1Counter display section

Three types of indications can be displayed in the

counter display section.

(1) Tape counter

Normally, the indication selected with the [COUN-

TER] switch is shown. When the No. 516 <DISPLAY

SELECT> menu switch is set to “CLOCK”, the time

and date are shown.

 See “Built-in clock setting” on page 22.

(2) Menu switch

In the menu switch setting mode, menu switch items

are shown one at a time.

Menu switch No.

Setting

(3) Warning code

When this unit malfunctions, the nature of the

problem is indicated by an error code.

 See “Warning indicators” on page 40.

• In the Operate Off mode, “oPE-oFF” is shown.

Tape running indication

Shows the tape running conditions.

Battery indicator

When this unit is powered by a battery and the battery

voltage level drops below the specified value, this

indicator blinks (“off” in normal operation), to show that

battery voltage is insufficient. This indicator will also

blink when the Operate Off mode is engaged (since

4voltage output from the battery drops in this mode).

Cassette mark

This mark lights to show that a cassette is loaded.

This mark is shown even in the Operate Off mode.

5Indicators
AUTO OFF:		Lights when a problem occurs in this
		unit.
DEW:		Lights when a condensation occurs.
RF:		Lights when the heads are clogged and
		the signal level drops.
SERVO:		Lights when the unit’s servo system
		has stabilized.
AUD LOCK:		Lights when the video and audio
		sampling clocks (at 48 kHz) are
		synchronized in the Play mode. Lights
		in the Recording mode and EE mode.
		Does not light when the sampling rate
		is 32 kHz or 44.1 kHz.
MENU:		Lights in the menu switch setting mode.
32K/44.1K/48K: Shows the frequency of the digital
		audio signal sampling rate. In the
		Record and EE modes, the frequency
		set with No. 245 <SAMPLING RATE>
		menu switch is shown. In the Play
		mode, the playback audio signal mode
		is shown. The 44.1K indication is
		shown only in the Play mode.
PB:		Lights when playback signals are
		output.
NDF:		Lights when the non-drop mode is set
		for time code. (U MODEL)
DF:		Lights when the drop mode is set for
		time code. (U MODEL)
HOLD:		Lights in the time code or user bits
		setting mode and in the date and time
		setting mode.
SP/LP:		Shows the recording or playback
		speed. Please note that LP mode
		recording and playback is not possible
		with this unit.			If you try to play back a
		tape recorded in the LP mode, the “LP
		inh”	indication is shown and the VCR
6		enters the Stop mode.
Audio channel indication
Shows the audio channel of the signal output from the
rear panel’s [AUDIO OUT] connectors.
Indication and output signals can be switched with the
front panel’s [AUDIO OUTPUT] switch only when 32 kHz
sampling rate signals are played back.
In other modes, the indication and output signals are
fixed as shown in the table below.

Connecting video equipment
Connect the video device to the appropriate connector (4
types are available).

Digital video signal (conforming to IEEE 1394) :
[DV IN/OUT] connector
Note:

•When search pictures or low-quality video signals are input, temporary distortion of picture or sound may occur. Clean up the signals with a TBC or

other processing device before inputting.

Reference sync signal
This unit automatically selects the sync signal as shown in
the table below, depending on the presence of external sync
input (SYNC IN) and video input (VIDEO IN), the No. 003
<SYNC SELECT> menu switch setting and operation mode.
When IEEE 1394 input is selected, “INT” is selected
regardless of the setting. When the No. 108 <VIDEO
INPUT SELECT> menu switch is set to “COMPONENT”,
the operation is the same as that performed with the No.
003 <SYNC SELECT> menu switch set to “AUTO”
regardless of the setting.
SYNC IN			No	Yes	No	Yes
VIDEO IN			No	No	Yes	Yes
EXTERNAL		Playback	INT	EXT	INT	EXT
		Recording	INT	INT	VIDEO	VIDEO
AUTO		Playback	INT	EXT	VIDEO	EXT
		Recording	INT	INT	VIDEO	VIDEO
	INT: Internal sync		EXT: External sync		VIDEO: Video sync
	Notes:

•The phase of the output signal cannot be adjusted for external sync signals. The sub carrier cannot be locked.

•Plugging and unplugging the external sync or video signal connector during operation causes distortion in the picture and sound for about 10 seconds.

•When signals input from the composite connector are output from the component connector, color may disappear in some parts of the left section of the monitor screen. This is not a malfunction.

•The set up is not applied to signals input to the [DV IN/OUT] connector and output in EE mode (compo- nent, Y/C, composite). Input signals are recorded as is.

•Use a video signal of less than 1 V(p-p) such as a black burst signal for external sync signal.

•When video signals are input to the DV IN/OUT connector, distortion may occur in the lower section of the picture in the EE mode. However, recording is performed normally.

•When the No. 003 <SYNC SELECT> menu switch is set to “EXTERNAL” and no signal is input to the [SYNC IN] connector, noise may appear in the

playback picture. This is not a malfunction.
