Wireless CCU to control shading and tally for Blackmagic URSA Mini, Blackmagic Broadcast G2, Studio and Microstudio cameras via SDI input from a Blackmagic Design ATEM switcher.
RX Vlock Camera unit:
The RX side is a Vlock unit that docks on the back of the Ursa camera, receives the wireless data from the TX side, converts it back into BMD control protocol, and outputs SDI for camera control on the SDI return feed.
- SDI control output for CCU and tally
- Vlock pass-through power to the camera
- OLED for menu settings
- Tally via internal LED and external 3.5 mm output for tally light, also embedded into SDI for in-camera tally
- Weighs only 550 grams
TX Transmitter unit:
The TX side has an SDI input which accepts up to 3G-SDI program signal from the ATEM. It internally extracts the CCU control data for the chosen Camera ID and converts ..

- SDI input from ATEM
- SDI loop output
- Powered from 5V USB-C
- OLED for menu settings
- Tally indicator
Details:
The transmitter reads the SDI ancillary data for camera control and tally, selects the data for the chosen Camera ID, and converts it to our wireless CCU protocol. Connect the output to the SDI IN of the camera and it will be controlled wirelessly from the Blackmagic ATEM.
On the transmitter you can configure the Camera ID to listen to and the wireless communication channel for the WRCU.
- The transmitter has an SDI loop output to send data to the next unit or a monitor.
- Ethernet and Hirose connectors are reserved for future functionality.
- The unit is powered by a 12V 1A power supply (not supplied) compatible with BMD mini converters, or via USB-C 5V 1A which also supports future firmware upgrades.
The Vlock receiver passes power from the battery to the camera.
- USB-C is reserved for future firmware updates.
- Ethernet and Hirose connectors are reserved for future functionality.
- 3.5 mm jack is an external tally output designed for use with the Datavideo TD-3 tally light (not supplied, optional).
What’s included in the box:
- RX Vlock receiver for Blackmagic URSA with SDI out for camera control
- TX transmitter unit with SDI input from Blackmagic ATEM, aluminum housing or Vlock mount (depending on chosen model)
- 2 antennas (2400 MHz)
- 1 double right-angle BNC cable for SDI control signal to Blackmagic URSA
- USB-C cable for software updates
- No power supply included due to different global standards. A BMD 12V 1A power supply works, or a 5V 1A USB phone charger or USB outlet can be used with the USB-C input
