PERSONALITY
Using this command, you can select between Native Mode, which uses Odetics extensions in the RS-422
protocol, and BVW-75, which equates to a Sony BVW 75 protocol.
Note: If you want to use BVW-75 Mode, you must use this for record and playback. If you record in
Native Mode, your material will not be available to you when you switch to BVW-75 Mode, as the
information in Native Mode is all related to a record index.
UNDERRUN
If you are running a compression ratio which is higher than the disk can handle you may select RECOVER
which will continue to record in the event that frames are dropping or STOP which will automatically stop
recording.
