42 Introduction: Recording From a Variable Frame-Rate CameraRecording From a Variable Frame-Rate CameraCombined with a variable frame-rate camera (VariCam: AJ-HDC27 series), the unit makes it possible to record HD SDI (720/23.98p over 59.94p) output from the camera as DVCPRO HD orAVC-Intra 720/23.98p native recording.1 Connect the camera HD SDI (720/23.98p over59.94p) output to the SDI IN connector and press theINPUT SELECT button to select HD SDI.2 Make the following setup menu settings.◆ NOTE:• To record 720/24p over 60p output from a variable frame-ratecamera, set menu No. 25 (SYSTEM FREQ) to 60-24. No outputis made to a monitor video in this mode.3 Hold down the REC button and the STILL/PAUSEbutton simultaneously to set the unit to REC PAUSEmode.4 To start recording, press the STILL/PAUSE buttonwhile viewing the video output from the camera HDSDI output.◆ NOTE:• Set setup menu No. 155 (AUTO REC) to TYPE1 and set theCONTROL switch to REMOTE. The unit will then automatically startand stop recording as the REC and STOP buttons are pressed onthe camera.• SDI is output in the 1080/23.98 PsF video format. Analog video andIEEE1394 are not output.• No time code can be input to the TIME CODE IN connector.• The SDI output is delayed relative to LCD monitor and monitor videooutput. Analog audio, speaker and headphone output issynchronized to the LCD monitor and monitor video output. Tosynchronize these outputs to SDI output, set setup menu No. 778(AUD OUT DLY) to ON.• Set camera TCG to FREE RUN/NDF (non drop frame) mode. A TC/UB of an SDI input that cannot be properly read cannot be normallyrecorded.Recording HD SDI Output Signals from a Variable Frame-rate Camera as 720/23.98pRecording HD SDI signals from cameraoutputONOFFPOWERMETERFULL/FINEMONITORSELECTMETER SELECTINPUT SELECTRECTHUMBNAILSETMENU IN ENTRYSLOT CLIPPF1 ALL CLIPPF3 SHIFTPF4CLIP LISTPF2SLOT SELECTLAST X TRIMDELETEVIDEO GO TOOUTEDIT MODE A.DUBMODEA1A3A2A4DIAGOPERATIONEXITCANCEL/PFMULTISELCH 1 CH 2 CH 3 CH 4 TEXTMEMO TCGTC PRESETPROPRESETCOUNTERPLAYER STOPSTILL/PAUSEPREVIEWA.LEVEL RECREWRECFFPREV NEXTPLAYREVIEW1 CLIP PLAYSOURCE SELECTNEWINTREGENPRESETEXTMARKERVARUNITYVIDEO AUDIOCH 1-4 CH 5-8PLAYLISTSDIDVCPRO/DVINOUTVIDEO REF VIDEO IN TIME CODE AUDIO MON AES/EBUREMOTECH1·2 CH3·4IN IN LROUT OUT OUTIN INOUT75AUTO3 41HD SDI (720/23.98p over 59.94p)outputSDI IN connectorItem SettingNo.25 SYSTEM FREQ 59-23No.020 SYS FORMAT 720pNo.040 VFR REC OFF
