Note
• When "external switcher" is selected:
The operation on the VTR is treated as editing operation when the unit receives a CONFI ON control signal from the control
panel or a remote controller.
At this time, playback signal phase is identical to that of the video input or video signal from the external switcher.
When CONFI play is disabled by setting of the item 316 (MODE 3: REC ONLY), the phase of the playback signal is identical
to that of the output phase in E-E mode.
• When using an editor such as the BVE-800:
Some editors such as the BVE-800 do not operate CONFI ON control (selecting a playback head) when editing.
When using these units and this setting is "external switcher", shifting of picture or muting/discontinuity in the audio may
occur at the IN point/OUT point when editing.
When this problem occurs, set this item to "internal", or set the VTR to CONFI ON mode through the VTR control panel.
However, the editing result is normal no matter what this setting is.
