[. . . ] Digital Camera/VTR AJP Operating Instructions For your safety CAUTION RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN FCC NOTE: This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. To assure continued compliance follow the attached installation instructions and do not make any unauthorized modifications. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. [. . . ] o/p2 frames when the POWER switch is set to ON, OFF and back ON. 83 Setting the Time Data Setting the User Bit Setting the user bit allows up to 8 digits of hexadecimal data such as memos (date, time), etc. to be recorded in the sub code track. 1 2, 5 4 1 2 3 4 Set the DISPLAY switch to UB. Select UB MODE on the "VTR FUNCTION" SUB menu page of MAIN menu 2 of 4. Set the user bit using the SHIFT/ITEM, UP and DOWN buttons. SHIFT/ITEM button: This is used to cause the digit which is to be set to flash. Each time it is pressed, the flashing digit moves to the right. UP/DOWN buttons: These increment/decrement by 1 the figure of the flashing digit. The hexadecimal characters A to F appear as follows. Hexadecimal Display A B C D E F 5 Set the F-RUN/R-RUN switch to F-RUN or R-RUN. User bit memory function The user bit setting (except for the real time) is automatically stored in the memory and held even after the power is turned off. However, care should be taken as the settings are not stored in the memory if the time from when the power was turned on until the setting operations are completed and the power is turned off is less than 20 seconds. |Notes{ When DATE has been selected for UB MODE, the real time operations for YEAR/MONTH/DAY/ HOUR on the TIME/DATE page apply. When TIME has been selected for UB mode, the real time operations for HOUR/MINUTE/ SECOND on the TIME/DATE page apply. 84 Setting the Time Data Locking the Time Code to an External Source The time code generator of the VTR section can be locked to an external generator. Example of connections for external locking Example 1: Locking the time code to an external signal TC OUT Reference time code GENLOCK IN TC IN GENLOCK IN Reference video signal Example 2: When a multiple number of AJ-D610WA units are connected with one unit serving as the master unit and the others as the slave units CAM OUT TC IN GENLOCK IN CAM OUT TC IN GENLOCK IN CAM OUT TC IN GENLOCK IN TC OUT TC OUT TC OUT MASTER SLAVE SLAVE To the next unit External Lock Operation Procedure 3 2 1 1 2 3 4 Set the POWER switch to ON. Supply reference time code and reference video signals, whose phases correlate in a way that meets the time code standards, to the TC IN and GENLOCK IN/(VIDEO IN) connectors, respectively. 85 Setting the Time Data This locks the built-in time code generator to the reference time code. After about 10 seconds have passed since the time code generator was locked, the external lock status is maintained even if the external reference time code is disconnected. However, if the reference time code is disconnected during recording (REC), the servo lock will be thrown out of order. |Note{ When the external locking operation is performed, the time code is locked instantly to the external time code and the same value as the external code value appears in the counter display position. Do not set the VTR to recording mode for several seconds until the sync generator has stabilized. Setting Time Data User bit setting during external locking When the time code is locked to an external source, only the time data is locked to the time data of the time code from the external source. Accordingly, the user bit can be set independently for each unit. The user bit can also be locked to the user bit of the time code from the external source. Consult your dealer for a detailed explanation. Releasing the external lock Stop supplying the external time code and then set the F-RUN/R-RUN switch to R-RUN. Switching the power supply from the battery to an external power supply during external locking In order to maintain power supply continuity for the time code generator, connect the external power supply to the DC IN connector before unplugging the battery pack. [. . . ] Set the AUDIO SELECT CH1/CH2 switch to MAN. Turn the AUDIO LEVEL CH1/CH2 controls and check that the level display increases when the controls are turned to the right. (4) Earphone and Speaker Inspections 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 Set the VTR SAVE/STBY switch to STBY. Turn the MONITOR control and check that the speaker volume changes. Check that the sound to the speaker is cut off and that the microphone sound can be heard from the earphone. [. . . ]
