<1> "GPI Assign?" menu is added to the setup mode.
"GPI Assign?" menu is added to the setup mode. This menu enhances the GPI function of the DV40
by allowing you to select the function of pin 3 of the [GPI INPUT] connector on the DV40 rear panel
from among "PLAY", "REC" and "P I/O (Punch In/Out)".
Before using the [GPI INPUT] connector, set the "GPI Assign?" menu appropriately. You can select
the function of pin 3 when it receives a low pulse signal. There are following three options.
P I/O (Punch In/Out)
<Notes>
• When the " GPI Assign? " menu is set to " REC " but no " AUDIO RDY " indicator is
lit, the DV40 starts playback, instead of starting recording.
• When the " GPI Assign? " menu is set to " P I/O (Punch In/Out)", you can carry
out the punch in/out operation even if the DV40 is in the list play mode.
How to set the "GPI Assign?" menu
1. After entering the setup mode by pressing the [SETUP] key, select "GPI Assign?" menu using the
jog dial, then press the [ENTER/YES] key.
The currently selected option starts flashing and you can now select a desired option (by default,
