SETUP TAB
The Setup tab (Figure 6-4) provides several general
settings for HD Express operation.
Default Mode
As explained in chapter 5, "HD Express Basics"
(page 23), HD Express has two modes of
operation: Capture and Playback. Your host video
software determines the mode, depending on what
you are doing (i.e. capturing or playing back the
timeline). The Default Mode setting (Figure 6-1)
lets you choose which mode the HD Express enters
when the host relinquishes control over the
HD Express hardware, such as when you quit or
switch out of your host software. If you spend most
of your time just monitoring or just capturing,
operation will be faster if you set this to the mode
you expect to use most.

Capture Clock Source
The Capture Clock Source setting (Figure 6-4) lets
you specify the timing reference for the
HD Express when it is in Capture mode. Two
choices are provided in the menu, as shown below
in Figure 6-5:

Source menu (Figure 6-3).
