Timer Rec
(with HKSR-102 installed)
When the HKSR-102 Picture Cache Board is installed, a
Timer Rec function is available on this unit. This allows
you to utilize the memory in the option board to shoot
images at a specified interval. This enables time-lapse
recording and recording over long periods.
Cache Rec
(with HKSR-102 installed)
When the HKSR-102 Picture Cache Board is installed, a
Cache Rec function is available on this unit. This function
captures about 100 frames of the video and audio that the
camera is currently shooting (or about 200 frames in 50P
or 59P mode) to the memory in the option board. Thus,
when you press the recording start button (in standby on
mode), the recording starts with the data stored several
seconds before.
Monitor format conversions
This unit is capable of the following format conversions
for output to monitors.
• Color space conversion (RGB 4:4:4 t YCbCr 4:2:2)
• 2-3 pulldown (4:2:2 23.98PsF t 4:2:2 59.94i)
• Downconverter (1080i t SD 525i/625i)
• Dual link Pti conversion (1080 59.94P/50P t 2-line
linearly interpolated 1080 59.94i/50i)
When the RGB 4:4:4 format is selected, lookup tables
(LUT files) can be used to convert to 4:2:2 monitor output.
Versatile operating styles
Connected to the SRPC-1
This unit can be combined with the SRPC-1 to meet the
diverse I/O interface requirements of production
environments. Video signals can be input and output as
HD SDI or as Dual Link HD SDI. Monitor output of both
HD SDI and SD SDI is supported.
It is possible to record 12 audio channels selected from a
total of 20 channels which consists of 4 analog audio
channels, two sets of 4-channel AES/EBU audio, and 12
HD SDI channels.
The SRW-1 supports the SMPTE-291M/292M/296M/
299M/372M HD SDI standards.
Docked on the F23/F35
This unit features a dockable interface that can be
connected directly to the F23/F35 on either the top or rear
panels, as convenient.
When this unit is docked on the F23/F35 with installation
of the optional HKSR-102 board on a docked SRW-1
enables recording of smooth slow and quick motion in full
high-definition video (Select FPS function of SR Motion).
When the optional HKSR-102 and HKSR-103 are
installed, RGB 4:4:4 recording at 1080/60P is supported
for docked recording with the F23, and RGB 4:4:4
recording at 1080/50P is supported for docked recording
with the F35 (playback is 24P and 25P or 30P).
Transmission over optical-fiber cable
(with optional HKSR-101 installed)
When the optional HKSR-101 Optical Interface Unit is
installed, this unit can be connected to an F23/F35 Digital
Cinema Camera, an HDC-F950 HD Color Video Camera
or an ARRI D-20 camera by optical-fiber cable.
A single optical-fiber cable can receive HD 4:2:2
component video signals or HD 4:4:4 RGB video signals,
while simultaneously transmitting HD 4:2:2 component
video return signals to the camera. Audio signals and
control signals are multiplexed into video signals
transmitted over optical-fiber cable.
Note
Power cannot be supplied to a camera from this unit by
optical-fiber cable.
As player during video editing
This unit is equipped with an RS-422 remote control
interface. During video editing, you can use this unit as a
player in combination with a high-definition recorder VTR
(such as the SRW-5000/5500).
Removable control panel
The control panel is independent of the SRW-1 (VTR main
unit), allowing it to be installed in the most convenient
location in your operating environment. It can be held in
the hand and operated like a remote controller.

Other features

Internal timecode generator and reader
The internal timecode generator allows you to record
timecode (LTC, VITC, and user bit data) along with the
video and audio signals. The internal timecode reader
reads the recorded timecode (LTC ,VITC, and user bit
data) during playback.
Independent audio level adjustment
You can adjust audio levels independently while checking
peaks on all 12 audio channels.
Self diagnostics
When an error occurs, the system performs self diagnostics
and displays the cause.
