Series Recording

Long recording can be performed by switching multiple HSR-1/1P/2/2P units connected in series.

Requirements for series recording

To activate series recording, it is necessary to connect multiple HSR-1/1P/2/2P units in series and specify the series recording signal.

For connections, see Chapter 5 “Connections and Preparations.”

Assigning the series recording signal

Assign the series recording signal to either input and output pins of the PARALLEL I/O connector on the rear panel of each HSR-1/1P/2/2P unit.

By transmitting the series recording signal via the connectors, recording is relayed to the subsequent HSR-1/1P/2/2P units.

The signal assignment is made from the Remote Control menu.

Once you assign the signal, it is not necessary to set it again unless it needs be changed.

For the Remote Control Menu, see Chapter 4 “Menu Operations.”

To activate series recording

1 Turn on the power and insert a cassette in to each HSR-1/1P/2/2P.

2 Press the REC key on the first HSR-1/1P/2/2P.

Recording starts on the first HSR-1/1P/2/2P.

When the remaining time of the tape is near 2 minutes, the first HSR-1/1P/2/2P unit sends a series recording signal to the next HSR-1/1P/2/2P unit via the PARALLEL I/O connector.

When the next HSR-1/1P/2/2P unit receives the signal, it starts recording.

To cancel series recording

Press the STOP key on the HSR-1/1P/2/2P unit on which recording is in progress.
