Accommodates 5 VTRs, Event Memory, GPI Ports

AG-	Multi-Event Editing Controller

nAccommodates 5 VTRs

The AG-A850 is equipped with 5 RS-422 (9-pin) remote terminals for connection with VTRs. When you connect 4 players and 1 recorder, the AG-A850 allows control of 2 players as source machines. (Any of the connected VTRs can serve as the recording source, with selection made at the control panel.) When 2 players and 3 recorders are connected, all 3 recorders can be controlled, allowing simultaneous

nproduction of three tapes.

512-Event Memory

Thanks to a multi-event memory that stores up to 512 events, a program with many cuts can be automatically and continuously

nedited. For convenience, the data is held in memory for 3 days.

2 Jog & Shuttle Dials, 10 Key Control

Two sets of Jog and Shuttle dials assure excellent control, while a 10- key pads adds convenience when entering edit points. The AG-A850 can be used with a variety of systems, from ENG editing to program

nproduction.

GPI Ports

The AG-A850 provides two GPI ports (pin-jack), one of which can be set for two operations in one event to allow control of a CD, DVE or

ncharacter- generator device that has a GPI input terminal.
