DV IN/OUT Terminal
About the Connected Equipment
When this recorder is connected with a DV-format
camcorder using a DV cable, you can record and edit with
minimal deterioration of picture and sound quality using a
digital signal.
NOTE
The DV IN/OUT terminal of this recorder only enables
input and output of DV-format camcorders (DVC-SD
signals). It is not compatible with satellite receivers or
Digital VHS video recorders since they employ a different
format.
When this recorder is connected with a camcorder
equipped with a DV terminal, the signal may not be input
to this recorder depending on the camcorder. When this
happens, use an analog connection (page 98).
The DV IN/OUT terminal is not compatible with connec-
tion to a PC.
This recorder cannot be controlled from other equipment
by using the DV IN/OUT terminal.
Only one camcorder can be connected to this recorder
using the DV IN/OUT terminal.
Connect this recorder and the camcorder directly. The DV
signal will not be input if the camcorder is connected to
this recorder through other equipment equipped with a
DV IN/OUT terminal.
When two of these recorders are connected using the DV
IN/OUT jack, one cannot be used to control the other.
Signals may not be able to be output or control may not
be possible from this recorder in the case of some digital
camcorders (page 96).
