AD-1 Camera Control Adaptor
This unit allows you to operate the functions of the camera up to 300m away with the MCU-100 unit.
The AD-1 adaptor connects to the MCU-100 via RJ-45 cabling to the chosen Panasonic camera. This
adaptor changes the RJ-45 connection to a Panasonic CAM/BS cable and multi-pin connector.
NOTE: Be very careful with the Panasonic CAM/BS cable connector which plugs into the remote socket of
the Panasonic camera. This connector only slides into the camera's remote socket when the notches and
pins are matched up correctly. Do not twist or force this connection as damage to the camera or
connector pins may happen.
NOTE: With the AD-1 connected, the menu and other functions of the Panasonic camera may be limited to
remote control only. To regain manual control of the menu functions on the camera first disconnect the AD-1.
The AD-1 also features a BNC type Composite (CV) output which can be taken to an SD monitor on or near
the camera. This Composite output can be used for confidence and composition monitoring and in some
cases to view the camera's own LCD/OSD menus too. Please note this feature is camera model and
firmware dependant.
Each AD-1 adaptor has a built in velcro strap so that the unit can be quickly mounted in a convenient location
on or near the camera.
A micro USB 2.0 port is provided for transfer of firmware updates to the unit. See
page 15
for more details.
