hello ladies and gentlemen in this video hello ladies and gentlemen in this video I will show um how to use our sink K I will show um how to use our sink K I will show um how to use our sink K with some of the most popular uh red with some of the most popular uh red with some of the most popular uh red camera specifically we have a a small camera specifically we have a a small camera specifically we have a a small commodo and uh Raptor Excel uh commodo and uh Raptor Excel uh commodo and uh Raptor Excel uh um this is the kit that comes when uh um this is the kit that comes when uh um this is the kit that comes when uh with your mrmc rig or you can buy with your mrmc rig or you can buy with your mrmc rig or you can buy separately it has a syn box with the separately it has a syn box with the separately it has a syn box with the mrmc board in it so this is the mrmc mrmc board in it so this is the mrmc mrmc board in it so this is the mrmc universal sink box it's called Universal universal sink box it's called Universal universal sink box it's called Universal because it has got two dip because it has got two dip because it has got two dip switches which can independently change switches which can independently change switches which can independently change the setting for trigger which is switch the setting for trigger which is switch the setting for trigger which is switch one and sync which is switch one and sync which is switch one and sync which is switch two so they can put in all two so they can put in all two so they can put in all combination uh that let you use combination uh that let you use combination uh that let you use different cameras for both the camera different cameras for both the camera different cameras for both the camera that we are showing in this video so for that we are showing in this video so for that we are showing in this video so for both the commodo and the Raptor the both the commodo and the Raptor the both the commodo and the Raptor the correct setting for the correct setting for the correct setting for the switch is one and one so this can be a switch is one and one so this can be a switch is one and one so this can be a little misleading because this in in the little misleading because this in in the little misleading because this in in the table this shows that this is a setting table this shows that this is a setting table this shows that this is a setting for the for the for the Phantom but this is actually what works Phantom but this is actually what works Phantom but this is actually what works for this new red camera because they for this new red camera because they for this new red camera because they change how this camera Swit the trigger change how this camera Swit the trigger change how this camera Swit the trigger the start and stop the start and stop the start and stop signal this is for old red cameras 0 and signal this is for old red cameras 0 and signal this is for old red cameras 0 and one for so for commodo inter Raptor you one for so for commodo inter Raptor you one for so for commodo inter Raptor you use one and one on both switches and use one and one on both switches and use one and one on both switches and this this is how we're going to use it this this is how we're going to use it this this is how we're going to use it in the in the in the video it comes with different cable video it comes with different cable video it comes with different cable depending what rig uh you are using so depending what rig uh you are using so depending what rig uh you are using so um this side it will go to the rig if um this side it will go to the rig if um this side it will go to the rig if you have a Milo you use this cable if you have a Milo you use this cable if you have a Milo you use this cable if you have like any rig that use an Alti you have like any rig that use an Alti you have like any rig that use an Alti box like this like all the bolt family box like this like all the bolt family box like this like all the bolt family or other rigs you use this cable or other rigs you use this cable or other rigs you use this cable essentially the same cable with essentially the same cable with essentially the same cable with different connectors so we have an Alti different connectors so we have an Alti different connectors so we have an Alti box here yeah so we are going to box here yeah so we are going to box here yeah so we are going to use this cable for this use this cable for this use this cable for this demonstration now this will cover uh demonstration now this will cover uh demonstration now this will cover uh most of the most of the most of the camera but for some specific camera like camera but for some specific camera like camera but for some specific camera like this to you need some additional cable this to you need some additional cable this to you need some additional cable that you can buy separately uh some of that you can buy separately uh some of that you can buy separately uh some of them uh you can buy directly from Red them uh you can buy directly from Red them uh you can buy directly from Red like this breakout cable here and and like this breakout cable here and and like this breakout cable here and and some of them you can buy from Mark some of them you can buy from Mark some of them you can buy from Mark robers like these two cable that we are robers like these two cable that we are robers like these two cable that we are going to use in this video the first going to use in this video the first going to use in this video the first section uh will show how to use the section uh will show how to use the section uh will show how to use the commodo with Flare and with our kit to connect to the camera in this kit to connect to the camera in this case you don't need either of these case you don't need either of these case you don't need either of these cable you need a specific adapter which cable you need a specific adapter which cable you need a specific adapter which you can buy it from us and the port you can buy it from us and the port you can buy it from us and the port number is number is number is 27193 you can read on top of the screen 27193 you can read on top of the screen 27193 you can read on top of the screen and this will connect directly to the and this will connect directly to the and this will connect directly to the camera camera camera so on the robot so on the robot so on the robot size you use this adapter that comes size you use this adapter that comes size you use this adapter that comes with the kit and then you go in the camera kit and then you go in the camera accessory Port of your Alti box side so you use this adapter side so you use this adapter cable it plugs uh our cable it plugs uh our cable it plugs uh our box and it goes in the external camera box and it goes in the external camera box and it goes in the external camera port of the commodo which is just above port of the commodo which is just above port of the commodo which is just above the power the power the power connector camera it's now off you can connector camera it's now off you can connector camera it's now off you can plug this when the camera it's on it's plug this when the camera it's on it's plug this when the camera it's on it's not a not a not a problem uh when you plug this the camera problem uh when you plug this the camera problem uh when you plug this the camera might start uh recording so you have to might start uh recording so you have to might start uh recording so you have to stop it so now the camera is off so I stop it so now the camera is off so I stop it so now the camera is off so I will switch it have three LEDs One LED is power the Box have three LEDs One LED is power the Box get the power from the robot not from get the power from the robot not from get the power from the robot not from the camera so do not expect to see the camera so do not expect to see the camera so do not expect to see anything uh when you plug this on the anything uh when you plug this on the anything uh when you plug this on the camera if it's not camera if it's not camera if it's not plugged uh in on the on the Alti box you plugged uh in on the on the Alti box you plugged uh in on the on the Alti box you can see it's completely off as soon as can see it's completely off as soon as can see it's completely off as soon as you plug in you got the power so the camera is now you got the power so the camera is now booted so it immediately sent the sync booted so it immediately sent the sync booted so it immediately sent the sync signal out uh and you can see this green signal out uh and you can see this green signal out uh and you can see this green LED that it's pulsating at the same LED that it's pulsating at the same LED that it's pulsating at the same frequency uh which is set in in the frequency uh which is set in in the frequency uh which is set in in the camera so the frequency of the LED camera so the frequency of the LED camera so the frequency of the LED correspond to the frame per second correspond to the frame per second correspond to the frame per second setting of the camera this is now set to setting of the camera this is now set to setting of the camera this is now set to 10 uh frame per 10 uh frame per 10 uh frame per second and this is blinking at 10 10 second and this is blinking at 10 10 second and this is blinking at 10 10 HZ um then there is another LED which HZ um then there is another LED which HZ um then there is another LED which show when flare is sending this trigger show when flare is sending this trigger show when flare is sending this trigger signal to the signal to the signal to the camera so in camera so in camera so in flare if you go flare if you go flare if you go in set up external in set up external in set up external camera you have this button that it's camera you have this button that it's camera you have this button that it's used to test the used to test the used to test the trigger and you can see that when you trigger and you can see that when you trigger and you can see that when you press this the LED goes on and you can press this the LED goes on and you can press this the LED goes on and you can see that the camera start recording when see that the camera start recording when see that the camera start recording when you press once and stop recording when you press once and stop recording when you press once and stop recording when you press it again so the red camera you press it again so the red camera you press it again so the red camera need the pulse to start and the PSE to need the pulse to start and the PSE to need the pulse to start and the PSE to stop and this is how we are going to set stop and this is how we are going to set stop and this is how we are going to set flare uh when we run our flare uh when we run our flare uh when we run our move as you see this works immediately move as you see this works immediately move as you see this works immediately when you plug in you don't need any any when you plug in you don't need any any when you plug in you don't need any any specific setting in the camera it should specific setting in the camera it should specific setting in the camera it should just work immediately the only thing just work immediately the only thing just work immediately the only thing that you might need to check if the you that you might need to check if the you that you might need to check if the you don't see the uh sink coming out of the don't see the uh sink coming out of the don't see the uh sink coming out of the camera is to check that you have the uh camera is to check that you have the uh camera is to check that you have the uh output set to output set to output set to sync so in you go in the main menu and sync so in you go in the main menu and sync so in you go in the main menu and scroll down to system scroll down to system scroll down to system setting select scroll down to to GPO setting select scroll down to to GPO setting select scroll down to to GPO function and make sure that this is set function and make sure that this is set function and make sure that this is set as sync out rather than recording indicator so out rather than recording indicator so if you set to syn out this should work if you set to syn out this should work if you set to syn out this should work and you should see the LED blinking and you should see the LED blinking and you should see the LED blinking that's the only setting that need to be that's the only setting that need to be that's the only setting that need to be checked in the checked in the checked in the camera okay the second uh camera that we camera okay the second uh camera that we camera okay the second uh camera that we are going to show is the uh red btor are going to show is the uh red btor are going to show is the uh red btor s for this s for this s for this camera um you camera um you camera um you need this cable from the standard kit so need this cable from the standard kit so need this cable from the standard kit so this cable from that goes to the Alti this cable from that goes to the Alti this cable from that goes to the Alti box it's same as box it's same as box it's same as before on the camera side you need this before on the camera side you need this before on the camera side you need this uh splitter which has got two BNC one uh splitter which has got two BNC one uh splitter which has got two BNC one for trigger the white one and one for for trigger the white one and one for for trigger the white one and one for sink the yellow one so you connect this as before to the so you connect this as before to the camera accessory camera accessory camera accessory Port of the Port of the Port of the AL as soon as you connect that you will AL as soon as you connect that you will AL as soon as you connect that you will have the power have the power have the power line and then you connect the splitter line and then you connect the splitter line and then you connect the splitter to the to the to the box and then to connect to the camera box and then to connect to the camera box and then to connect to the camera you need two you need two you need two different uh adapter cable one it's the different uh adapter cable one it's the different uh adapter cable one it's the breakout cable that you can get from Red breakout cable that you can get from Red breakout cable that you can get from Red we are going to use this for the sink we are going to use this for the sink we are going to use this for the sink input that goes from the camera into input that goes from the camera into input that goes from the camera into flare using the yellow BNC so you use flare using the yellow BNC so you use flare using the yellow BNC so you use the yellow BNC on the red cable and the the yellow BNC on the red cable and the the yellow BNC on the red cable and the yellow BNC on our MMC yellow BNC on our MMC yellow BNC on our MMC splitter and the other end of this red splitter and the other end of this red splitter and the other end of this red breakout cable which is a little um limo breakout cable which is a little um limo breakout cable which is a little um limo connector it goes into the control Port connector it goes into the control Port connector it goes into the control Port of the of the of the Raptor so PL this into the control and when you do that you can see control and when you do that you can see that you immediately get the sink PSE that you immediately get the sink PSE that you immediately get the sink PSE from the camera we set the camera to 10 from the camera we set the camera to 10 from the camera we set the camera to 10 frame per second to show better that frame per second to show better that frame per second to show better that this is blinking and simultaneously you this is blinking and simultaneously you this is blinking and simultaneously you can read the sink in flare then to have the start and stop flare then to have the start and stop going from flare to the camera we use going from flare to the camera we use going from flare to the camera we use the white PNC and it goes on our um the white PNC and it goes on our um the white PNC and it goes on our um adapter adapter adapter cable cable cable uh y uh y uh y PNC this has a Fisher connector at the PNC this has a Fisher connector at the PNC this has a Fisher connector at the other end that goes into the other end that goes into the other end that goes into the RS Port one of the two RS Port that you RS Port one of the two RS Port that you RS Port one of the two RS Port that you have here one or two they are equivalent have here one or two they are equivalent have here one or two they are equivalent so we are going to plug this into the so we are going to plug this into the so we are going to plug this into the first first first one camera is on and as you see as you one camera is on and as you see as you one camera is on and as you see as you can see it started the recorded the can see it started the recorded the can see it started the recorded the moment that I plug the cable so you can moment that I plug the cable so you can moment that I plug the cable so you can stop it and when you have this then you stop it and when you have this then you stop it and when you have this then you will be able to start and stop the will be able to start and stop the will be able to start and stop the camera from play so if I push the button camera from play so if I push the button camera from play so if I push the button you can you can you can here you can see that you get the LED here you can see that you get the LED here you can see that you get the LED here and the camera starts recording here and the camera starts recording here and the camera starts recording then you push again and it stops so same then you push again and it stops so same then you push again and it stops so same as for the commod or any other red as for the commod or any other red as for the commod or any other red camera it will need a pulse to start camera it will need a pulse to start camera it will need a pulse to start recording and the pulse stop recording recording and the pulse stop recording recording and the pulse stop recording and that's how you need to set in flare and that's how you need to set in flare and that's how you need to set in flare uh your external camera so that it send uh your external camera so that it send uh your external camera so that it send the pulse at the first frame of the mode the pulse at the first frame of the mode the pulse at the first frame of the mode and PSE at the last frame of the move we and PSE at the last frame of the move we and PSE at the last frame of the move we will show this in a later video how to will show this in a later video how to will show this in a later video how to use this in flare
