4-1-5 Selecting the Monitoring Mode for Recording

This selection determines the way in which monitoring will be carried out during recording.

CONFI switch

Selecting the monitoring mode for recording

Use the CONFI switch on the connector panel to select the monitored signal.

To monitor the simultaneous playback of the recorded video and audio signals from the confidence heads, using a video monitor or other equipment connected to the VIDEO OUT connector, set the CONFI switch to the ON position.

To carry out error detection by means of ECC without direct monitoring of the recorded signals, set the CONFI switch to the ECC position. In this case the monitor output during recording is an E-E signal.

To carry out no direct monitoring of the recorded signals, and only RF envelope monitoring, set the CONFI switch to the OFF position.

The OFF setting results in the lowest power consumption, and the ON setting the highest. When using the unit with a battery pack, set the CONFI switch to the ECC or OFF position.
