PRO IO

[Stuart English]

Now, can someone tell me the pin assignments, specs and cable availability for:

1. Time code (5 Pin Lemo) - I understand that it is both Input (jam) and Output (generator)
2. GPIO (4 Pin Lemo) - Same as on R1???
3. Power (4-pin LEMO) - Same as on R1???
4. AUX (10-Pin Lemo)

All these connectors have the same pin outs as on the RED ONE... the Power Out is the same as a GPIO except the I and O pins are inactive - just the two power pins are active.

Does anybody know if the Module Adaptor is needed to connect the Pro I/O module, or can you connect it directly without it?

 

[Keegan@Netflix]

Yes you will need the Module Adaptor to connect the Pro I/O.

Will there ever be a possibility to mount the DSMC backpack with the quickplate to a DSMC module like the PRO I/O or the upcoming +1 Monitor Adaptor?

Thanks Stuart for speedy reply. Greatly appreciated.

no notice ordered the first day

You need to order within the first hour, not the first day. ;-)

That's funny. Yes, it helps

I just got the Pro I/O Module today. Couldn't do much testing but after installing Beta Firmaware 3.3.3, it seems to be working seamlessly.

One of the peculiarities of the LCD/EVF output on the Pro I/O module, is that if you plug the LCD into that port it doesn't let you access the menus. Basically the touch capability goes away. In order to avoid this, you must plug the LCD into the side SSD module on the brain and the EVF into the top of the Pro I/O Module. All this is fine, I just wish I had a longer EVF cable as the 18" is a bit short for certain adjustments. I would love to see a 24" EVF cable for more flexibility.

I finally got the last essential piece of the puzzle and I couldn't be happier.

Could the pro IO possibly just have the evf/lcd port set to clean in the settings? You may be able to go into the menus and change the setting to get the menus.

It's not that, I do have the option to make it clean or have the menus. It's just that the LCD looses the touch capability when plugged into the Pro I/O Module...

ah I see. Thats a bummer. But I'm sure a firmware update could fix that.

Could you post some pic with it, would want to to see how big it gets with the module adapter in between also
