Digital audio
Two digital audio channels are available as AES signal. Set the An VF Out/AES in switch to
AES in and connect an AES digital audio source to the An VF Out/AES in connector (top left
BNC connector).
Digital audio channels 3 and 4 are available on the digital audio output (3+4) connector on
the XCU and as embedded audio channels 3 and 4 in the HD-SDI video signal.
Using intercom
Three intercom channels – production (Prod), program (Prog) and engineering (Eng) – are
sent from the XCU to the camera headset. The headset microphone signal is sent back to
the XCU. Intercom signals are available at the XCUs intercom connector on the back panel.
To use the intercom system, connect a headset to the XLR5 connector on the back panel of
the camera. An additional Tracker headset can be connected to the auxiliary connector.
Selection buttons and volume controls for the intercom channels can be found on the front
and the back of the camera.
