When using a DV cable, be sure to use the optional JVC VC-VDV206U or VC-VDV204U DV cable depend- ing on the type of DV connector (4 or 6 pins) on the PC.

The system may not work properly depending on the PC or capture board you are using.

When using the DV connection refer to manufacturer instructions of your capture board for driver’s installation and operation instructions.
