Insert the tape and set to STOP or REC PAUSE status.

„Operation

Start and stop of recording on the backup unit takes place in accordance with the operation of the REC/VTR trigger button on the master unit.

(Depending on the GY-HD100 or the backup unit, the image, audio, and/or time code may deviate from what they should be at the points where the recording is started or stopped.)

MEMO

When the backup recording is started, the “TRIGGER TO DV” or “TRIGGER TO HDV” indication is shown on the LCD or in the viewfinder for approx. 3 seconds.

When the Series Recording function of BR-HD50 is used, the GY-HD100’s 1394 REC TRIGGER item should be set to OFF.

If the backup device is equipped with a feature to record time codes input from the IEEE1394 connector (TC DUPLICATE feature), time code data the same as on the master side can be recorded.

When using BR-HD50 as a backup device and switching GY-HD100 from the playback mode to the record mode, noise will be noticed on the monitor output screen of BR- HD50 (backup will be correctly recorded).
