The DVCPRPO connector can be connected with an
external device for recording backup copies to control the
start and stop of recording.
1
Set the 1394 CONTROL menu option on the 1394
SETTING screen on the SYSTEM SETTING page to
BOTH.
2
Through the 1394 CMD SEL menu option, select the
type of stop recording command to be received by the
external device.
3
Through the REC TALLY menu option on the OPTION
MODE screen, select how the recording status of the
camera-recorder should be indicated. Note that the
recording status of the external device is indicated
with a red tally LED.
Note
When the Fire Store FS-100 is used as external storage,
the VITC UB MODE menu option on the TC/UB screen on
the MAIN OPERATION page can be set to FRM. RATE to
allow the FS-100 to indicate the shooting frame rate of the
camera-recorder on its display.
z
When connecting the 1394 (DV) cable, see
[32.DVCPRO/DV connector] (page 20).
z
The AV signals may be disrupted by turning the power of
the connected devices ON and OFF or by disconnecting
and re-connecting the I/F cables.
z
It may take several seconds for the system to operate
stably when the input signals are switched or operation
is transferred from one mode to another.
Perform recording operation after the system operation
has stabilized.
z
For recording data using the IEEE 1394 interface input
selection, or for signals output from the IEEE 1394
interface, the AUDIO Volume on the side panel is
disabled.
z
When the camera-recorder is controlled through PC
application software, etc., take note of the following.
The scene-to-scene continuity recording from an
arbitrary position on the clip is not possible.
Recording will always continue immediately after the
latest clip.
Software must be used under the condition where
the camera-recorder thumbnail screen is closed.
The application software may not be able to apply
control when the thumbnail screen is open.
z
During special playback, video and audio signals which
have not been processed as the output signals of the
IEEE1394 interface will be output. When these video
and audio signals are monitored on another device, they
may be at variance from the video and audio signals
which are played back by the camera-recorder.
z
In the case when the output format is either DV or
DVCPRO (25M), the audio channel signal selected from
the 1394 AUDIO OUT option of the setup menu will be
output from the IEEE1394 interface.
