the RM-P9 or the TEST OUT connector of the camcorder.

 

 

 

 

Canceling the settings/resetting to the initial settings: It is possible to use the spare switch on the RM-P9 to cancel a setting (CANCEL) or reset it to its initial value (PRESET). Press the switch to the bottom position to cancel and the top position to reset to the initial value.

When the RM-P9 is connected to the camcorder, the automatic white balance and R/B GAIN painting data set with the RM-P9 are saved in a special memory within the camcorder. When the RM-P9 is disconnected, these settings revert to the values last set on the camcorder. If you set the SW2-4 switch on the RM-P9 to ON, the data set with the RM-P9 in the camcorder’s memory are maintained as long as the camcorder is turned on.
