Notes on Usage in the Editing System
If you use the unit in an editing system, the following
functions are limited.
Notes on general
• When using the RS-422A/232C connectors to
connect this unit to other equipment, you cannot
place the unit as a recorder.
• This unit is not equipped with a synchronization
function. Adjust the edit timing with the editing
controller, and set sync grade to Preroll & Play.
• To make the unit comply with a command sent from
an editing controller to locate a scene, set FF/REW
SPD on the VTR SET menu to SHUTTLEMAX.
• Except when editing with the RS-422A connection, if
the unit has been in the pause mode for the period
specified in the menu, the unit will go into the tape
protection mode.
• When you control this unit from an editing controller
connected to the RS-422A connector:
– if the TIMER selector is set to REPEAT, and the
tape reaches its end point by fast-forwarding using
the FF button, jog dial control via the editing
controller is not available.
– if the tape reaches its beginning or end using the
REW or FF button, the unit turns to playback pause
mode at a point a few seconds from its beginning or
end.
• The TIMER selector setting has higher priority than
the REMOTE/LOCAL switch setting. In an editing
system, set the TIMER selector to OFF.
• Even if the REMOTE/LOCAL switch is set to
REMOTE, the Remote Commander may function
depending on the setting of LOCAL ENBL on the
REMOTE menu. If you want to disable the Remote
Commander, set COMMANDER on the OTHERS
menu to CONTROL S.
Notes on editing
• When you control this unit from an editing controller
connected to the RS-422A/232C connector in the
editing system, editing via a DV connection is less
accurate than editing via an analog connection.
• This unit is not equipped with the first edit function.
• Since this unit does not support CTL, if the time code
recorded on the tape is out of sequence or the tape has
a blank portion between recorded portions, you may
not be able to use it for editing. In such a case, adjust
the editing IN point.
