Quickstart
ProHD DR-HD100 Portable DTE Recorder 27
Record With the DR-HD100 There are four modes of recording with the DR-HD100.
• Manual Recording
Control with the DR-HD100 transport buttons.
• JVC GY-HD
This recording mode is tailored for use with the companion,
JVC, GY-HD100/101. Set the JVC GY-HD100/101
camcorder’s 1394 REC TRIGGER to SYNCRO, SPLIT, or
SERIES to enable control of the DR-HD100.
• Syncro Slave
Use this mode with camcorders that do not have DR-HD100
compatible external control or tapeless trigger functionality.
In this mode, the DR-HD100 watches the record status of the
camcorder and replicates its actions. A tape must be in the
camcorder for this mode to function.
• External
Control recording with other camcorders that have
DR-HD100 compatible external control or tapeless trigger
capabilities.
Before beginning recording, verify that:
1. Time and date are set.
2. Recording format is set.
3. The DR-HD100 is connected to the video camera according
to the explanation in “Connecting a DR-HD100 to a DV/HD
Camcorder” on page 21.
4. Camera and DR-HD100 are powered on.
5. Tape is loaded in the camera.
External Control
If the camcorder supports an external control function, then tapeless
recording is possible. Otherwise, the DR-HD100 control panel keys
must be used to control recording in LOCAL control mode when there
is no tape in the camcorder.
