NOTE: When GENLOCK is selected as the sensor shutter reference, shutter start timing (SHUTTER PHASE) may 
still be adjusted. HD-SDI monitor outputs will automatically sync to the external GENLOCK signal as soon as it 
is detected, there is no need to enable this function. Sensor shutter sync to GENLOCK is only supported with 
HD-SDI.
PIN SIGNAL DESCRIPTION 
1 GROUND Common Ground 
2 SS/GPI Shutter Sync/GPI Trigger Input
3 TIMECODE SMPTE unbalanced timecode Input
4 GENLOCK RS170A Tri-Level Sync Input 
The Camera BRAIN’s Shutter Sync/GPI Trigger uses a 3.3 V Schmitt trigger (5 V tolerant). It is not a switch 
closure circuit. Therefore, it requires current supplied by the trigger source. Both edges of the input signal may 
be used as a trigger.
For example, when GPI trigger is used for Record Start/Stop.
  Start Record: On Ground to 3.3 V transition
  During Record: Hold at 3.3 V
  Stop Record: On 3.3 V to Ground transition
  During Stop: Hold at Ground
