Recording From a Variable Frame-Rate Camera Recording HD SDI Output Signals from a Variable Frame-rate Camera as 720/ 23.98p Combined with a variable frame-rate camera (VariCam: AJHDC27 series), the unit makes it possible to record HD SDI (720/ 23.98p over 59.94p) output from the camera as DVCPRO HD or AVC-Intra 720/23.98p native recording. Recording HD SDI signals from camera output 1 Connect the camera HD SDI (720/23.98p over 59.94p) output to the SDI IN connector and press the INPUT SELECT button to select HD SDI. 2 Make the following setup menu settings. Item No.25 No.020 No.040 SYSTEM FREQ SYS FORMAT VFR REC Setting 59-23 720p OFF ◆ NOTE: • To record 720/24p over 60p output from a variable frame-rate camera, set menu No. 25 (SYSTEM FREQ) to 60-24. No output is made to a monitor video in this mode. 3 Hold down the REC button and the STILL/PAUSE button simultaneously to set the unit to REC PAUSE mode. HD SDI (720/23.98p over 59.94p) output 4 To start recording, press the STILL/PAUSE button while viewing the video output from the camera HD SDI output.

The unit will then automatically start and stop recording as the REC and STOP buttons are pressed on the camera. • SDI is output in the 1080/23.98 PsF video format. Analog video and IEEE1394 are not output. • No time code can be input to the TIME CODE IN connector. • The SDI output is delayed relative to LCD monitor and monitor video output. Analog audio, speaker and headphone output is synchronized to the LCD monitor and monitor video output. To synchronize these outputs to SDI output, set setup menu No. 778 (AUD OUT DLY) to ON. • Set camera TCG to FREE RUN/NDF (non drop frame) mode. A TC/ UB of an SDI input that cannot be properly read cannot be normally recorded. 42 Introduction: Recording From a Variable Frame-Rate Camera
