J-10/J-30 Rear Panel 341 2 J-10SDI/J-30SDI SDI/Time Code Output Enhanced Interfacing Capability Operational Versatility 1i.LINK Interface - Opening the Door to the DV World The new J Series Compact Players come equipped with an i.LINK interface as standard. This feature makes them very unique, since 1/2" SD Betacam series materials - including even 20-year-old archives - can be converted to a 25 Mbps DV signal (video, audio*, and time code are transferred) and sent to a compatible DV device via a single i.LINK interface cable. *2-ch or 4-ch selectable. 2Choice of Analog Component Output and SDI Output J Series Compact Players offer the choice of either analog component output or SDI output depending on application requirements. While the J-10 and J-30 offer one set of analog component outputs (BNC x 3) as standard, the J-10 SDI and J-30 SDI offer two SDI outputs (BNC x 2) - including one with superimposition capability. Also, one time code output is provided on the J-10 SDI and J-30 SDI models. 3Flexible Audio Outputs Two channels of analog audio output are available either through the XLR connectors or RCA pin jacks located on the rear panel of the J Series Compact Players. A headphone jack is also provided on the front panel. The audio channels to be output to the analog outputs and headphone jack can be selected from Ch 1/2, Ch 3/4, and Cue track. Audio is automatically muted for off-speed playback and non-data playback. 4 Ideal for Presentations The J Series Compact Players incorporate an infrared remote controller, which allows fundamental operations to be controlled wirelessly. This feature comes in handy for connection to conventional TV monitors, as well as data projectors with composite video or S-video input capability, making the J Series Compact Players a useful machine for presentations or demonstrations. UMID and Essence Mark Readable The UMID (Unique Material Identifier) is a type of metadata approved as an SMPTE standard (SMPTE330M). The UMID consists of a globally unique number and a material number, used for the identification of recorded material. Essence Marks, available on a variety of Sony camcorders, are also useful metadata that can be manually or automatically marked during shooting for easy picture search in subsequent editing processes. The J-30 SDI can read UMID and Essence Marks on MPEG IMX and Digital Betacam tapes and output them through the SDI interface*. *Auto Event Detection is not supported. Shot Mark Handling The J Series Compact Players can scan tapes with Shot Marks and automatically detect their position. After scanning, a list of all marks can be displayed on a video monitor, allowing easy cueing to any mark.
