Sony CNA-1 Camera Control Network Adapter product description
Seamless Third-Party Integration via IP
The Sony CNA-1 camera control network adapter bridges the gap between Sony system cameras and third-party control software. By utilizing a Simple Protocol based on text commands, developers can quickly create custom applications to manage camera functions over IP networks without the need for specialized, complex programming.
Advanced Protocol Conversion
Acting as a high-performance protocol converter, the CNA-1 translates the original Sony 700PTP protocol into Simple Protocol. This allows for easy communication between cameras and external devices. While it covers the vast majority of Sony camera control functions, it streamlines the workflow by abstracting the most intricate protocol layers.
Modernize Legacy Equipment
The CNA-1 is an essential tool for expanding existing setups. It converts serial protocols to IP, allowing legacy, non-network products to be integrated into a modern network environment. This makes it easy to add additional camera chains to your production infrastructure via a single adapter.
Software-Based Master Control
When paired with the HZC-CSM10 PC-based Master Control Unit (MSU) software, the CNA-1 functions as the master module. This configuration provides full control capabilities without requiring a dedicated hardware MSU. Please note that while software is pre-installed, certain functions require the purchase of specific license keys for activation.
