Optional DV and SDI output board
The HS-600 can be supplied with, or without, an optional DV and SDI board fitted. Please check with your dealer
which model you should have.
The DV and SDI board has two 6 pin IEEE-1394 DV ports and two SDI BNC connections. All connections on this
board are outputs.
The two DV25 outputs carry audio as well as video. The DV output can be connected to a DV25 deck or recorder
such as the Datavideo DN-60, DN-200, DN-400 or DN-500. Alternatively you could also connect this DV output to a
computer DV capture card.
SAFETY FIRST:
Care should be taken when connecting 6 pin DV cabling as the connector carries power as well
as data. The DV connector is shaped so that it is connected in one way only. Forcing the DV cable into the DV
socket the wrong way around can cause damage by short circuit of the power contacts. This type of damage is not
covered by warranty so please be careful.
The two standard definition SDI outputs also carry embedded audio as well as video. These SDI outputs can be
connected to an SDI monitor such as the Datavideo TLM-170H or a recorder such as the Datavideo HDR-40, HDR-
50, HDR-45 or HDR-55. Alternatively you could also connect this SDI output to a computer SDI capture card, or a
computer SDI CG overlay card or a Satellite transmission link.
SDI signals from this card can be sent over standard SDI 75 Ohm BNC cabling for 100m before needing to be re-
clocked. A Datavideo VP-445 SDI distribution amplifier (one input, four outputs) could re-clock this signal.

The HS-600 is set up by a series of menus. Once the initial settings
have been chosen they are stored within the system, so it may only be
necessary to make these changes once.
When the
SETTING
button
is pressed in the
EFFECTS
area of the
HS-600 keyboard the Main Menu list, shown left, is displayed between
the PST and PGM images on the Multi-Image Preview output.
This menu option allows the user to change settings which effect video
coming into or going out of the HS-600. Use the arrow buttons to
highlight the
VIDEO IN & OUT
item then press the
ENTER
button to
confirm the selection.

It is possible to change the SDI output to show either the MAIN
(Program) output, SUB (Preview) output or one of the AUX
outputs. Mixed program audio can be embedded into a chosen
group of two SDI audio channels.
The DV out mode cannot be changed.
