What the thread found

• Tally light integration between these devices requires obtaining the Cat 5 connector pinout from Transvideo and matching it with the MK-V tally specifications, which involves closing a circuit rather than complex signal translation
• The MK-V Genesis outputs tally signals through a 3-pin Lemo connector with ground on pin 1, tally signal on pin 2, and 12 volt power for photocell on pin 3
• Custom tally cables have been successfully made by other users connecting MK-V devices to external monitors via Cat 5 cabling

Depends on

• The specific Transvideo Cat 5 pinout configuration is not provided in this discussion
• Only one anecdotal example of a successful cable implementation is mentioned without detailed documentation
• The discussion does not confirm whether off-the-shelf cable solutions exist
