Connecting the wires to the terminals
9 to &
• Recording mode signal output
When the <TERMINAL SEL 2> menu switch is set to
REC and the unit is in the Record mode, the recording
mode signal (+12 V) is output.
! [COM] common ground terminal
Connect to the ground terminal of a connected unit.
@ [TAPE END OUT] tape end signal output terminal
Outputs a Tape End signal when the tape ends during
recording.
• Outputs a +12 V signal during recording, playback, FF
and rewind. When the tape ends during recording, a 0
V (GND level) signal is output.
• When the tape ends during auto repeat recording,
signals are output for about 2 seconds.
• Connect an external alarm lamp or buzzer via an
external interface.
• To cancel the output, press the EJECT button, PLAY
button, FF button or REW button.
The timing of the tape end signal output during
recording can be selected with the <REC REMAIN>
menu switch (at tape end, or 3 minutes or 6 minutes
before the tape ends during 8H mode).
# [ALARM REC OUT] alarm recording mode signal
output terminal
Outputs +12 V signals during alarm recording.
$ [ALARM RESET] alarm signal reset input terminal
Receives signals to cancel alarm recording.
• Alarm input data is not reset.
% [ALARM IN] alarm signal input terminal
Receives signals to start alarm or sensor recording.
^ [COM] common ground terminal
Connect to the ground terminal of a connected unit.
& [CAM SW OUT] camera switching signal output
terminal
When a sequential switcher is connected, this terminal
outputs camera switching timing control signals. For
details, refer to page 52.
9 [SERIES/CLOCK IN] series recording signal/clock
reset signal input terminal
Input the series recording signals, VCR activation
signals from the external control equipment or clock
reset signals.
Select the input signal with the <TERMINAL SEL 1>
menu switch.
• Series recording signal input
When the <TERMINAL SEL 1> menu switch is set to
“SERIES”, the series recording signal is input.
• Connect to the other VCR series recording signal
output terminal.
• When a series recording signal is received from the
other VCR, recording starts automatically.
• VCR activation signal input
• When the <TERMINAL SEL 1> menu switch is set to
“EXT”, recording start and stop can be controlled with
external signal input.
• Connect to an external control device.
When a VCR activation signal (ground input) is
received, recording starts automatically and continues
for as long as the VCR activation signals are input.
• Clock reset signal input
When the <TERMINAL SEL 1> menu switch is set to
“C.ADJ”, the clock reset signal from the master clock
can be received.
• Inputting the clock reset signal synchronizes the time
with the master clock time if the time difference is
within ±30 seconds. If the difference exceeds
30 seconds, the time will not be adjusted correctly.
0 [WARNING/REC OUT] warning signal/rec signal
output terminal
Outputs a warning signal or recording mode signal. The
type of output signal can be selected with the
<TERMINAL SEL 2> menu switch.
• Warning signal output
When the <TERMINAL SEL 2> menu switch is set to
“WARNING”, a warning signal (+12 V) is output if an
abnormality occurs in tape transport or mechanism
operation.
