Remote Control Panel

RU-1500JY-S3/S11

The high-performance touchscreen Remote Control Unit RU-1500JY-R1/-S3/S11 is connected to the Camera Control Unit (CCU) for remote operation of the camera or directly to the SK-HD camera series or Z-HD camera series. The RU-1500JY-S3&S11 has at on the top panel are lit by back light. Operators can see signs on the panel in the dark operation room.

All key Camera Control functions, such as the one touch color temperature function, makes the RU-1500JY-R1/-S3/S11 ideal not only for professional TV studios but also for OB van use. Lens iris control, pedestal control and preview switch are assembled with an axis joystick control knob (RU-1500JY/-S3/S11). The camera can be easily adjusted using the 3.5 inch LCD touchscreen panel and rotary encoders. Custom switches further support the professional user in designing a personal workflow.



Main control items are:

RU-1500JY-S3/S11

Camera power on/off, auto setup execution, save data file (scene file 0 to 8), manual adjustment using the rotary encoder and knobs, various on/off controls, PIX & WF video output select.

RJ45 Network control up to 128 camera with a distance of up to 100 meters (with repeater this can be extended).

The compact and lightweight SU-1000 features Color LCD indicators in the display section to easily identify and access the provided control parameters. The unit is sufficiently small and lightweight enough to be used in space deprived locations such as encountered on a broadcast OB Van.

The SU-1000 has these primary functions:

  • Selection of a single camera or groups of cameras to be controlled.
  • On/Off control of all functions.
  • Control of all variable data adjustments including Iris & Master black.
  • Selection of storage and operation data files.
  • Transfer of files and data between cameras or groups of cameras.
