The RCP-TX7 Remote Control! Panel enables remote
operation of the DXC-D30/D30P or DXC-637 series
Color Video Camera.
This unit's features are described below.


Connectable to camera controi unit or
camera head


When a CCU (CCU-TX7/TX7P Camera Control Unit)
has been connected toa CA (CA-TX7/TX7P Camera
Adaptor) that is docked with a camera head, this unit
can be connected to the CCU to enable remote
operation of the camera via the CCU.
When the DXC-D30/D30P is docked with a CA-537/
537P Camera Adaptor or VCR, this unit can be
connected to the DXC-D30/D30P to enable direct
operation of the camera. :


# Full control of shooting operations


Besides controlling camera adjustments and settings,
this unit can control tripod operations (pan and tilt) and
lens settings (focus and zoom).


Confirmation of camera conditions and
operation status


This unit's LCD panel indicates camera conditions
such as the optical filter position, value, and lens
extender setting. The results of the camera's self-
diagnosis tests are also displayed on the LCD panel.


Scene file


The unit provides memory to hold data on shooting
conditions for 16 different scenes, to enable easy
readjustment of the camera for any memorized scenes.


Coordination of settings among several
cameras


In a system that includes several cameras that are
connected via CCUs, connecting the CCUs allows this
unit to set up all of the cameras into the same color
condition.


# High-precision and high-speed control


Commands can be issued at high speed, which means
that remote operation with the unit's knobs can be
performed more smoothly than with previous remote
control devices. Also, high-precision data transfer
raises control precision.


# eh


CCU/camera connector


(10-pin): Use the


supplied cable to connect
this unit to a CCU or
camera head. The power
supply to this unit and the
signal exchange are both
carried out via this
connector.

## Skin Detail Corre ~ DXC-D30/D30P Only)


The skin detail and skin matrix functions can adjust
detail level and matrix (saturation and hue) of a
selected skin gate area (area designated by color,
range).
Once a skin gate area has been selected, it can be used
as a target for both skin detail correction and skin
matrix adjustment, and activation of each function can
be performed independently.


Selecting the skin gate area


Normally, use the AUTO SETUP SKIN DETAIL
" button (see page 6) to designate the skin gate position
(target color) automatically.


1 Press and set the AUTO SETUP SKIN DETAIL
button to on.


The AUTO SKIN menu appears on the LCD panel,
and the window which shows the skin gate and
target area appears in the camera's viewfinder.
You can see the skin gate with a picture output
from the CCU's PIX connector.


2 Press the AUTO SETUP SKIN DETAIL button
again.


The skin gate is designated automatically.
You can manually adjust the position of the
designated skin gate in the SKIN GATE menu
(page 3/3, advanced setting page)


3 Set the size of the skin gate area (target color
range) manually using the SKIN GATE menus if
necessary.
Using page 1/3 of the AUTO SKIN or of the
SKIN GATE menu: You can adjust the R-Y
and B--Y ranges to the same value at the same
time.
Using page 2/3 of the SKIN GATE menu: You
can adjust the R-Y and B-Y ranges
independently.


Performing skin detail correction


By skin detail correction, you can lower the detail
level of the skin gate area to the detail level outside of
the area.


1 Press and set the SKIN DETAIL button to on (see
page 8).


## 2 Use the LEVEL knob in the SKIN DETAIL menu


to set the detail correction level.
Setting the level to the max. value (+99): The
detail level of the area is set to the lowest level.
Setting the level to the min. value (~99): The
detail level of the area is set to the same level _
with the outside of the area. (The same situation
as the skin detail function is set to off.)


If you power off the unit or store the current
settings as a scene file while setting the detail level
to -99, the skin detail function will be set to off
when you power on the unit or recall the scene file
next time.


To store the skin detail settings
Set the SKIN DETAIL button on before powering off
the unit or storing the settings as a scene file. If the
button is off, the skin detail settings will not be stored.


## Performing skin matrix adjustment


Follow the procedure described below to adjust the
matrix (saturation and hue) of the skin gate area.


## 1 Select the ON button on both pages 1/2 and 2/2 of


the MATRIX menu.
(Be sure to activate the matrix adjustment function
on page 1/2.)


## 2 Use the SATURATION and HUE knobs in page


2/2 of the MATRIX menu to adjust the saturation
and hue.


Selecting 00 causes the same situation as the skin
matrix function is set off.
If you power off the unit or store the current
settings as a scene file while selecting 00, the skin
matrix function will be set to off when you power
on the unit or recall the scene file next time.


To store the skin matrix settings
Activate both the matrix adjustment and skin matrix
adjustment functions before powering off the unit or
storing the settings as a scene file. Otherwise, the skin
matrix settings will not be stored.

# Vi-L


In a multi-camera system, connecting all the CCUs via
the RS232C connectors allows one RCP unit selected
from all the RCP units in the system to control the
multiple cameras.
If the selected unit is set as the master unit and the rest
are set as slave units, the setting data of the camera
connected to the master unit can be transferred to other
cameras.


To make connections among the CCUs
Connect RS-232C cross (or reverse) cables with D-sub


25-pin plugs (not supplied) to the RS232C connectors
on each CCU to make a daisy chain of the CCUs.


For more information about cables which can be used,
consult your Sony dealer.


¢It is impossible to assure that all the cameras can be
set up to the same conditions under the multi-camera
control. Setting purposes and the current condition of
each camera may cause variation of the settirig
condition.
¢In a system which contains more than two types of
cameras, the setting items, adjustment range and
adjustment accuracy available at the multi-camera
operation are determined depending on the efficiency
of the camera connected to the master unit.


* There are two setting modes: Absolute mode and
relative mode,


«Settings performed on a slave unit are valid only to
the connected camera.


## Setting a unit to the master unit or a slave unit


Command link allows one RCP selected as the master
unit to control the adjustments or settings of the
cameras connected to the slave units.


## To perform command link adjustments/ settings


The following table shows the adjustments or settings
which can be performed by command link. Perform a
listed operation before the desired adjustment or
setting on the master unit.
Other than the adjustment or setting listed in the table,
iris and master black can be adjusted by command link
in a different way.


For iris and master black adjustments, see "Adjusting the
Iris and Master Black of Multiple Cameras at One Time" on
next page.


Perform the following procedure after making sure all
the cameras in the system are powered on. Note that
executing the procedure when there is any cameras
powered off may result in failure.


1 Select one RCP unit for the master unit, and press
the MASTER button. (The button lights when
pressed.)


2 Select one RCP unit (or more) for a slave unit, and
press the SLAVE button: (The button lights when
pressed.)
