ANALOG COMPOSITE VIDEO OUT connectorsThe analog composite video signals are output through these connectors. They are output during DVCPRO50M, 25M, DV or DVCAM interchangeable playback or when signals are
Video signals containing superimposed information can be output through the VIDEO OUT 3 connector. Whether the superimposing is to be set ON or OFF is selected using the setup menu item No.005 (SUPER).
HD/SD REF IN connector and 75 h terminal switchThese are the input connectors for the HD/SD reference video signals and the

zTo use the connector as the HD reference, input the positive- negative bipolar
zTo use the connector as the SD reference, input black burst signals must comply with SMPTE170M and
IEEE1394 digital input/outputThe IEEE1394 digital interface is available for input and output. Use a
<Notes>
zEnsure that the connections with other devices are made on a 1:1 basis.
zWhen an IEEE1394 cable has been connected to the IEEE1394 digital input/output connector, do not apply any strong external force as this may damage the connector.
zWhen error code
zThe AV signals may be disrupted when the power of the connected devices is turned on or off and when the 1394 cable is connected or disconnected.
zWhen the input signals are switched or the mode is transferred, it may take a few seconds for the system to stabilize. Proceed with the recording operation only after the system has stabilized.
zThe following situation applies when recording is to be performed by selecting the IEEE1394 digital interface input, and it applies with the signals which are output by the IEEE1394 digital interface.
When playback signals other than regular 1a speed playback signals have been input, no guarantees are made for the pictures and sound which will be recorded or for the
zThe following situation applies when the video input selection has been set as the IEEE1394 digital interface.
The SDI signals, the analog video output signals and time code output signals become irregular in the EE mode. Do not use these signals for recording purposes. (The teletext signals and other signals superimposed onto the video output signals also become irregular.)
zDuring SLOW/STILL playback, unprocessed video and audio signals are output as the IEEE1394 digital interface output. When these video and audio signals are monitored using another device, they may differ from the video and audio signals played back by this unit. When the equipment for
Be absolutely sure to bear the following points in mind when connecting the IEEE1394 cable.
zEnsure that the unit and all of the connected devices are each grounded (or connected to a common ground) before use. If it is not possible to ground the unit and devices, turn off the power of the unit and of all the connected devices before connecting or disconnecting the IEEE1394 cable.

DIGITAL AUDIO IN and OUT connectorsThese are the input and output connectors of the digital audio signals that comply with the AES/EBU standards.
Remote control connectorsThe unit can be operated externally by connecting two units or an external controller to one unit.
Two remote control connectors are provided: one for IN/ OUT uses and the other for OUT uses only.
IN/OUT: For connection with an external controller For connection during
OUT: For connection during parallel run operations For
ENCODER REMOTE connectorAn external encoder remote controller is connected to this connector when the video output signal settings are to be adjusted from an external component.
Data communication is available by connecting the unit to a personal computer.
PARALLEL REMOTE connectorThe unit can be operated externally with the
