CapDiv

™ 

Portable

DV Disk Recorder

• There is no PAUSE mode condition with SYNC-TO-TAPE mode “OFF” select-
ed, so all video is recorded. The only way to “pause while recording” is to
press the PLAY/PAUSE button on CapDiv

during recording.

• A discrete video clip can only be created within an individual BIN. To record
a clip in another BIN the recording must first be stopped; the BIN number
changed; and the video recording process restarted.
• If SYNC-TO-TAPE mode “ON” is selected, CapDiv

can not record until the

camcorder tape is moving.

Automatic Record with SYNC-TO-TAPE Enabled

In Automatic Record CapDiv

emulates the camcorder recording method and

the SYNC-TO-TAPE mode “ON” is enabled, and recording to CapDiv

is

“slaved” or controlled by the RECORD button on the camcorder. In SYNC-TO-
TAPE mode “ON”, recording only occurs when the camcorder tape is moving.
Step 1: Hold the RECORD button and press the PLAY button at the same time.
This puts the CapDiv

into a RECORD-PAUSE mode. In the RECORD-PAUSE

mode, CapDiv

waits for the camcorder Time Code movement (vis-à-vis the

movement of the tape) to initiate the RECORD function. Step 2: Press the
RECORD button on the camcorder. (CapDiv

will begin to record simultane-

ously with the camcorder.) Step 3: When all recording sessions are completed,
press the STOP button on CapDiv

.

NOTES:

• If recording using the camcorder controls is temporarily halted, CapDiv

will

enter into PAUSE Mode and pause recording. Each time CapDiv

enters

PAUSE mode, a clip boundary is created, resulting in a new, sequential clip.
• When all recordings have ended, the STOP button on CapDiv

must be

pressed to end its recording session.
• A discrete video clip can only be created within an individual BIN. To record
a clip in another BIN the recording must first be stopped; the BIN number
changed; and the video recording process restarted.
