Sending (DUMP) and loading (LOAD) edit data to an external component

Concerning the EDL format

Either the AG-A850 format or CMX340 format can be selected as the data format when edit data is to be sent to a personal computer or other external component.

Select the format using the setup menu item No.271 (EDL FORMAT).

$ AG-A850 format

Since all the edit data in the EDL memory is sent in this format, the edit data can be completely restored when data which was sent from the unit is loaded again into the unit. However, if data which was prepared with ON selected as the setup menu item No.374 (EDL AUTO CLR) setting is to be loaded, it must be received at the same ON setting.

Since the nature of the EDL format makes it impossible to differentiate between audio split data and video split data in split edited data, the AUDIO SPLIT setting is what is normally used for such data.
