HEADPHONE
A 3.5mm stereo jack provides two channels of adjustable level analog audio for monitor headphones.

A (TIP) LEFT Left channel audio Out
B (RING) RIGHT Right channel audio Out
C (SLEEVE) GND Camera ground --
The camera’s four audio channels may be monitored in pairs: either 1L - 2R or 3L - 4 R or as a quad mix
of 1+3L 2+4R based on the MIX parameter. Default is 1L-2R.
Output volume may be adjusted as follows.
Volume: (master volume) Adjusts headphone volume equally for left and right outputs.
Range is -18dB to 0dB in 1dB steps. Default is -9dB.
NOTE: for maximum output signal quality, only use high impedance headphones.
SYNC (VIDEO SYNC)
A 4-pin LEMO connector supports shutter synchronization, GPI, timecode and genlock input signals.
The shutter Sync input signal acts as an immediate response hardware trigger to commence a scan.
This is useful for motion control and other applications where the camera is driven by a master timing
device. When using SYNC as the camera shutter timing reference, fine shutter start time timing
(SHUTTER PHASE) is disabled; make any desired timing adjustments at the external SYNC generator.
Alternatively, this input may be used as a GPI (General Purpose Input) trigger, whose function is
programmed in the USER KEYS menu. Default function for the GPI trigger is Record Start / Stop.
The SMPTE timecode input provides a frame accurate time stamp for each frame of recorded video.
External TC must be chosen in the Project > Timecode menu. When SMPTE timecode is detected it will
align the internal TC value to the external TC signal at every :00 frame crossing of the external TC signal.
The Video Genlock input may be used as a vertical interval reference signal for the sensor and HD-SDI
outputs when precise synchronization is required between cameras, such as for 3D and live broadcasts.
