MEMO

•Switch the IEEE1394 switch when this device is OFF.

•When you dub still images, they are low resolution images. Noise may also enter the audio.

•Operations may differ depending on the features and specifications of the connected device, and operations or data exchange may not be possible even if the devices are connected.

•If noise appears on the screen or the audio cuts out, re- connect the IEEE1394 cable or turn the GY-HD250/GY- HD251 on again.

•If you turn the power to the device connected to the IEEE1394 connector on and off or switch the video input, noise may occur in the audio. If you perform this type of operation, set the speaker volume as low as possible on the audio device connected to this device.

•Recording may not be possible in some cases even if the recorder is equipped with a IEEE1394 connector.
