JVC DV GY550 CCU Cable settings?

I have three JVC 550's and one HD 250 using the RMP210 CCUs
One of our 550's is in the shop for repair and we borrowed one from a local cable company.
Exactly the same model JVC DV GY 550 but when connecting to the CCU, it gives message Unable to Initialize
and the image is present but greenish in color.

None of the controls are functional on the CCU and I can't find any way to make any changes.
Have checked the Camera and it seems to be all the same menu settings as our other 550's

I am thinking we have JVC cables and maybe the camera we borrowed has Sony cables.
I can't get in touch with the owner of the camera before Monday to confirm and we have a huge event
Sunday afternoon that I really would love to have this in service for.

1. Is there a setting on the GY550 for different 26 pin cable configurations
2. Is there a setting in the CCU for different 26 pin configurations.

If this is an easy fix, let me know, if not. Oh well I tried.
