Preparation on the recorder (this unit)
Notes
• Before recording, set the date and time on the unit so
that the recording time can be written into the search
signal. You can set the date and time by setting
CLOCK SET on the OTHERS menu.
For details on the OTHERS menu, see “OTHERS menu”
on page 67 (GB).
• Editing may not be possible with a signal that is
copyright protected.
• During a recording, the tape transport control buttons
(except STOP and PAUSE) are disabled to prevent
the tape running mode from being changed by an
incorrect operation. To disable the STOP and PAUSE
buttons, set the KEY INH switch to ON after the unit
starts recording. In this case, set the KEY INH switch
to OFF first, then stop or pause the recording.
1
Power on the video monitor, then set the monitor’s
input according to the input signals.
2
Set up the player to play back a tape.
For details, refer to the instruction manual of the

When the player is connected to the INPUT jacks
on this unit, set the NTSC/PAL select switch on
this unit to the appropriate position according to
the input signals.
For NTSC formatted signals, set the switch to
NTSC and for PAL formatted signals, set it to
PAL.
For details on the NTSC/PAL select switch setting, see
“Rear Panel” on page 18 (GB).
Notes
• Do not change the NTSC/PAL select switch
setting during recording.
• If the color system of the input signals is different
from that of the switch setting, picture will be
blanked.
• When the signals are input to the DV jack, the
unit detects the color system of the input signal
automatically. However when the NTSC/PAL
select switch is set to PAL, the time code
generated by the unit while recording in DVCAM
format changes to the non-drop frame mode.
Even if an NTSC formatted signal is input to the
DV jack, the time code generated by the unit is
non-drop frame mode regardless of the TC
FORMAT setting on the TC/UB SET menu. If
you intend to set the unit to generate the time
code in the drop frame mode, set the switch to
NTSC.

• If the unit is connected to a device equipped with a 6-
pin DV jack, when you intend to disconnect or
reconnect the DV cable, turn off the device and pull
out the plug of its power cord from the AC outlet
beforehand. If you connect or disconnect the DV
cable while the device is connected to the AC outlet,
high-voltage current (8 to 40 V) is output from the
DV jack of the device to this unit, which may cause a
malfunction.
• If you connect the output connectors of this unit to
the input connectors of a player or that of a monitor,
a humming noise may be generated or the image may
Connect either an S-video cable or 75 Ω coaxial cable
as a video cable.
Use a conversion cable for the audio connection,
depending on types of audio output connectors on the
player (see page on 19 (GB)).
Notes

simultaneously from the DV jack for backup. Set DV
EE OUT on the VTR SET menu to ON.
For details on the VTR SET menu, see “VTR SET menu”
on page 65 (GB).

the input connectors of the player, a humming noise
may be generated or the image may be distorted. If
these phenomena occur, set the INPUT SELECT
selector to a position where a signal is not currently
being input, or disconnect the cables.
• Distorted signals (e.g., when played back at a speed
other than normal) may not be recorded or may be
distorted.

If you use a cassette with cassette memory, the index
will also be marked in the cassette memory.
Notes
• You cannot mark a new index while the “INDEX
MARK” indicator is being displayed.

number of indexes that you can mark. When you use
a previously recorded tape for repeated recordings,
make more memory space available by erasing
unwanted items using ITEM ERASE or ERASE ALL
on the CM SET menu before you start recording.
