Flexible Audio Outputs
Both the J-H1 and J-H3 provide two channels
of analogue audio output, available from either
the XLR or phono connectors located on the
rear panel. A headphone socket is also pro-
vided on the front panel. The audio channels
to be output from the analogue outputs and
headphone socket can be selected from
Ch 1/2, Ch 3/4 and the Cue track. Audio is
automatically muted for off-speed playback
and non-data playback.
Additional J-H3 Features –
Extending Applications in Post
Production
The J-H3 offers additional features specifically
designed to improve its suitability for post
production. These include:
■ Reference input (HD/SD switchable)
■ RS-422A
■ Time code output
■ Pull down function to convert 1080/23.98PsF
to 1080/59.94i and 525/59.94i

HD and SDI Outputs
For Connection to High Grade Monitors
The J-H1 and J-H3 are equipped with an ana-
logue Y/Pb/Pr component output (BNC x 3)
for connection to an HD picture monitor. The
J-H3 also offers HD-SDI and SD-SDI outputs
for high quality monitoring and feeding to SD
and HD non-linear editors. AES/EBU audio
and non-audio data are embedded in the dig-
ital outputs.
Built-in Down-converter
For Connection to Standard Definition
Monitors
Both the J-H1 and J-H3 have a built-in down-
converter, offering NTSC or PAL composite
video output from the BNC and RCA output
connectors. HDCAM-originated content can
be down-converted for viewing on a Standard
Definition monitor or for subsequent post pro-
duction in the SD domain.
i.LINK connection may not communicate with others. Please refer
to the documentation that comes with an i.LINK-equipped device
for information on compatibility, operating conditions and proper
connection.

RGB Computer Display Interface
For Connection to Computer Displays
The J-H1 and J-H3 are equipped with an RGB
computer display interface to output HDCAM-
originated content at XGA resolution. The
pixel count of an XGA display is 1024 x 768,
so the HDCAM image is "letterboxed" to
1024 x 577 pixels. Alternatively, the players
can be connected to an XGA-capable data
projector for review of material or for formal
presentations.
i.LINK* Interface
"Single-Cable" Transmission of Video, Audio
and Time Code
An optional HKJ-101 i.LINK interface board
can be installed into the J-H1 and J-H3. This
can feed down-converted HDCAM material as
25 Mb/s DV data, with audio and time code,
via a single i.LINK interface cable.
This DV-output can be connected to a
DVCAM deck for dubbing of HDCAM material
to DVCAM tape**. It also allows a direct
connection to DV-based non-linear editors for
low-cost off-line editing.
** Assemble or Insert editing functions cannot be used.
