Parts and their functions (continued)

VIDEO OUT (1, 2, Y, PB, PR) connectors

By changing the menu item No.615 V OUT SEL setting, either analog composite signals or HD analog component Y signals are output from the VIDEO OUT1 connector.

Analog composite signals with superimposed information embedded can be output from the VIDEO OUT2 connector. Whether superimposed information is to be embedded in the signals is selected using menu item No.005

SUPER.

<Note>

When HD analog component output or HD SDI output signals are output with the 60 Hz or 24 Hz system frequency, the SD SDI signals will be output without the sync signals (NO SYNC), and the analog composite signals will be output in the black-and-white mode (burst OFF).

TC IN connector

This is used to record an external time code onto the tape.

TC OUT connector

This is used to output the playback time code during playback.

During recording, the time code generated by the internal time code generator is output from this connector.

HD/SD REF VIDEO IN connector and OUT connector

Input connector for the HD/SD reference video signal and loop through output connector.

<Notes>

zWhen inputting an HD reference signal to the connector, input a tri-level sync signal with positive and negative polarities. Also, supply signals matching the input signals and tape format.

zWhen inputting an SD reference signal to the connector, use a black burst signal which satisfy the SMPTE170M or ITU624-4 standard.

zIf no cable is connected to the REF VIDEO OUT connector, the REF VIDEO IN connector will be 75 h automatically. If the cable is connected, the 75 h connection is cancelled.

AUDIO IN connectors (CH1, CH2)

These are the input connectors for the analog audio signals.

AUDIO OUT/MONITOR connector (CH1, CH2, Lch, Rch)

These are the output connectors for the analog audio signals.

It is possible to interlock Lch/Rch to the volume control knob for headphones by adjusting menu No. 712 MONI OUT appropriately.

AUDIO MONITOR connectors

These are the audio monitor output connectors.These connectors output the monitor selection channels.

It is possible to interlock these connectors to the volume control knob for headphones by adjusting menu No. 712 MONI OUT appropriately.

REMOTE CONTROL connector

An external remote controller is connected here to enable the unit to be operated using an external device.

<Notes>

zSet the LOCAL/REMOTE switch to REMOTE.

zThe connector satisfies the RS-422A interface standard.

HD SERIAL COMPONENT AUDIO VIDEO IN/ OUT connector

These are input-output connectors for the HD digital component audio/video signal conforming to the SMPTE 292M, 296M or 299M standard.

SD SERIAL COMPONENT AUDIO VIDEO OUT connector

These are output connectors for the digital component audio/video signal conforming to the SMPTE 259M-C, 272M-A standard.

They are output during DVCPRO50, DVCPRO, DV or DVCAM interchangeable playback or when signals are down-converted and output.

<Note>

When in 23.98/24 Hz mode, SD SDI output, the system phase of analog composite video output may change to match the phase of HD SDI output when tape speed is at the standard rate.
