eREC INHI (recording inhibit) indicator This lights in the following cases.

• When a disc with recording inhibited is loaded.

• When extended menu item 310 “REC INHIBIT” is set to “on.”

• The format of the recorded part of the disc does not match the settings of the PDW-R1 (number of recorded channels, TV system (525/625 selection), and recording format (DVCAM/IMX50/IMX40/IMX30 selection)).

aAudio level meters

Depending on the setting of the AUDIO METER SEL button (see page 15), these show the audio recording levels (during recording) or audio playback levels (during playback) of channels 1 to 4 or channels 5 to 8. If an audio level exceeds 0 dB, the OVER indicator lights.

The DATA indicator lights when non-audio signals are played back.

By means of a maintenance menu setting, you can display a reference level indicator (“-”) to the right of each meter when recording.

For details of the maintenace menu, see 7-4 “Maintenance Menu” on page 112.

bTime data display

Normally, this shows the disc playback time, time code, or user bit information, as selected by the COUNTER SEL button (see page 13) and extended menu item 629 “TC SELECT.”

It is also used for error messages, setup menus, and other displays.

The following indicators are located above the time data display.

COUNTER indicator: This lights when a counter value (hours, minutes, seconds, and frames, resettable) is displayed in the time data display.

HOLD indicator: This lights when the internal time code generator (TCG) is stopped. Does not light when the output of the time code reader (TCR) is being displayed during playback and stop.

TC/VITC (time code type) indicator: This lights when the COUNTER SEL button (see page 13) is set to TC. The time data display shows the time code.

When extended menu item 629 “TC SELECT” is set to “tc,” this shows “TC,” and when “vitc” is selected, it shows “VITC.”

UB/VIUB (user bit type) indicator: This lights when the COUNTER SEL button is set to UB. The time data display shows the user bits.

When extended menu item 629 “TC SELECT” is set to “tc,” this shows “UB,” and when “vitc” is selected it shows “VIUB.”

VITC indicator: This lights in the following cases.

In playback mode, when VITC is being read. (Regardless of what the time data display is showing.)

When VITC is being recorded, or in E-E mode 1) when VITC is recorded due to one of the following conditions.

-Extended menu item 619 “VITC” is set to “on.”

-There is VITC in the selected video input signal, and that line has been set to “thru” with extended menu item 723 “INPUT VIDEO BLANK.”

PB (playback) indicator: This lights when the output of the time code reader (TCR) is being displayed.

NDF (non-drop-frame) indicator: This lights in E-E mode when extended menu item 628 is set to “ndf,” and during playback when the clip on the disc has non- drop-frame time code.

EXT-LK (external synchronization) indicator: This lights when the internal time code generator is locked to an external signal input to the TC IN connector.

1)E-E mode: Abbreviation of Electric to Electric mode. The mode in which input video and audio signals are output after passing only through the electrical circuits.

cDISC remaining capacity indicator

This shows the amount of free capacity on the current disc, as follows.

xxxxxxx(7 segments lit): All capacity is available. As clips are recorded, the number of lit LED segments decreases.

“DISC” flashing: The disc is almost full.

“DISC” and “E” flashing: The disc is full (it must be replaced).

dBATT (battery) status display

This shows the amount of charge left in the battery, as follows.

xxxxxxx(7 segments lit): Adequately charged. As the battery discharges, the number of lit LED segments decreases.

“BATT” flashing: Almost exhausted. Operation of the PDW-R1 continues.
