2-3 Connector Panel!¢ AUDIO INPUT LEVEL/600Ω termination switches

The termination switches should be set for in ANALOG AUDIO INPUT connector according to the audio input level and input impedance.

Use OFF for low input levels when:

Audio input level is –60 dBu (microphone input) and audio input impedance is high (approximately 20 kΩ )

Use OFF for high input levels when:

Audio input level is +4 dBu (line input) and audio input impedance is high (approximately 20 kΩ )

Use ON for high input levels when:Audio input level is +4 dBm (line input) and audio input impedance is 600Ω!∞ ANALOG AUDIO INPUT connectors (XLR-3-32)Accepts up to five analog audio signal lines (channels 1 to 4 and cue).!§ ANALOG AUDIO OUTPUT connectors (XLR-3-31)Outputs up to five analog audio signal lines (channels 1 to 4 and cue).

!¶ CONTROL PANEL connector (15-pin) Connects the control panel through the 15-pin cable when using the control panel is used as a remote controller.

!• REMOTE1-IN (9P)/OUT (9P) connectors (D-sub 9-pin)

Used with the included 9pin remote control cable to connect two HDW-F500 VTRs, or a second HD VTR when a BVE900/910/2000/9000/9100 series BVE Editing Control Unit is used for editing. Used when you edit using two VTRs and the BVE-900/910/2000/ 9000/9100 Editing Control Unit. The REMOTE1-IN and OUT connectors can be used to make a bridge connection.

!ª MONITOR OUTPUT connectors (XLR-3-31) Outputs signals for audio monitoring. These connectors output two signal lines: L and R. Select the signals to be output with the MONITOR SELECT buttons and the AUDIO INPUT/MONITOR SELECT buttons on the upper control panel. A setting can be made so that volume can be controlled with the PHONES volume knob.

For details, see Section 5-1-2, “Selecting Audio Signals”on page 5-2.

@º VIDEO CONTROL (Digital Video ProcessorControl) connector (D-sub 9-pin)

Connects to the optional HKDV-503 HD Digital Video Controller to enable remote control of the internal digital video processor. Turn off the power before connecting the remote controller.

@¡ RS-232C connector (RS-232C serial interface) (D-sub 25-pin)

Receives or transmits RS-232C serial remote control signals and/or VTR status data from/to external equipment. When this connector is being used for communication, the RS-232C indicator on the upper control panel will be lit.

@™ PARALLEL I/O (50P) connector (D-sub 50-pin, with optional BKDW-509)Inputs an external remote control signal.

For details, refer to the Maintenance Manual.

@£ D CONV. SDI (D1/D2 SDI video/audio) (OPTION) OUT connectors (BNC)

Outputs up to three sets of video/audio signals. When the ALT/[F8] (CHARA SUPER) key of the TC menu is set to ON, text data such as time codes are superimposed on the output of connector 3 (SUPER). Selection of D1/D2 output is made using the [F9] (OTHERS CHECK)/[F9] (SYSTEM)/[F3] (D-CONV SDI) button in the MAINTENANCE menu.

Note

This connector is operative only when the optional HKDV-501A HD-SD Converter Board is installed.

@¢ PULL DOWN OUT (OPTION) connectors (BNC)

Outputs two sets of 2-3 pull down video/audio signals. When the ALT/[F5] (PD CHARA) key of the TC menu is set to ON, text data such as time codes are superimposed.

Note

This connector is operative only when the optional HKDV-507 HD PULL DOWN Board is installed.
