Function of the REC button when the remote control unit is connected

You can select the function of the REC button on the camcorder when the remote control unit is connected, using the RM REC START item on the FUNCTION 3 page of the MAINTENANCE menu.

To disable the camcorder REC button and the lens VTR button

On the FUNCTION 3 page of the MAINTENANCE menu, set RM REC START to RM.

If the REC SWITCH function is assigned to the ASSIGN switch, this setting also disables these controls.

To enable the camcorder REC button and the lens VTR button

On the FUNCTION 3 page of the MAINTENANCE menu, set RM REC START to CAM.

If the REC SWITCH function is assigned to the ASSIGN switch, this setting also enables these controls. In this case, the VTR button on the remote control unit is disabled.

To enable all of the camcorder REC button, the lens VTR button, and the remote control unit VTR button

On the FUNCTION 3 page of the MAINTENANCE menu, set RM REC START to PARA.

If the REC SWITCH function is assigned to the ASSIGN switch, this setting also enables these controls.

When the monitor is connected to the remote control unit

The MONITOR connector (BNC type) of the RM-B150/ B750 outputs the same signal as that from the MONITOR OUT connector on the camcorder.

Use the black cable supplied with the RM-B150/B750 to connect the monitor to the MONITOR connector on the RM-B150/B750.

When the remote control unit is disconnected from the camcorder

The camcorder settings return to the settings in effect before the remote control unit was connected.

By making a menu setting, the setting of the paint adjustment made with the remote control unit can be retained even after the remote control unit is removed from the camcorder.

For details, see “To use settings of the paint adjustment data stored in the “independent data region” even when a remote control unit is connected” on page 40.

Structure of the paint adjustment data

The non-volatile memory of the camcorder used for storing paint adjustment data consists of two regions as shown below: one is the “independent data region” that is used when a remote control unit is not connected, and the other is the “remote control data region” that is used when a remote control unit is connected. Paint adjustment data is automatically selected and output to the camcorder depending on whether or not a remote control unit, such as an RM-B150, is connected.

Thus, when a remote control unit is connected to the camcorder, the effective data region is switched to the “remote control data region” and the settings of the paint adjustment that were in effect last time the remote control unit was used are recalled.

Settings of the absolute value volume 1) and absolute value switches 2) are overwritten by those on the remote control unit after the remote control unit is connected.

When the remote control unit is removed from the camcorder, the “independent data region” becomes effective. Thus the camcorder will return to the settings that were in effect before the remote control unit was connected.

1)Absolute value volume: The data corresponding to the rotation degree (position) of the volume knob is output. The data corresponding to the rotation amount (change) is called the relative value volume.

2)Absolute value switch: Toggle switches or slide switches (except the temporary switches) (or controls) whose positions must coincide with their functions are called absolute value switches.
