Parts and their functions
3Camera selector switches [CAMERA]
These are used to select one camera and one CCU as
the pair which is to be controlled by the MSU.
A camera is selected by pressing the camera selector
switch with the same number as the camera to be
selected (its lamp will light).  The selection is released by
pressing the camera selector switch of the selected
camera (its lamp will turn off).
When a camera selector switch is pressed, the MSU
settings (such as the switch lamp lighting and selection)
are performed using the information on the settings for
the camera concerned.
The details of the functions given below apply when one
or more camera selector switches have been selected.
4MODE ON/OFF switches 
These switches are for setting the camera operation
modes.  The modes corresponding to the switches with
the lighted lamps are selected.
5600K switch [5600K MODE]
This is used to change the amplification rate of the GBR
signals by an electrical circuit to achieve the white
balance that corresponds to the color temperature of
5600K.  When it is pressed, the B video signal is
attenuated by approximately -6 dB, the R video signal is
boosted by approximately 3 dB, and the G video signal is
not attenuated.  Select this switch when shooting under a
5600K light source or shooting outdoors.
