2Audio level meter

The audio information is displayed here.

•The levels of the CH1, CH2, CH3, CH4, CH5, CH6, CH7 and CH8 PCM audio signals and level of the CUE track signal are displayed here.

•The levels of the input signals are displayed during recording and when E-E is selected. During playback, the levels of the playback signals are displayed. In the INPUT CHECK status, the levels of the input signals are displayed for CH1 to CH8.

•Input signal display for each of the channels

The indicators for the selected input signals light. (SDI lights when the SD SDI input signal is selected.)

If an input signal has been selected but it has not actually been input,the AES, HDSDI, SDI or SDTI indicator will blink if a signal corresponding to one of these indicators was selected whereas the ANA indicator will remain lighted if it was an ANA signal that was selected.

When the internal signal (INT SG) has been selected, all the AES, ANA, HDSDI, SDI and SDTI indicators light.

All the indicator are off in the 23/24 Hz mode or 25 Hz (HD or SD) mode. Input signal display

3Cassette insertion slot

If the slot’s orange plate is visible, it means that a cassette tape is already inserted.

4EJECT button

When this button is pressed, the cassette is unloaded, and a few seconds later it is ejected automatically.

When CTL appears on the counter display, the display is reset.

5Headphones jack

The sound heard during recording, playback or editing can be monitored through headphones when stereo headphones are connected to this jack.

6Volume control dial

This control dial is used to adjust the volume level of the headphones and monitor output.

Whether the volume level of the monitor output is to be coupled together with that of the headphones to this dial or separated can be selected using the setup menu item No.712 (MONI OUT). (Note that the volume level of the headphones is coupled at all times.) When the volume levels have been separated, the UNITY value (prescribed value) applies to the monitor output.

7Channel condition lamps

These lamps light to indicate the error rate status.

(Green “ amber “ red)

Green: This lights when the error rates for the video and audio playback signals are both at acceptable levels.

Amber: This lights when the error rate for either the video or audio playback signals has deteriorated. The playback picture and sound remain unaffected even while this lamp is lighted.

Red: This lights when correction or interpolation has been engaged for either the video or audio playback signals.
