EK 6042 : INSTALLATION : Mounting the EK 6042 into a video camera
Mounting the EK 6042 into a video camera
You can mount the EK 6042 into the receiver slot of a video camera.
*For cameras with UniSlot/SuperSlot™ interface (e.g. Panasonic, Ikegami, ARRI, Sound Devices) you require the GA 6042‑25 mounting kit.
*For Sony video cameras, you require the GA 6042‑15 mounting kit.
Each mounting kit consists of an adapter plate 4 and a D‑sub adapter 5.
*Secure the adapter plate onto the receiver slot 7 of your video camera using the four supplied screws 3.
*Carefully connect the D‑sub adapter to the multi-pin interface of the EK 6042 2. Secure the D‑sub adapter to the EK 6042 using the two supplied screws 6.
*Slide the EK 6042 with the mounted D‑sub adapter through the adapter plate into the receiver slot.
*Secure the EK 6042 to the video camera using the two supplied screws 1.
The EK 6042 is connected via its multi-pin interface to the video camera and is powered via the video camera’s rechargeable battery
If you use the EK 6042 in the receiver slot of a video camera with UniSlot/SuperSlot™ interface (e.g. Panasonic, Ikegami, ARRI), the audio signals of both receiving channels are transmitted to the camera via the receiver’s multi-pin interface.
If you use the EK 6042 in the receiver slot of a Sony video camera, it might be that the camera only accepts the audio signal of receiving channel CH1. If you also want to transmit receiving channel CH2 to the video camera:
*Use the Y‑adapter cable to connect the 5-pin mini XLR socket (Top) AUX 1/2 to a second audio input of your Sony video camera.
