HKDW-101 Control Panel with BKMW-102 Case
User-friendly Control Panel
Operators with experience of Betacam, Betacam SX, MPEG IMX or Digital Betacam will be instantly
familiar with the operational controls of HDCAM VTRs and players. The layout of the tape transport
and editing controls has been refined over generations of Sony 1/2-inch VTRs. The control panel has
a multi-function display for quick access and easy control of the major operational functions.
Dedicated rotary controls and meter displays are included for each of the four audio channels.
An optional HKDW-101 control panel can be used in addition to the supplied control panel to
operate the VTR remotely.
Easy Maintenance
Most of the circuitry of the HDW-2000 Series is arranged on plug-in boards to allow quick and easy
maintenance. The drum assembly has been designed to achieve simple, low cost maintenance by
adopting an upper drum mechanism and an auto adjustment function. This significantly reduces the
time required for periodic drum replacement.
