VDIAG button

When this button is pressed, the VTR information is displayed.

When it is pressed again, the original display is restored.

The VTR information consists of the “WARNING” information, “HOURS METER” information and “UMID” information.

Switching between the display of each type of information is accomplished by pressing the search button.

Displayed on the “WARNING” screen are details of the warnings.

Displayed on the “HOURS METER” screen are the deck’s serial number, power-on time, drum rotation time, tape travel time, number of times a cassette has been loaded, number of times the power has been turned on and off, and so on.

Displayed on the “UMID INFO” screen are details of the UMID (Unique Material Identifier) information.

WSUPER switch ON:

The superimposed time code and other information is output to the VIDEO OUT 3 connector.

<Note>

By installing the SDI board (AJ-YA755G, available as an optional accessory) in the VTR, the superimposed information is also output to the SDI OUT 3 connector.

OFF:

The superimposed information is not output.

XREC INH switch

This switch is used to enable or disable recording on the cassette tape.

ON:

Recording on the cassette tape is disabled (inhibited).

In this state, the REC INH lamp lights on the display panel.

OFF:

Recording on the cassette tape is enabled so long as the accidental erasure prevention mechanism on the cassette tape is set to enable recording.

YTCG switch

REGEN:

The internal time code generator is synchronized with the time code which the time code reader has read from the tape.

The signal that is to be used for regeneration is selected using setup menu No. 503 (TCG REGEN).

PRESET:

The time code generator can be preset on the operation panel or by remote control.

EXT:

The external time code which is input from the time code input connector or video signal VITC is used. Which of the two is to be set is selected using setup menu No. 505 (EXT TC SEL).

ZMODE switch

<In the stop mode> TAPE:

The signal which is played back from the tape is output.

EE:

The input signal selected by the INPUT SELECT button is output.

<During recording or editing> TAPE:

The simultaneous playback signals are output. (The setup menu No.310 (CONFI EDIT) setting is necessary.)

EE:

The input signal selected by the INPUT SELECT button is output.

[CONTROL switch

This switch is set to the REMOTE or LOCAL position when the VTR is to be controlled by an external unit using the REMOTE, RS-232C or PARALLEL connector.

REMOTE:

Set the switch to this position to control the VTR using a component that has been connected using the 9-pin REMOTE, RS-232C or PARALLEL connector.

LOCAL:

Set the switch to this position to control the VTR using its operation panel.

When the unit is to be controlled with the switch at this position by a component connected using the PARALLEL connector, selection can be made using setup menu No. 211 (LOCAL 25P).
