INTRODUCTION  
FEATURES  
Cable extension up to 100 meters  
Camera control using serial communication  
The camera control signals are sent by the serial data trans-  
mission method.  
The camera and the RM-P210 are connected by two data  
lines so that the CPUs incorporated in the camera and the  
RM-P210 are in intercommunication, thus facilitating accu-  
rate camera control operations.  
The cable between the camera and the RM-P210 Remote  
Control Unit can be extended up to 100 meters using the  
optional VC-P110 series camera cables. Even when the  
cable is extended, the power to the camera is supplied from  
the RM-P210 so there is no need to provide a separate  
power supply for the camera.  
Multiple output circuits  
Genlock Function Built In  
In addition to two composite video output circuits (VBS),  
the R/G/B component signals, Y/R-Y/B-Y component sig-  
nals or separate Y/C signals (for S-VHS VCR) can be se-  
lected according to the purpose or application.  
Genlocking is possible using a composite video (VBS) or a  
black burst (BB) signal. The SC and H phases can be ad-  
justed from the front panel.

Instructions  
PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE  
Do not supply power to the RTS terminals at the rear.These  
terminals are not designed to accept a power supply.  
When an intercom is used, radio interference may occa-  
sionally affect any system that is connected to the RM-P210.  
In such a case the INTERCOM G (GND) terminal provided  
to the RM-P210 should be grounded.  
To prolong the service life of the RM-P210, do not use it or  
store it in the following places.  
A place subject to extremely high or low temperatures.  
A place subject to excessive vibration.  
A place subject to excessive dust.  
A place subject to high humidity.  
A place near to a strong source of noise.  
In a multiple camera setup, if the adjustments made to the  
different cameras deviate significantly, the cameras may not  
be able to function satisfactorily. Be sure to adjust the cam-  
eras accordingly before using them with the RM-P210.  
Use camera cables with standard lengths, as specified.  
Otherwise, the camera cable compensation may not be able  
to work efficiently.  
Do not apply strong vibrations or impact to the RM-P210  
during installation or transportation.  
If the supply voltage is too high or low, the service life of the  
RM-P210 may be reduced or it may not be able to provide  
an optimum performance.  
The RM-P210 can be connected with the following cameras:  
GY-DV550  
KY-D29  
Do not connect or disconnect the camera cable connector  
KY-D29W  
while the RM-P210 is ON.  
KY-27C  
KY-19  
After turning the RM-210 OFF, wait at least 10 seconds  
For the viewfinder to be used with each camera model, see  
page 8. The controllable functions vary depending on the  
camera model.  
before turning it ON again.  
Noise may interfere with the video when the RM-210 is in-  
stalled near a source of strong magnetism, such as a radio  
or TV transmitting antenna, power transformer or motor.  
: "Functions Available Depending on Camera  
Models" on page 29.  
REF.  
While the values set by using the menus are retained in the  
memory even after the unit is turned off, those set using the  
front panel switches and controls are retained for about 10  
days only and then the factory-set defaults are reset.  
When connecting the RM-P210 to the camera, do not con-  
nect a local remote controller to the camera.  
If the RM-P210 is rack-mounted, be sure to insert venti-  
lated panels above and below it in order to improve ventila-  
tion. Do not stack two RM-P210 units or place any object  
on top of a RM-P210 unit.  
As the LCD contrast is reduced at low temperatures, it should  
be re-adjusted before use in such conditions.  
: Item “6A: CONTRAST” on page 26.  
REF.  
To save power consumption, turn the RM-P210 OFF when  
it is not in use.  
When a transceiver or cellular phone is used near to a RM-  
210 or to a camera connected to it, noise may interfere with  
the video. However, this is not a malfunction.

PREPARATIONS AND MAIN FUNCTIONS  
ADJUSTMENTS FOR GENLOCK OPERATION  
Genlocking is required for a system, which uses an SEG (special effects generator) as the main  
signal source.  
:Example of RM-P210 (Connection 2 units) ” on page 9.  
REF.  
NOTE  
The following adjustments can be made more accurately when using a vectorscope and waveform monitor.  
Be sure to use an underscanned video monitor.  
It is not permitted to genlock the system components using a VCR playback signal.  
Before phase adjustment, wait a little for the phases of the connected components to stabilize.

NOTE  
(Variation range: approx 1/60 to 1/2000)  
* The fixed values are variable depending on the  
camera in use.  
When the FULL AUTO (Full Auto Shooting) is ON, the  
shutter speed becomes EEI. However, the shutter speed  
is OFF in the LoLux mode.  
When FAS is ON, the SHUTTER control cannot be used  
to vary the shutter speed.  
NOTE  
The variation range is variable depending on the cam-  
era in use.  
When ALC+EEI is ON, the shutter speed becomes EEI. At  
this time, the SHUTTER control cannot be used to vary the  
shutter speed.  
The shutter speed displayed on the RM-P210 may  
be slightly different from the actual shutter speed of  
the camera.  
GAIN ADJUSTMENT  
When the illumination of the object is insufficient, the electrical gain can be boosted as described  
below.
