region" becomes effective. Thus the camcorder
will return to the settings that were in effect
before the remote control unit was connected.
1) Absolute value rotational controls: The data
corresponding to the angular position of controls is
output. Rotational controls for which the data
corresponding to the amount of their rotation is output
are called relative value controls.
2) Absolute value switches: Like toggle switches or
slide switches (except momentary switches), the
switches (or knobs) whose positions must coincide
with their functions are called absolute value switches.
When RM COMMON MEMORY on the CAM
CONFIG 2 page of the MAINTENANCE menu
is set to "ON", you can use settings of the paint
adjustment data stored in the independent data
region even if you connect the remote control
unit. In this case, the settings stored in the
independent data region will be renewed when
you change the settings on the remote control
unit. Thus, the settings of the paint data made
with the remote control unit can be retained even
if the remote control unit is removed. However, if
the switch position on the remote control unit
differs from the one on the camcorder, the switch
position on the camcorder takes precedence over
that on the remote control unit.
Also, it is possible to keep the settings that are in
effect before you connect the remote control unit.
In this case, you should set the control knob to the
relative value mode on the remote control unit.
For details, refer to the operation manual supplied
with the remote control unit.
