Parts of Function and Location 2 Chapter

1RFU OUT connector

This outputs video and audio signals and a power supply to an RF modulator such as an RFU-95UC. Connect to the input connector of the RF modulator.

2EXT (external) DC SELECT switch

This selects the way in which the external power supply (to the DC IN 12V connector) is used.

AUTO: The external power supply is normally used, but if the voltage drops, the unit switches automatically to the internal battery pack.

FIX: The external power supply is always used.

3REMOTE connector (9-pin)

Connect to an external device to remote-control the unit, as required.

4DC OUT connector

Connect the DC power cable of the BVR-3 Remote Controller. This provides a 12 V DC power supply to the remote controller.

5DC IN 12V connector (XLR 4-pin, male)

When using an AC-550/550CE AC Adaptor to connect to an AC power supply, connect the DC cable of the adaptor to this connector.

6BREAKER button

If an excess current flows within the unit, the breaker operates to shut off the power, and this button jumps out.

Check the internal circuitry of the unit, and check that there is no persisting fault. Then press in this button. If the system is able to operate normally, the power will be restored.

7MODE switch

This controls the operating mode, making it possible to control the power consumption.

SAVE: The power consumption is considerably reduced. Use this mode when operating with a battery pack.

PB/EE: When the tape is stopped, and while fast forwarding and rewinding, signals are output in E- E mode.

PB: Even when the tape is stopped, and during fast forward and rewind operations, the video and audio signals recorded on the tape are output.

8Battery pack compartment

Insert the battery pack (BP-90A or BP-L60). The battery pack compartment is behind the cover on the opposite side from the connector panel.
