Converting Analog Signals into Digital
Signals (Analog-Digital Converter)
By connecting the camcorder to a VCR or 8mm video camcorder, you can convert analog
video/audio signals to digital signals and output the digital signals via the DV terminal.
The DV terminal serves as output terminal only.
Connecting the Devices
Turn off all devices before starting the connections. Unload the tape from the camcorder.
Check the direction before connecting the DV cable. Refer also to the instruction manual
of the connected device.
You can also connect a VCR with S (S1)-VIDEO terminal (
37).
Turning On the Analog-Digital Converter
1. Set the camcorder to
PLAY(VCR)•
mode.
Check the video input setting (
65).
2. Press the MENU button and select [VCR SETUP]. Select [AV
DV/
],
set it to [ON] and press the MENU button.
Depending on the signal sent from the connected device, the conversion from
analog to digital signals might not work properly (e.g., signals that include
copyright protective signals or anomalous signals such as ghost signals).
When connecting to a TV/Video with SCART terminal, use a SCART adapter
with input capability (commercially available). The supplied SCART Adapter
PC-A10 is for output only.
