Using GPS Data
1-1 Overview
1-1-1 Features
The HKDW-704 GPS Unit is an option board that can be installed in a
camcorder.
Installation of this board allows you to receive data from earth-orbiting
satellites, record shooting position on a tape or a “Memory Stick” and
display the shooting position and a locus on a monitor using mapping
software.
Notes
• Ask a Sony service center to install the HKDW-704 GPS unit.
• It is necessary to set a line number to output the GPS data to be
recorded on a tape to the HD(SD) SDI signal of studio-use equipment.
The data is not output if the line number is set to 00, the factory
setting.
For detailed information on how to set the line number, see “1- 3-2 Confirming/
Setting the Line Number” on page 1-10.
This unit has the following features:
• The unit is compact so as it can be installed in a camcorder for
receiving GPS data.
• Two kinds of GPS antenna are supplied, one has a short antenna cord
and the other has a long antenna cord. Thus, a long cord can be used
as an external antenna. When shooting, for example, inside a vehicle
where it is difficult to receive radio waves, you can attach the long
GPS antenna to a place where radio waves can be easily received (on
the dash board, rear deck, roof, etc.).
• Since the board is backed up using a lithium battery in the camcorder,
the time required to complete a geodetic survey is shortened.
