MASTER/SLAVE OPERATION
NOTE: Master/Slave operation requires a GIG-E port, which is available on the DSMC2 REDVOLT Expander and
DSMC2 Jetpack-SDI Expander. For more information, go to “GIG-E (Ethernet)” on page 181.
This section describes operation in Master/Slave configuration and clip naming conventions for clips recorded
on those cameras. Master/Slave is the most common configuration for Stereo/3D productions.
When cameras are operated in Master/Slave configuration, you can perform the following operations:
Power: Turn off the Master camera to turn off both cameras.
Record: Press the PWR/REC key on the Master camera to start/stop recording on both cameras.
Change settings: Change settings on the Master camera, to change settings on the Slave camera.
NOTE: The Master camera controls metadata and basic camera parameters of the Slave cameras. Any other
setting changes required by the Slave cameras must be made before recording.
For a Master/Slave configuration to function, the cameras must have the same:
