HelixNet: What are the pin outs for the Helixnet Remote station HRM-4X 4-wire in / out connectors?
Question: Can I get information on how the 4-wire connectors work on the HelixNet HRM-4X? I am hoping to use those to connect broadcast camera CCUs to HelixNet Comm with out having to put another full power supply in the rack.
Answer: Yes 4wire connections on the Helixnet Remote station can be connected to a 4wire CCU unit
The Program In / 4-wire input and SA out / 4-wire output 3-pin XLRs can support balanced line level audio to a camera CCU. The pin outs are shown below:

Program Audio will appear on PGM for the HRM-4X locally. The audio can be assigned to a channel and shared to other stations with the same channel assigned (controlled by PGM volume control).
In the Roles section of the CCM, select a HRM-4X Role. Under Program Input, use Channel Assignment to share the audio with the selected channel.
SA / 4W line out audio can be assigned to a channel.
In the Roles section of the CCM, select a HRM-4X Role. Under Stage Announce, set the Mode to Channel Assign and select a channel. All audio on the selected channel will be output from the HRM units SA out connector.
