3.1 Signaling LED
In order to visualize informaon, the LED is eming a lot of shorts blinks.
The number of blinks indicates the status of the module.
1 blink each 2 seconds: module rmware boot.
2 blinks each 2 seconds: decoder inializaon OK.
3 blinks each 2 seconds: FPGA loading OK.
4 blinks each 2 seconds: VISCA dialog with camera OK
5 blinks each 2 seconds: Camera video format conguraon OK
6 blinks each 2 seconds: FPGA video conguraon OK
7 blinks each 2 seconds: demand of video format modicaon by micro switch
3.2 Video format conguraon micro switches.
In the "External" mode, the interface module does not change the format of the video camera.
In other modes, the board checks, at the camera power on if the camera video format corresponds to
the switches, otherwise it sends a VISCA command to change format.
The camera must be powered o and powered on TWICE to take the new format into account.

3.3 Solder jumpers Y/C, PS1 and PS2
When the solder jumpers are completed, the Y/C signals from the camera are sent to the decoder of
the module (75 Ohms resistor ere loaded ) and to the J4 connector.
SD-SDI output is funconal and Y / C signals are available for a high impedance input.
Solder jumper
If the Y / C signals must be used in analog externally with loads of 75 ohms, remove the solder
jumpers to avoid the double75 ohms load. In this case the output SD-SDI does not work anymore.
3.4 SD-SDI mode with FCB-EH4300
This camera does not output SD Y/C video signal. It is necessary to realize a solder jump between
CVBS-Y to get a SD SDI output from the interface board.
This connecon can be done by soldering hole No 1 from J4 and J10.

Technical manual 12
3.5 Solder jumpers RS232, PS3 and PS4
These solder jumpers allow to select TTL or RS232 level of external serial communicaon.
RS232 level: signals are converted from RS232 level to TTTL level before connecng to the camera
B B
B B
TTL Level: Communicaon signals are connected to the camera through the FPGA. The RS232
converter is bypassed. This posion is visualized by « B »leer wrien on the Printed Circuit Board.
