Making DCU Serial Port Settings
You can assign buttons in the device control block (DEV1 to DEV12) to DCU
serial ports, to operate the devices (disk recorder/VTR/Extended VTR)
connected to these ports. For a disk recorder/Extended VTR, you can also set
the sharing of file lists.
For details of DCU serial port settings, see "Serial Port Settings (Serial Port
Assign Menu)" (page 1088).
