Item Function/Setting (bold characters indicate initial settings)
1394 REC TRIGGER* Sets how to control the REC trigger command output from the IEEE1394 connector. (Can be displayed and set in
camera mode)
Set this when recording a backup of the DV signal from this camcorder onto another device.
OFF : Does not control the backup device.
SYNCRO : Controls the backup device in conjunction with the recording start/stop mode status on the camcorder,
and if there is no videocassette or if no tape remains for recording, controls the backup device in con-
junction with the REC trigger button and the lens VTR button on the camcorder.
SPLIT : The REC trigger button on the right panel of the cam corder controls the backup device recording start/
stop. Set this when you want to control the timing of the recording on the camcorder and the backup
device separately.
SERIES : Automatically starts recording on a backup device that is on Pause when the tape on the camcorder has
less than 3 minutes remaining during shooting.
MEMO
• If you use the backup recording function on the BR-HD50, set this item to OFF.
• The cursor (K) does not move to this item when the camcorder is recording.
BACK SPACE [HDV]* Th is function controls the camera tape transport, back space and pre-roll time when the camera is connected to an
external HDD or external back up Recorder via IEEE1394 in HDV mode.
P-1394 : Priority for IEEE1394 reco rding (Auto setting)
P-TAPE : Priority for camera VCR recording

Note 1:

REC start signal will be sent 3 seconds after pressing REC trigger button.
* Actual recording start time is depending on recorder performance.

Note 2:

REC start signal will be sent just after pressing REC trigger button.
* Actual recording start time is depending on recorder performance.

Note 3:

In this mode, the IEEE1394 stream is discontinuous during internal VCR back space editing (when the REC trigger
is operated). This may result in breaks in the recording on tape on an external recorder. In the case of HDD recording
this may result in the unit staying in REC PAUSE or divided files.
