Notes
• If video signals have been input to the DV jack and
you output these video signals to the S VIDEO or
VIDEO connectors, the sync and burst of the
corresponding EE pictures are not synchronized.

” are trademarks and
indicate that this product is in agreement with IEEE
1394-1995 specifications and their revisions.

pin DV jack, when you intend to disconnect or
reconnect the DV cable, turn off the device and pull
out the plug of its power cord from the AC outlet
beforehand. If you connect or disconnect the DV
cable while the device is connected to the AC outlet,
high-voltage current (8 to 40 V) is output from the
DV jack of the device to this unit, which may cause a
malfunction.
•When connecting a device that has a 6-pin DV jack to
this unit, first, connect the plug of the cable to the 6-
pin DV jack.

status data.

as LANC jacks.
•When using this unit as a player, set the LANC mode
on the recorder to M. A device that does not have an
M / S switching function cannot be used to control
this unit.
