Rear Panel
Terminal
Functions

This chapter provides information on the
functions of the control and remote rear
panel terminals.

Control terminal functions

Control terminal (CTRL-S)
—Mini-jack type

This recorder allows external control by connecting system
controller to the CTRL-S terminal as remote.

Control functions

The functions are the same as for the recorder’s remote.
Also, when a plug is inserted into the CTRL-S terminal, the
reception of infrared signals is stopped.

Remote Terminal Functions

RELAY PLAY/REC
—Stereo mini-jack type

With the recorder connected to other recorders, the end of
recording or playback on the first unit passes a control
signal to the RELAY terminal, so that recording or
playback automatically begins in the second unit.
By making the connection a loop, continuous playback is
also possible.

Connection for relay playback or recording

Connection between the first recorder, set to RELAY OUT,
and the second recorder, set to RELAY IN, is by a stereo
mini-plug cable (RK-G136, etc.).
When more than two recorders are connected, both RELAY
OUT and RELAY IN are connected in the same way.

The input and output signals are relayed by the direct
connection between the output signal terminal of the
first recorder and the input signal terminal of the
second recorder. Though this connection, an input
signal are relayed to all the other recorders as well;
likewise the output signal is relayed through the direct
connection with the other recorders.

Connection for relay play and recording

Set “RELAY” of “Setup Menu” to “OFF”.
To relay the input/output signal in “PLAY” or “REC”, the
same operating conditions as for input monitor (page 22)
are applied, and there are restrictions on operations.

Note

Please set the input selector of the recorder front panel in
accordance with the connection to the input terminal.
