COMMON INTERFACE

The arrow on the cable connector body should be face down for correct align- ment with the connector on the recorder.

When connected to an HDMI component or HDCP-compatible DVI component, the HDMI indicator lights.

HDMI setup is generally automatic. There are however settings you can change if you need to. See HDMI Output (only available when an HDMI device is connected) on page 148 for more information. Note that the HDMI settings remain in effect until you change them, or connect a new HDMI component.

Important

An HDMI connection can only be made with DVI-equipped components compat- ible with both DVI and High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP). If you choose to connect to a DVI connector, you will need a DVI to HDMI adaptor cable. A DVI to HDCP connection, however, does not support audio. Consult your local audio dealer for more information.

The HDMI connection is compatible with 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 96 kHz, 16 bit/ 20 bit/24 bit 2-channel linear PCM signals, as well as Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG audio bitstream.

If your connected component is only compatible with Linear PCM, the signal is output as Linear PCM (DTS audio is not output).

If you have connected to a Pioneer plasma display, please select the HDMI setup on the display (refer to the supplied manual for more on this).

Note

1This unit has been designed to be compliant with HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) version 1.2a and HDCP version 1.1. Depending on the component you have connected, using a DVI connection may result in unreliable signal transfers.
