Several settings have to be configured before a recording can begin. These include the selection
of the recording format, the frame rate (fps) and the corresponding shutter speed.

5. Pressing the "Rec.mode" line opens a window containing two different " record modes": Ring
Buffer and Squence.
Once a mode is selected, it is applied and the window closes automatically.
6. When working in "FAST RAW MODE SL" the sub menu "Output" offers signal adjustment op-
tions for the HD-SDI LINK A and LINK B outputs:
108050i(singlelink) - offers an identical output of a 50i signal on LINK A and B
108050p(dualstream) - generates a 50p signal split between LINK A and B (50i stream
each). Two BNC cables are neccessary to setup this connection between camera and the par-
ticular recorder. The recorder must support 50p Dual Stream as well as must be setup for this
incoming signal.
The most important settings have now been configured under the SETTINGS menu.
These basic settings are sufficient for beginning a recording as described in the following step.
7. Select "CLOSE" at the upper right to return to the main menu. All settings are saved automati-
cally until changed or until the camera is switched off.
