DVD Multitrack Recorder DV824

About this manual

This manual intends to be used as a guide for using the Fostex DV824 DVD multitrack recorder.

This manual is written assuming that you have experience of using pro- fessional digital recorders and basic knowledge of digital recording.

By reading "Chapter 1: Introduction" and "Chapter 3: Names and functions", you may roughly understand the outline of the DV824 and how to use the DV824.

Chapter 3 can be used as the index because we not only briefly describe functions of each control but also show the page where details are de- scribed.

"Chapter 2: Preparation before using the DV824" describes information for using the DV824 for the first time, such as power connection and initial formatting of the supplied DVD-RAM disk.

Precautions

For supplying the power to the unit, only use the Fostex Model AD-15C adaptor (the AD15C is supplied with the unit).

If you use any other AC adaptor, the unit may not work correctly and there is a serious risk of damage to the unit.

Make sure that the voltage of your AC power outlet matches the voltage requirements printed on the AC adaptor.

If you wish to use the unit in a country where the voltage of the AC power outlet does not match your AC adaptor, ask your local Fostex dealer or service station for purchasing an appropriate AC adaptor.

Note that the AC adaptor can be used both in 50 Hz and 60 Hz areas.

Never supply voltage other than DC12V to the unit.

When disconnecting the AC adaptor, make sure that the unit [POWER] switch is set to "OFF".

Disconnecting the AC adaptor while the power is "ON" may damage data because the unit always handles data.

While the unit is accessing to a disk (for example, during recording), never turn off the power. Make sure that the unit completely stops accessing to the disk before you turn off the power. Otherwise, recorded data may be lost, as well as the disk may be damaged.

<Note>: Note that Fostex assumes no responsibility on data loss or whatso- ever due to use of the unit.

<Note>: Fostex is not responsible for any "direct damage" or "indirect dam- age" caused by using the unit.

Do not let water or other liquid, or metal objects such as pins, accidentally enter the inside of the unit (especially inside of the disk tray) because this may lead to electric shock or damage. Should water enter the inside of the unit, turn off the power, unplug the AC adaptor and remove batteries, and consult your dealer or the nearest FOSTEX service station.
