You can connect two DSR-70/70P units and carry out
parallel recording between them.
Parallel recording using two DSR-70/70P units can be
performed in the following two ways.
(In the following explanation of two-unit parallel
recording, the controlling unit is referred to as the
recorder and the controlled unit as the player.)
• Inputting an external timecode to both the player and
recorder.
• Inputting the timecode generated by the recorder to
the player.
1
Insert two recording tapes in the recorder and
player.
2
When inputting the timecode generated in the
rocorder to the player, make the required settings
for timecode on the recorder.

section "Setting an Initial Value and Recording
Timecode" on page 63.

Press the RECORDER button or PLAYER button
on the recorder, lighting both the RECORDER and
