Connections To The Dvcpro/Dv Connector; Recording Signals Input To The Dvcpro/Dv Connector - Panasonic AGHPX255 Operating Instructions Manual

Connections to the DVCPRO/DV connector

Recording signals input to the
DVCPRO/DV connector
1
Connect a 1394 cable (DV cable).
• "Precautions in 1394 connections" (Page 107)
• Make sure that the signal format of the
camera-recorder and the connected device is
the same.
2
To route inputs via the IEEE1394 interface,
set the menu option REC SIGNAL in the
SYSTEM SETUP screen to 1394.
• To use HD (1080i, 720P) set the menu option
REC FORMAT in the SYSTEM SETUP
screen to DVCPRO HD/60i (DVCPRO
HD/50i) or DVCPRO HD/60P (DVCPRO
HD/50P).
The AVC-Intra format and DVCPRO HD
native recording do not allow input via the
IEEE1394 interface.
3
Check that video from the IEEE 1394
interface is displayed in the viewfinder or
LCD monitor, and press the START/STOP
button to begin recording.
4
Press the START/STOP button again to stop
recording.
• Signals that have the same format as that
set in the menu options SYSTEM MODE
and REC FORMAT in the SYSTEM SETUP
screen should be input to the IEEE1394
interface. A signal in a different format will
not be correctly recorded on a P2 card.
Video and audio recording and EE type
video and audio of signal inputs other than
1x speed playback signals may not work.
· "Errors and warnings" (Page 126)
• Audio signal inputs are input signals from
the DVCPRO/DV connector.
• 32 kHz/4CH (12 bit) audio signals input via
the IEEE1394 interface are recorded as
48 kHz/4CH (16 bit) on a P2 card.
• It is not possible to use the GENLOCK IN
connector to synchronize to an external
reference signal.
• Signals output from the VIDEO OUT
or AUDIO OUT connectors differ from
actual input signals. Use such signals for
monitoring.
• The following functions do not operate.
· Pre-recording function
· Loop recording function
· Interval recording and one-shot recording
function
· One-clip recording function
• As well as those displayed in blue, there
are other items on the setting menu for
which the setting value cannot be changed.
However, this is not a fault and these items
are not related to this function.
Time Code and User Bits
• When input from the IEEE1394 interface is
selected, the time code and user's bit input from
TC IN/OUT cannot be recorded on P2 card.
• When input from the IEEE1394 interface is
selected, the time code output from TC IN/OUT
is not synchronized with the video signal output
from the VIDEO OUT terminal.
