#8Time code buttons

These are used to set the TC or UB value.

SHIFT: When setting the TC or UB value, first press this button to stop the data running. Change the digit now flashing on the display.

Each time the button is pressed, the flashing moves to the right by one digit, and when it reaches the right-most digit, it returns to the left-most digit.

When it is kept depressed, the flashing moves consecutively.

ADJ: This is used to change the numeral of the digit now flashing on the display. When the button is pressed once, the number is incremented by 1, and when it is kept depressed, the number is incremented consecutively.

START: This enters the data which has been changed by the SHIFT and ADJ buttons. Also, Pressing this button when the TC or UB value are not set enables the TCG or UBG setting values to be confirmed.

RESET: When this button is pressed in the CTL mode, the display is reset to “00:00:00:00”. In the CTL mode, the entered edit points are cleared.

In the TC/UB mode, the generator is reset when the button is pressed together with the SHIFT button.

#9Warning lamp

This lights to warn the operator of a particular item.

$0Cassette insertion display lamp

This lights when a cassette has been inserted into the unit.

$1DVCPRO (25 Mbps) cassette playback display lamp

This lights when a cassette recorded in the DVCPRO (25 Mbps) is being played back.

$2SCH lamp

This lights when the SCH phase of the external sync signal (REF VIDEO) or composite input signal is within the designated range if the signal selected by the external synchroni- zation of the video output signals is an external sync signal or composite input signal. In the case of any other signal, it goes off.

$3CF lamp

This lights when the colour framing is locked.

$4Level meters

These indicate the respective levels of the PCM audio signals (CH1/CH2/CH3/CH4), CUE track signal or the video signal*. The audio signal indicates the input signal levels during recording and E-E selection, and the output signal levels during playback.

For video signal, the meters indicate the input signal levels only.

*CUE track signal or video signal is to be selected on setup menu No. 005 (METER SELECT).

$5Audio input/output level controls

These controls are used to adjust the recording and playback levels of the PCM audio signals (CH1/CH2/CH3/CH4) and the CUE track signal. The upper controls are for adjusting the recording levels. The lower controls are for adjusting the playback levels. Each control is a “pull for variable” control, meaning that the level can be adjusted only when the control has been pulled up. The signal levels are set to the unity value (preset value) when the controls have been pushed down.

$6Headphones jack

The sound being recorded, played back or edited can be monitored on stereo head- phones when they are connected to this jack.
