USB 2.0 Host Function Allows Use of a Hard Drive
The AJ-HPM100 is equipped with a USB 2.0 interface for host/device. In host mode, you can connect a hard disk drive and read and write P2 files. In device mode, you can connect a PC (or nonlinear editor) and use the AJ-HPM100 as a P2 card drive for direct transfer of P2 clips into nonlinear editing software.
Rugged Casing
With its rugged casing and magnesium die-cast frame, the AJ-HPM100 is tough enough for go-anywhere field broadcast use. The rear connector section is protected by a cover. With the editing panel closed,
the AJ-HPM100 is the size of a large briefcase and comes equipped with a metal handle for easy carrying. You can take it onboard an airplane as a carry-on.
IEEE 1394 Digital Interface
An IEEE 1394 digital interface comes standard on the AJ-HPM100. Connect a DVCPRO HD camera- recorder/VTR or FOCUS FireStore, and the AJ-HPM100 can input or output a DVCPRO-compressed stream with no image degradation. This lets you
extended the AJ-HPM100’s recording and backup capabilities.
AC/DC
The versatile AJ-HPM100 runs on either AC or 12V DC. Plug it in and you have an outstanding desktop recorder, or take the AJ-HPM100 outside and mount it in an OB van or carry it right into the field.
HD-SDI Input/Output
With an HD-SDI interface that allows easy HD-SDI input/output and SD- SDI output, the AJ-HPM100 is ideal for use in an HD broadcasting system. Use the AJ-HPM100 for line recording, in-studio production, data transmission and more. A switch on the front panel lets you select the HD-SDI or IEEE 1394 interface for the input signal.
Analog Input/Output and RS-422A Remote In
Analog I/O: Composite In, HD Component Out/Composite Out (shared), Composite Monitor OUT, Audio In/Out (4 channels), and Audio Monitor Out (2 channels)
RS-422A Remote In: Lets you control the AJ-HPM100 via an external controller for editing applications.
TC In/Out: The AJ-HPM100 has a built-in time code generator/reader.
SD Memory Card Slot
The AJ-HPM100 has an SD Memory Card slot. By using the P2 viewer software, you can create a metadata upload file containing the names of the camera operator and reporter, the shooting location and other text information, and save it onto an SD Memory Card. The AJ-HPM100 can then read the information as metadata.
Menu Setting and User File
Using the crosshair cursor buttons or jog dial, it's easy to select menu items and make settings on the LCD monitor. A
user file containing up to five groups of settings can be saved or loaded. You can
assign frequently used menu items to the three PF keys, then select them instantly with the touch of a finger.
