Notes

In preread editing, if an input video signal is used as the reference signal for the output video signal, this forms a feedback loop. To prevent the occurrence of feedback, set the F2 (OUTREF)(see page 9-7)in function menu page 4 to REF, and set item 309 in the extended setup menu to AUTO1 (see page 10-15)so as to use an external reference signal.

When the preread mode is selected, to prevent feedback due to the loop connection, whatever the editing mode of this unit, no E-E video output is available.

When the PREREAD is set to OFF after preread editing, however, if the loop connection remains and an E-E signal is output, feedback will occur.

To prevent this, select PB mode for the video and digital audio channels in all the modes before the preread editing, as follows.

1 Set F2 (PB/EE) in function menu HOME page to PB.

2 Set the F6 (PREREAD)(see page 9-7)in function menu page 4 to ON.

3 Make the necessary connections for the preread editing.

4 After selecting the desired insert editing mode, carry out the preread editing.

5 When the preread editing is completed, remove the connections.

6 Set the PREREAD to OFF.

7 Check that no loop connection remains.
