Features
SD down-converter
The unit comes with a built-in SD down-converter
as a standard feature to enable the output of SD
SDI signals
2
and analog composite signals at the
same time as HD SDI output signals
2
and for
monitoring the signals on an SD monitor.
Up-converter function
2
When an SD format tape is played back, it is
possible to up-convert the signals to the HD format
while at the same time outputting the signals in the
SD format.
Cross-converter function
2
The unit comes with a built-in cross-converter to
enable 1080i/59 Hz format signals to be converted
into 720p/59 Hz format signals or, conversely, to
enable 720p/59 Hz format signals to be converted
into 1080i/59 Hz format signals.
HD analog component output
This feature enables HD signals to be monitored
with ease.
AC/DC operation
The unit supports AC supply voltages ranging from
100V to 240V and DC12V power supply as well.
Follow-on recording function
2
Using the REC button and PAUSE button together
activates the auto back function, enabling the next
image to follow on from the last image with no
disruptions in the continuity.
On-screen menu settings
Highly detailed and individualized function settings
can be performed on-screen.
Time code
The unit is equipped with a built-in time code
generator/time code reader (TCG/TCR). Since time
code signals can also be input from an external
device
2
, regeneration to an external time code is
possible.
[Multi-functional interfaces]
Serial digital input/output
2
The unit’s HD component serial I/O interface
enables interfacing with HD component video
signals and 8-channel digital audio signals using a
single BNC connector. (SMPTE 292M/296M/299M)
The unit is also equipped with an SD down-
converter as a standard feature so that SD
component serial signals can be output as well.
(SMPTE 259M-C, 272M-A, ITU-R BT.656-4)
Analog video output
Since the unit’s analog composite down-converter
comes as a standard feature, the signals can be
monitored on an SD monitor.
9-pin remote
The unit’s 9-pin remote control connector enables it
to be operated with an external remote controller
(AJ-A95: optional accessory).
IEEE1394 digital input/output
Use of the digital video interface board (AJ-
YAD120AG: optional accessory) enables signals to
be input and output using an interface which
complies with the IEEE 1394 standard.
2
The unit’s recording function become operational
only when the AJ-YA120AG (optional accessory)
or AJ-YAD120AG (optional accessory) has been
installed.
