Digital Dubbing Using IEEE 1394 Jacks

When sending a digital signal from one DV device to another, there is little if any image or sound deterioration.

To Use This Camcorder as a Player:

1.Make sure the power of both camcorders is off.

2.Connect one end of the IEEE 1394 cable to each digital camcorder.

3.Press the camcorder’s Play/Pause Button ( / ) to start playback.

4.While watching the playback on the monitor, start the receiving camcorder’s record mode from the spot on the source tape you want to begin recording.

Notes:

It is recommended to use the AC adapter/ charger as the power supply instead of the battery pack for uniform playback.

For digital dubbing, this camcorder can be connected to only one device at a time. This camcorder can also be used as the recording camcorder.

If a blank portion or distorted image is played back during dubbing, the process may stop to avoid capturing problem images.

Even though the IEEE 1394 cable is connected correctly, sometimes the image may not appear during playback. If this occurs, turn off the power and make connections again.

When using an IEEE 1394 cable, be sure it has a core filter attached. The core filter reduces interference and is required to meet FCC standards.
