Connections

To digital video equipment with the DV jack

The video and audio signals are sent with hardly any degradation, enabling high-quality recording. The signal flow is automatically detected so you need not make separate connections for input and output.

Notes

The DV IN/OUT connector in the unit is a 6-pin type but does not provide power to external equipment.

With the DV connection, the data codes (recording date/time, camera data) recorded on the tape in the player will be transmitted to the unit. To display the same data code recorded on the source tape, set the DATA CODE on the DISPLAY SET menu to DATE or CAMERA, or press the DATA CODE button on the DSRM-20 remote control unit (not supplied) when you play back the recorded tape. However, the contents of the cassette memory are not transmitted. If you want to transmit the contents of the cassette memory, use the duplicate function.

For details on duplicate function, see “Duplication (generating a work tape with the same time code)” on page 70 (GB).

When no picture appears via the DV jack, disconnect, then reconnect the i.LINK cable (DV cable).
