is used, the built-in 75 termination switch turns off automatically.

The REF. VIDEO OUT connector outputs a reference video signal, except when i.LINK is selected in the INPUT SELECT section (see page 16).

eVIDEO OUT 1 and 2 (SUPER) connectors (BNC type)

These connectors output analog composite video signals. When the CHARA. DISPLAY menu item (see page 65) is set to ON (factory default setting), connector 2 (SUPER) outputs a signal with superimposed text information.

fS VIDEO OUT connector (4-pin)

This connector outputs an S-video signal with separated Y (luminance) and C (chroma: 3.58 MHz for DSR-1800A or 4.43 MHz for DSR-1800AP) components.

gCOMPONENT VIDEO OUT Y/RY/BY

connectors (BNC type)

These connectors output analog component video signals (Y/RY/BY).

hTIME CODE IN/OUT connectors (BNC type) Input SMPTE time code (for DSR-1800A) or EBU time code (for DSR-1800AP) externally generated to the IN connector.

The OUT connector outputs a time code according to the operating state of the unit, as follows:

During playback: the playback time code

During recording: the time code generated by the internal time code generator or the time code input to the TIME CODE IN connector. When the EE OUT PHASE menu item (see page 67) is set to MUTE, no time code is output.

Notes

When searching at speeds in the range +1/2 to +1/30 or 1/2 to 1/30 times normal speed, the audio signal output from this connector and monitored on external equipment may sound differently from the audio signal played back on this unit.

When you connect this unit to another device with a 6- pin DV connector, always power the other device off and unplug its power cord from the power output before connecting or disconnecting the i.LINK cable (DV cable). If you connect or disconnect the cable with the power cord still plugged in, power from the DV connector may flow into this unit, possibly damaging this unit.

When you connect this unit to another device with a 6- pin DV connector, make the connection to the 6-pin DV
