RED DSMC OPERATION GUIDE

955-0020_V5.1, REV-A | 69

 Enable Camera to camera: Changes to settings on this camera will be sent out via the network as UDP pack-

ets as a SET command, which will then set the property on other cameras. SET commands sent to this

camera will not be propagated.

 Enable External Control: This camera can be controlled via TCP/IP from an external device.

REDMOTE

A REDMOTE that is docked to the DSMC is automatically paired with the DSMC. The MAC address of a locally

attached REDMOTE is displayed in brackets.

To pair the DSMC with REDMOTEs wirelessly, select Scan for REDMOTES. The DSMC scans for any REDMOTEs

that are turned on with REDlink wireless enabled. The available wireless REDMOTEs appear in the left panel.

Use the Pair and Unpair buttons to select and pair/unpair REDMOTEs.

 REDlink Enable: When selected, the DSMC produces a wireless signal. Be sure to disable wireless in any

setting in which the wireless signal could interfere with other devices, such as in a helicopter.

 REDlink Channel: Select the communication channel for the REDlink wireless connection in the event of in-

terference from other wireless devices.

GPIO/SYNC

SYNC

 Sensor Sync Mode: Allows the shutter timing (scan start) to be synced to an external signal.

‒ Off: Sensor free runs at the current sensor frame rate. This is the default option.

‒ Genlock: Sensor synchronizes with the incoming compatible genlock signal. Genlock syncing of the

monitors is separate from syncing of the sensor, and other methods of sensor sync can be selected

while genlocking the monitors. HD-SDI monitor genlock syncing occurs automatically when a genlock

signal that is compatible with the selected monitor frequency is present.

‒ MoCo: Each rising edge on the sync input triggers a frame to be captured. To use MoCo (Motion Con-

trol), go to the Brain GPIO tab and set the Camera Input option to Sync In. When using MoCo, choose a

frame rate that is at least two times (2x) the fastest trigger rate used.

 Genlock Source: Select which genlock input should be used:

‒ Brain (default)

‒ Rear Module

BRAIN GPIO

 Camera Input: Select one of the following options to configure the input for devices connected to the SYNC

connector on the brain:

‒ Sync In: The camera input is used as a sync-in signal for MoCo.

‒ General Purpose In: Use the Brain GPI In High/Low drop-down menus to map inputs to actions.

 Camera Output: Select one of the following options to configure the output for devices connected to the

CTRL connector on the brain:

‒ Sync Out: Provides an output sync signal to act as a shutter start tally.

‒ Recording Indicator Out: Provides a signal when recording is in process.

NOTE: For more information about connectors, go to “Input/Output Connectors” on page 117.

GEN AND SYNC STATUS ICONS

The Lower Status Row of the camera display has GEN and SYNC icons, which change color based on the

current genlock and sync statuses. For information about what each color indicates, go to “Icon Behavior” on

page 36.
