Chapter 2 Location and Function of Parts DATA indicator: Lights when the audio output signals are recognized as data with the unit in recording, E-E1), or playback mode. OVER indicator: While the unit is in recording or playback mode, this lights when the level of the audio signal on the corresponding channel exceeds the maximum level that can be indicated on the level meter. Level meter: Displays the audio signal level when the unit is in recording or playback mode. You can use the setup menu to switch the display mode between PEAK.0 (0 dB is maximum level) and REF.0 (0 dB is the reference level). You can also use the DISPLAY FULL/FINE button 2 to enlarge the display only near the reference level. Input channel indicator: Indicates the input channel from which audio signals are recorded on the audio track. Two numbers light to indicate that signals from the corresponding input channels are mixed for recording. Monitor channel L and R indicators: Indicate whether or not the signals of the track are output to the MONITOR OUTPUT L/R connectors and PHONES jack. 'L' lights to indicate output to the left monitor channel, and 'R' lights to indicate output to the right monitor channel. EMPH (emphasis) indicator: While the unit is in recording or playback mode, this lights when the emphasis setting is on for the audio signal on the corresponding track. 4 Audio monitor signal selection buttons (CH1 to CH4, and CUE) The function of these buttons depends on the signal selection mode set with the audio selection function selector buttons (INPUT, MIXING) 1 as follows. Input signal selection mode (the input signal indicator flashes): The buttons in the upper row select signals for each audio input channel. When the CH1 to CH4 buttons are pressed, the selected signal cycles between HDSDI t AES/ EBU t ANA(LOG) t HDSDI. Mixing setting mode (the MIX indicator flashes): The buttons in the lower row (REC row) select the tracks (audio channels on the tape) to contain the mixed signals. In the audio setting display section, the MIX indicator for the corresponding track flashes. The buttons in the upper row (EXT row) select the input channel signals to record on the corresponding track. By pressing two buttons at the same time, you can specify that the signals of two input channels be mixed for recording. For example, if you want to record the mixed signals of input channels 1 and 4 on track 3, press the CH3 button in the lower row (REC row), and then simultaneously press the CH1 and CH4 buttons in the upper row (EXT row). The settings for signal mixing become valid when the MIXING button is pressed. Note Before selecting signals from two input channels for recording in one recorder channel, check to be sure that the emphasis settings (ON or OFF) of the two input channels are the same. Recording and playback of mixed signals cannot be carried out correctly if the emphasis settings are different. The EMPH indicator in the audio setting display section lights for channels with the emphasis setting on. Monitor signal selection mode (the input signal indicator and the MIX indicator do not flash): The buttons in the upper and lower rows select tracks to be output to the MONITOR OUTPUT L and R connectors on the connector panel or the PHONES jack on the upper control panel. The buttons in the upper row (L row) select tracks for output to the MONITOR OUTPUT L connector, and the buttons on the lower row (R row) select tracks for output to the MONITOR OUTPUT R connector. You can obtain the mixed output of multiple tracks by simultaneously pressing multiple buttons in the upper or lower rows. For example, simultaneously press the CH1, CH2, and CH3 buttons in the upper row to mix the signals of audio tracks 1, 2, and 3 for output to the MONITOR OUTPUT L connector. To monitor CH5 to CH8 in MPEG IMX playback, press the CUE button to switch between CH1 to CH4 and CH5 to CH8, and then select the desired channels. ... 1) E-E mode: Abbreviation of "Electric-to-Electric mode". In this mode, video and audio signals input to the VTR are output after passing through internal electric circuits, but not through magnetic conversion circuits such as heads and tapes. This can be used to check input signals and for adjusting input signal levels. 2-5 Chapter 2 Location and Function of Parts

DATA indicator:
Lights when the audio output
signals are recognized as data with the unit in
recording, E-E
1)
, or playback mode.
OVER indicator:
While the unit is in recording or
playback mode, this lights when the level of the
audio signal on the corresponding channel exceeds
the maximum level that can be indicated on the
level meter.
Level meter:
Displays the audio signal level when
the unit is in recording or playback mode. You can
use the setup menu to switch the display mode
between PEAK.0 (0 dB is maximum level) and
REF.0 (0 dB is the reference level). You can also
use the DISPLAY FULL/FINE button
2
to
enlarge the display only near the reference level.
Input channel indicator:
Indicates the input channel
from which audio signals are recorded on the
audio track. Two numbers light to indicate that
signals from the corresponding input channels are
mixed for recording.
Monitor channel L and R indicators:
Indicate
whether or not the signals of the track are output
to the MONITOR OUTPUT L/R connectors and
PHONES jack. ‘L’ lights to indicate output to the
left monitor channel, and ‘R’ lights to indicate
output to the right monitor channel.
EMPH (emphasis) indicator:
While the unit is in
recording or playback mode, this lights when the
emphasis setting is on for the audio signal on the
corresponding track.
4
Audio monitor signal selection buttons (CH1 to
CH4, and CUE)
The function of these buttons depends on the signal
selection mode set with the audio selection function
selector buttons (INPUT, MIXING)
1
as follows.
Input signal selection mode (the input signal
indicator flashes):
The buttons in the upper row
select signals for each audio input channel.
When the CH1 to CH4 buttons are pressed, the
selected signal cycles between HDSDI
t
AES/
EBU
t
ANA(LOG)
t
HDSDI.
Mixing setting mode (the MIX indicator flashes):
The buttons in the lower row (REC row) select the
tracks (audio channels on the tape) to contain the
mixed signals. In the audio setting display section,
the MIX indicator for the corresponding track
flashes. The buttons in the upper row (EXT row)
select the input channel signals to record on the
corresponding track. By pressing two buttons at
the same time, you can specify that the signals of
two input channels be mixed for recording.
For example, if you want to record the mixed
signals of input channels 1 and 4 on track 3, press
the CH3 button in the lower row (REC row), and
then simultaneously press the CH1 and CH4
buttons in the upper row (EXT row). The settings
for signal mixing become valid when the MIXING
button is pressed.
Note
Before selecting signals from two input channels
for recording in one recorder channel, check to be
sure that the emphasis settings (ON or OFF) of the
two input channels are the same. Recording and
playback of mixed signals cannot be carried out
correctly if the emphasis settings are different.
The EMPH indicator in the audio setting display
section lights for channels with the emphasis
setting on.
Monitor signal selection mode (the input signal
indicator and the MIX indicator do not flash):
The buttons in the upper and lower rows select
tracks to be output to the MONITOR OUTPUT L
and R connectors on the connector panel or the
PHONES jack on the upper control panel. The
buttons in the upper row (L row) select tracks for
output to the MONITOR OUTPUT L connector,
and the buttons on the lower row (R row) select
tracks for output to the MONITOR OUTPUT R
connector. You can obtain the mixed output of
multiple tracks by simultaneously pressing
multiple buttons in the upper or lower rows. For
example, simultaneously press the CH1, CH2, and
CH3 buttons in the upper row to mix the signals of
audio tracks 1, 2, and 3 for output to the
MONITOR OUTPUT L connector.
To monitor CH5 to CH8 in MPEG IMX playback,
press the CUE button to switch between CH1 to
CH4 and CH5 to CH8, and then select the desired
channels.
1) E-E mode: Abbreviation of “Electric-to-Electric mode”.
In this mode, video and audio signals input to the VTR
are output after passing through internal electric circuits,
but not through magnetic conversion circuits such as
heads and tapes. This can be used to check input signals
and for adjusting input signal levels.
