1PGM OUT (program output) connectors These output the final program output, that is, the video to which effects have been applied. Connect to VTR (recorder) and program monitor video input connectors. The following four types of output are provided, each with two channels (1 and 2).

SDI (BNC): Output serial digital signals (270 MHz).

COMPOSITE (BNC): Output composite video signals.

COMPONENT (BNC): Output Betacam format component video signals (Y, R–Y, B–Y).

S VIDEO (4-pin):Output S-video (Y/C separation) signals.

You can use all four formats simultaneously. The same signals are output from connectors 1 and 2.

2VIDEO INPUT connectors

These input video camera and VTR (player) video signals. The connectors are in four groups, as follows.

•SDI INPUT 1 to 4, (OPTION) 5 to 8 (BNC)

•COMPONENT 5/1, 6/2, 7/3, 8/4 (BNC)

•COMPONENT/COMPOSITE (OPTION) 5 to 8 (BNC)

•S VIDEO (OPTION) 5 to 8 (4-pin)

SDI INPUT 1 to 4, (OPTION) 5 to 8 (BNC-type)

Input serial digital signals (270 MHz).

Connectors 5 to 8 can only be used when the optional BKDF-701 SDI and Component Input Board is installed.

The input signals to these connectors must be synchronized to this unit.

COMPONENT 5/1, 6/2, 7/3, 8/4 (BNC-type)Input Betacam format component video signals.

Y:Input the luminance (Y) signal.

R–Y:Input the R–Y color difference signal.

B–Y:Input the B–Y color difference signal. The input signals to these connectors must be synchronized to this unit. Therefore, when inputing from a VTR, the signal must come through a time base corrector.

The 8/4 column of connectors can be changed to RGB input connectors by a setup menu operation. In this case, connect G (with sync), R, and B signals to Y, R– Y, and B–Y respectively.

When the optional BKDF-702/702P Y/C and Composite Input Board is installed, you can select in the setup menu whether to use the 5/1, 6/2, 7/3, and 8/4 connectors for component inputs 5 to 8 or component inputs 1 to 4.

COMPONENT/COMPOSITE (OPTION) 5 to 8 (BNC-type)

These connectors can be used by installing either of the optional BKDF-701 and BKDF-702/702P boards. When the BKDF-701 board is installed, connect Betacam format component video signals. When the BKDF-702/702P board is installed, connect composite video signals. The signals can be input from a VTR with no time base corrector. When using the BKDF- 701 to input signals from a VTR, they must come through a time base corrector.

S VIDEO (OPTION) 5 to 8 (4-pin)

Input S-video (Y/C separation) signals. These connectors can only be used when the optional BKDF- 702/702P board is installed. The signals can be input from a VTR with no time base corrector.

3EDITOR connector (9-pin)

Use this connector when controlling this unit with an editor (PVE-500, BVE-2000 series, or other editing control unit). Using an optional 9-pin remote control cable, connect to the 9-pin control connector of the editor.

4PANEL connector (25-pin)

With the supplied 25-pin control cable, connect to the 25-pin connector of the control panel.

5TALLY connector (25-pin)

Tally signals are output from this connector when the signal input to a VIDEO INPUT connector is selected on the control panel. Connect to the input signal sources (video cameras etc.). The outputs are relay contact signals, with a capacity of 200 mA / 30 V.

6TERMINAL connector (USB type B) This is a USB interface connector. Use it when connecting to a computer for a software version upgrade.
