REMOVING THE HDD: Slide the HDD release latch on the DR-DV5000 top plate toward the battery system. Once slid as far as possible, hold the latch while at the same time grasping the FSHDD-1 drive handle and pulling the HDD out from DR-DV5000.

GETTING STARTED

Once DR-DV5000 has been mounted to a camcorder, a power source has been provided and the FSHDD-1 FireWire HDD has been inserted, it is now possible to prepare DR- DV5000 for use. When powered up for the first time, the DR-DV5000 LCD will display “Welcome to DR-DV5000” and possibly “Please Wait...” depending on the disk drive being used.

If a FSHDD-1 FireWire HDD comes from the factory, it should be configured and ready to use. If the message “No Disk Detected” appears, ensure you have a FSHDD-1 FireWire HDD inserted properly. If the message “No Format Detected” appears, you will first need to partition and format the inserted drive. DR-DV5000 will prompt you through the steps required to perform a format. WARNING: Formatting will erase all data on disk!

Once ready for use, the DR-DV5000 default Splash Screen will appear as follows:

Use the MENU and SOFT KEYS on the DR-DV5000 front panel to navigate and make changes in the menu system.

One of the first tasks to perform is to set the date and time in the DR-DV5000 Setup menu. This forms the basis of file naming.

DR-DV5000 Menus
