D24—Owner’s Manual
Connecting a Video Editor

In a video editing environment, the D24 can be controlled by

connecting a video remote controller or video editor, which

supports 9-pin protocols, to the SERIAL I/O port. With the

timecode source set to SERIAL, the D24 responds to com-

mands from the video remote controller. For sync play opera-

tion, the VTR’s timecode should be fed to the D24 and the

Chase function should be turned on.

Video Hookup Example

In the following example, the D24 provides multitrack recording and playback in a

video editing system. The D24 and VTRs are controlled by the video editor using 9-pin

protocols. Note that not all video editors are supported. The D24’s timecode source is

set to SERIAL and timecode is received from the Record VTR via the TIMECODE

INPUT. If the video editor has timecode outputs, the D24’s timecode can be sourced

from the video editor instead of the Record VTR.

For sync play on the video editor, the D24 responds to transport commands received

from the video editor and automatically chases and synchronizes to the Record VTR’s

timecode when the Chase function is turned on.
