Connections for Playback To digital video equipment with a DV jack The video and audio signals are sent with hardly any degradation, enabling high-quality recording.

Monitor DSR-45/45P (rear panel) i.LINK cable (DV cable) (not supplied) DV jack Notes • With the DV connection, data codes (recording date/ time, camera data) recorded on the source tape are transmitted to the recorder. As a result, when you play back a recorded tape on this unit and press the DATA CODE button on the Remote Commander, the same data codes as those recorded on the source tape are displayed on the monitor screen. • The external lock function of this unit only supports the standard sync signals. With the DV connection, set EXT SYNC on the VIDEO SET menu to OFF to prevent malfunction resulting from noise, etc. For details on the VIDEO SET menu, see "VIDEO SET menu" on page 86 (GB). • If no picture appears via the DV jack, disconnect the i.LINK cable (DV cable), then reinsert it straight. • When connecting a device that has a 6-pin DV jack to this unit, first, connect the plug of the cable to the 6pin DV jack. • If the unit is connected to a device equipped with a 6pin 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. • If you connect the input connectors of this unit to the output connectors of a recorder or that of a monitor, a humming noise may be generated or the image may be distorted. If these phenomena occur, perform one of the following: - Set DV EE OUT on the VTR SET menu to OFF. - Set the INPUT SELECT selector to a position where a signal is not currently being input. - Disconnect the cables.
