Recording Video and Audio on an External Device
Procedure for recording on a VCR
Program video and audio are always output as SDI signals from the PGM SDI 
output connector.
Connect the VCR to the PGM SDI output connector and then start recording on 
the VCR.
If the video output signal format (NTSC/PAL) of this unit is changed, the format 
in which signals are output from the PGM SDI output connector also changes.
Recording Inputs on an External Hard Disk
You record the input source on an external hard disk connected to the i.Link 
connector (HDD) of the interface module.
With video input to an interface module to which an external hard disk drive is 
connected, and audio with the same source number as the video combined 
together, two inputs can be recorded simultaneously.
For details of formatting an external hard disk, see the section “Formatting an 
External Hard Disk” (page 179).
• It is not possible to record with an external recorder connected to the i.LINK 
connector (HDD).
• When recording on the hard disk, be sure to read the section “External Hard
