Using video synchronizer (hetron) with XTR Prod

Hi everyone,

 

I just bought hetron video synchronizer (vsf 151, pickup unit and sync/phase box) for quite cheap from ebay (from a reputable seller, luckily). You can use it to phase sync your camera to CRT displays.

 

The synchronizer came with a cable for an Arri SR3 (hetron 8 pin (Lemo) to Arri Fischer connector), but I'd like to use it with my XTR Prod. Now I'm wondering:

 

#1

where does it connect at the Aaton? The sub-d 9 pin plastic video sync connector or the Lemo 8 pin speed controller connector?

 

#2

what's the pinout of the 8 pin lemo connector at the hetron? Is it the same as with the XTRProd so I just can connect it one to one, or do some pins need to be re-routed? If someone knows the Pinout of the ARRI Fischer connector I can use that info to measure the cable using a multimeter and determine the pinout like that.

 

#3

Has anyone got a manual for the hetron, or ever used one?

 

Thanks,

Marc
