CompactFlash Slots (2): Insert (at least 1) solid-state Compact Flash card(s) face up for
record and playback.
CompactFlash LEDs: Compact Flash Status:

Remote Control / LTC input: 10-pin hirose locking connector for external trigger and tally light
control. To use Remote for recording: press tally once to start record, press and hold for 2 to
3 seconds to stop record. To use Remote for playing: press once to start play, once to pause,
twice in quick succession to stop Play. See System->Trigger for uses, or pg 27 for pin-out.
Also can be used for Linear Timecode input. Tally light flashes once a second during normal
record, twice a second during record with less than 5 minutes total record time remaining, 4
times per second with less than 1 minute total record time remaining. (ver1.5.31)
Power: 4-pin Hirose locking connector power input.
On/Off (Red): power button. Note that units shipped after October 2009 have the power
button disabled or removed, so that the nanoFlash always powers on when power is applied,
and only powers off when power is removed. See System->Power Saving to help reduce
power consumption.
HDMI In: non-locking mini-HDMI input (HD/SD) . Please note that the HDMI port is not nearly
as robust as the SDI port for handling high motion environments, and therefore the HDMI input
is not recommended for use in such conditions. Also, be careful if using with HDMI switchers,
a poor quality switcher can cause nanoFlash to frequently lose the video lock.
HDMI Out: non-locking mini-HDMI output (HD only) . Ideally, to use, do not connect this port
until after the unit has been powered on. (ver1.5.31)
SDI/ASI In: SDI or ASI video source for recording. (HD/SD)
SDI/ASI Out: SDI re-clocked stream with embedded audio and time code, or ASI re-clocked
output stream. Note there is no delay in the SDI output in E to E mode (Video->E to E) from a
live source. If E to E is turned "off", there is a bit of delay (4 frames). (HD/SD)
Analog Audio In: 3.5 mm consumer line level or microphone 2 channel stereo input.
Headphone Out: 3.5 mm headphone audio output. No delay in Headphone Out from a live
source. Also, headphone out provides 2 rising beeps at record start, 2 falling beeps at stop.
