Recording Video and Audio on an External Device

If you use the DV connector and i.LINK connector of the SD interface module 
(BKAW-570) or the PGM SDI output connector and i.LINK connector of the 
serial digital interface module (BKAW-580), the program output from the unit 
and sources input to the unit can be recorded on a VTR or external hard disk. 

The DV connector, i.LINK connector, and PGM SDI output connector support 
different devices and recording data. 

DV connector (DV IN/OUT DV PGM): connect a VCR, to record the program 

output video and audio.

i.LINK connector (HDD): connect an external hard disk, to record the video and 

audio input (page 144).

PGM SDI output connector (SDI OUT): connect an SDI input compatible 

VTR to record program output video and audio. 

If a signal subjected to special processing is input to the synchronization signal, 
normal recording may not be possible.

By connecting a VCR to the DV connector (DV IN/OUT) of the SD interface 
module (BKAW-570) on the rear panel, you can record the program output video 
in DV format.

To begin recording to a VCR, select the DV connector to be used for recording.

If a DV connector is set to be used for recording, the recording of material input 
from the composite video input connector and S-video input connector of the 
same module is no longer possible. 

Connect the VCR to the DV connector.

Depending on the model of VCR, signal input/output settings may be 
required. Refer to the Operating Instructions for the device to be connected.

Press the MENU button.

In the top menu, select [DV Output].
