Connecting to a Nonlinear Editing
System (AV/C Connection)
You can send video/audio signals (AV/C data) from this
unit to a nonlinear editing system connected to the S400
connector.
The following figure shows an example connection.
See “Using PDZ-1 Over an i.LINK Connection (FAM
Connection)” (page 24) for the connections and settings to
make a FAM connection between this unit and a nonlinear
editing system.
The S400 connector of this unit outputs video/audio
signals in DVCAM format. Data recorded in MPEG HD
format is output after being converted into DVCAM
format.
The nonlinear editing system to be connected to this unit
requires editing software (not supplied) supporting the
DVCAM format.
To transfer video and audio signals (AV/C data), use
AUDIO CONTROL >DV OUT MODE (see page 85) in
the setup menu to select the audio mode (the factory
default is “2ch”).
This unit’s S400 connector has 6 pins. Check the
number of pins on the i.LINK connector of your laptop
computer, and use an appropriate i.LINK cable.
Connections for Cut Editing
By connecting this unit to a VTR, you can configure a cut
editing system. Some example connections are shown in
the following.
When making the connections, also refer to the manuals
provided with the equipment to be connected.
When using the editing functions of the
recorder (connections using the S400

The following figure shows a cut editing system
comprising this unit as a player and a DSR-2000A/2000AP
