Connecting to Audio Equipment

NOTE

Only DVC-SD signals can be input from the DV IN/OUT terminal of this recorder.

There are some digital camcorders that cannot be operated with the remote control of this recorder even if “DV LINK” is set to “ON”. Set “DV LINK” to “OFF” when this happens (page 90).

When connecting a digital camcorder to this recorder, set the power switch of the digital camcorder to “Playback (Video)” and press STOP. If the camcorder is connected with the power switch set to “RECORD (Camera)” or while it is playing back, DV Link will not function properly.

This recorder cannot be controlled from the outside using the DV IN/OUT terminal.

When two of these recorders are connected using the DV IN/OUT jack, one cannot be used to control the other.

Date and time data as well as the contents of cassette memory cannot be recorded.

Discs cannot be played back while “DV LINK” is set to “ON” during DV input. If you want to play back a disc, set “DV LINK” to “OFF” after recording is finished.

Recording with a Digital Camcorder

When playback is started with this recorder after the channel has been set to a channel other than DV, the DV IN/ OUT terminal functions as an external input jack. (When DV input has been selected, there is no signal output from the DV IN/OUT terminal.)

NOTE

Images protected with a copy guard are not output to the DV IN/OUT terminal.

Video and audio signals of protected material or “copy- once” material cannot be output.

When disc information (page 28) is displayed, that information is also displayed on images output from the digital camcorder. Turn off the display of disc information when recording images output from the DV IN/OUT terminal with a digital camcorder.

The DV IN/OUT terminal of this recorder functions as a connection terminal for digital camcorders. Images may not be able to be taken up or output properly if other equipment (such as PC) is connected to this terminal.

Since recording is performed in 30 seconds units (1 minute units in the LP mode) when recording in the Video mode, recording may continue briefly after it is finished.

The DV output cannot be used during progressive playback (page 80).

This recorder is only able to output 16-bit audio.

Important!

Proper images may not be recorded when any of the following occur during DV uptake.

When the digital camcorder plays back a portion where nothing is recorded

When the DV cable is disconnected or the camcorder power is turned off during recording

When playback from the camcorder is stopped
