14 (E)CONTENTSRear panel1 AC IN socketConnect one end of the power cord supplied to thissocket and the other end to the power outlet.2 DIGITAL AUDIO IN and OUT connectorsThese are the input and output connectors fordigital audio signals that comply with the AES/EBUstandards.The digital audio signals which are to be input tothese connectors must be synchronized with thevideo input signals. Otherwise, noise will begenerated in the audio output signals.3 ANALOG COMPONENT VIDEO IN connectors(optional)The analogue component video signals are input tothese connectors.4 ANALOG COMPOSITE VIDEO IN connectorsand 75 Ω termination switch (optional)The analogue composite video signals are input tothese connectors. A loop-through configuration isfeatured for each pair of input connectors.For termination at this VTR, set the terminationswitch to ON.5 REF VIDEO IN connectors and 75 Ω terminationswitchThese are the input connectors of the referencevideo signals.Input a reference signal with colour burst.For termination at this VTR, set the terminationswitch to ON.Video and audio output may be disturbed when thereference video signal is not input, so it isrecommended that a system which inputs thereference video signal be used.Parts and their functions6 Remote control connectorsThese connectors make it possible to use two ofthese VTRs or to connect this VTR to an externalcontroller so that the VTR can be operated from anexternal component.Two remote control connectors are provided: onefor IN/OUT use and the other for OUT use only.IN/OUT:For connection with an external controllerFor connection with deck-to-deck operationsOUT:For connection with parallel run operationsFor loop-through useIf connection is to be made to the OUT connectorfor deck-to-deck operations where this VTR willserve as the recorder, which of the two connectorsis to be used can be selected using setup menu No.212 (MASTER PORT).7 ENCODER REMOTE connectorAn external encoder remote controller is connectedto this connector when the video output signalsettings are to be adjusted from an externalcomponent.8 ANALOG AUDIO IN connectorsThese are the analogue audio input connectors.9 TIME CODE IN connectorThis connector is used to record an external timecode onto the tape.: TIME CODE OUT connectorDuring playback, the playback time code is outputthrough this connector.During recording, the time code generated by theinternal time code generator is output.; SERIAL DIGITAL COMPONENT AUDIO andVIDEO IN and OUT connectorsThese are the input and output connectors for thedigital component audio and video signals thatcomply with the ITU-R BT.656-4 standard.Video signals containing superimposed informationcan be output through the SDI OUT 3 connector.Whether the superimposing is to be set ON or OFFis selected using the SUPER switch W on the frontpanel.The digital audio signals which are to be input tothese connectors must be synchronized with thevideo input signals. Otherwise, noise will begenerated in the audio output signals.PUSH PUSHPUSH PUSHPUSHAC INSIGNALGNDAES/EBUSDISDTIANALOGCH1/2INYVIDEOVIDEOOUTSERVICE ONLYREMOTE IN/OUT CH1 CH2AUDIOINENCODER REMOTERS-232CPARALLELREMOTE OUTINREF VIDEOINONOFFPBPRY 12(WFM)3(SUPER)PBPROPTIONCH3/4INCH1/2OUTCH3/4OUTREMOTE75ΩONOFF75ΩANALOGTCININACTIVETHROUGHOUT1TCOUTMONLMONRCH4CH3CH1 CH2AUDIOOUTCH4CH32OPTIONIN OUT123(SUPER)1 92 8 ;64 5 7 :3
