Synchronization Reference Signals
The synchronization reference signal generator of this unit
synchronizes to a reference signal input to the REF.
VIDEO INPUT connector or to a video input signal.
External synchronization is as follows, depending on the
setting of OUT REF on the HOME page of the function
menu, and on the type of the selected input signal. Video
output signals are always synchronized to the internal
synchronization reference signal.
a) Same as when INT SG on page P1 INPUT of the function menu is set to
“ON”.
Setting setup menu item 105 REFERENCE ALARM to
ON causes the STOP button to flash when the clip is not
synchronized to the reference signal.
Synchronization reference signals when
you are recording, playing, or editing 720P
signals
When you are recording, playing, or editing 720P signals,
set OUT REF on the HOME page of the function menu to
“REF”, and synchronize the synchronization reference
signal generator of this unit to a reference signal input to
the REF. VIDEO INPUT connector. The following
reference signals can be used.
720/59.94P system:
1080/59.94i tri-level sync signal, 525
black burst signal
720/50P system:
1080/50i tri-level sync signal, 625 black
burst signal
When you directly interconnect video I/O connectors
between two of this unit or between this unit and the XDS-
PD1000/PD2000 or PDW-F1600/HD1500/F800/700, you
can record and dub 720P signals even if you set OUT REF
on the HOME page of the function menu to “INPUT”.
