Operations

Recording the Video/
Audio of a Camcorder/
Recorder
You can create a proxy file* from the video and audio
signals that are input from the SDI IN connector. You
can then record the proxy file on an optional SD card by
interlocking to the recording start/stop operation of a
camcorder/recorder that is compatible with the wireless
adapter.
* When the proxy file is recorded automatically by
interlocking to a camcorder/recorder that is compatible with
the wireless adapter, the proxy file inherits the information
and size from the original file. When the proxy file is
recorded manually, or recorded by a device that is not
compatible with the wireless adapter, the proxy file does not
inherit the information and size from the original file.

Preparations

This section explains about an SD card that is used for
recording, and the format setting for the proxy file.

Notes
• Data integrity is not guaranteed if the power is turned
off or a memory card is removed while it is being
accessed. Data on the card may be destroyed. The
wireless adapter does not have any salvage function to
recover the damaged material. Be sure that the
wireless adapter is turned off before you remove an
SD card. Be sure that the STATUS indicator lights in
light green and the REC indicator is turned off before
you turn off the power.
• Make sure that the card does not pop out when
inserting or removing it.
Format setting for the recorded proxy file
The format is set to "640 × 360" (3 Mbps (VBR)) as
default. To change the setting, see "Format Settings"
(page 20)

Recording

The proxy file can be recorded automatically by
interlocking to the recording start/stop operation of the
camcorder/recorder or recorded manually.
To record by interlocking to the
camcorder
The wireless adapter can be used to record a proxy file
of the video/audio of camcorders PMW-500/PMW-400/
PMW-300/PMW-200/PMW-160/PMW-150 (or other
device able to send Rec/Stop control signals in an HD-
SDI signal) by interlocking with recording start/stop
operations. (The REC indicator lights in red while
recording.)
When the recording is stopped on the camcorder, the
wireless adapter stops recording automatically. (The
REC indicator turns off.)
For camcorders that are compatible with the wireless
adapter, the recorded proxy file inherits the information
and size from the original file that is recorded on the
camcorder.
Note
• To interlock to the recording start/stop operation of the
camcorder, you need to set the camcorder to the "HD-
SDI Remote Rec." To record the proxy file that
inherits the information and size from the original,
you need to set the "Parallel REC" and "Match Clip
Name" settings on the menu of the camcorder. For
