Operation

1-1. Overview

The CAC-6 return video selector selects a return video signal of a video camera system and turns the

microphone of the headset on and off. The CAC-6 is designed to be attached to the panning rod of a

tripod. You can control the return video signal and headset microphone while operating the video camera.

The buttons on the CAC-6 are operated with a light touch of a ﬁnger so that unwanted movement of the

camera can be avoided.

The CAC-6 can be mounted on the panning rod of the following tripods. The diameter of the mounting

part is 25 mm.
