Characteristics



Two signal outputs for SDI signals

compliant with the EBU Tech.3267-E

standard (BBC No. PSF1/2M, BELDEN

8281 or equivalent coaxial cable; max.

200 m)

EDH (Error Detection and Handling)

flags complying with the SMPTE RP165

standard can be added.

(A switch can be used to enable or

disable the addition of these flags.)

An inter-communications headset can be

used and its volume adjusted.



The STANDBY/ON switch function of

the viewfinder (WV-VF65B, AW-VF80) is

incorporated.

Output signals (brightness and

composite video signals) to the

viewfinder can be switched using the

menu settings.

Zebra pattern and safety zone displays

appearing in the viewfinder can be

switched using the menu settings.

Introduction

Installing the SDI card in a convertible

camera (such as the AW-E350, AW-E650,

AW-E655, AW-E750 and AW-E860) and

mounting the camera on the interface

bracket makes it possible for a viewfinder

and/or inter-communications headset to

be used and thus enable the camera to

be used as a studio camera. In addition,

there are two signal outputs for SDI signals

ompliant with EBU Tech.3267-E standard.

Notes

The AW-PB506A cannot be installed

to the following models;

AW-E300, AW-E300A, AW-E300S,

AW-E600, AW-E800, AW-E800A,

AW-RP605, AW-PB605

When the SDI card unit is to be

discarded at the end of its service

life, ask a specialized contractor

to dispose of it properly in order to

protect the environment.

When connecting or disconnecting a

cable from any unit, ensure that the

power to that unit is turned off.

Do not drop this product or subject it to

strong shock or vibration, as this may

cause it to malfunction.

Avoid using the unit in very humid or

dusty locations, as this may cause it to

malfunction.

Avoid using the product at a cold place

below –10°C or at a hot place above

+45°C because extremely low or high

temperature will adversely affect the

parts inside.
