AC IN connector
Use the specified power cord (not supplied) to connect this 
to an AC outlet.
REMOTE connector (D-sub 9-pin)
Use the optional 9-pin remote cable to connect an editing 
controller that supports this unit, or a VCR that supports 
editing with two units (DSR-2000A/2000AP, etc.), to 
connect those devices to this unit for remote control.
c
HDV/DV (HDV/DV input or output) connector 
(6-pin IEEE 1394)
This connector inputs and outputs digital video and audio 
signals in HDV/DVCAM/DV format.
Connect a nonlinear editor supported by this unit, or a 
VCR (DSR-2000A/2000AP or similar) with a two-deck 
editing function, using a 6-pin i.LINK cable (not supplied) 
to enable remote operation.
• If the unit is connected to a device equipped with a 6-pin 
HDV/DV jack, when you intend to disconnect or 
reconnect the i.LINK cable, turn off the device and pull 
out the plug of its power cord from the AC outlet 
beforehand. If you connect or disconnect the i.LINK 
cable while the device is connected to the AC outlet, 
high-voltage current (8 to 40 V) is output from the HDV/
DV jack of the device to this unit, which may cause a 
malfunction.
• When connecting a device that has a 6-pin HDV/DV 
jack to this unit, first connect the plug of the cable to the 
6-pin HDV/DV jack of the device.
• When searching at speeds in the range +1/2 to +1/30 or 
–1/30 to –1/2 times normal speed, the audio signal 
output from this connector and monitored on external 
equipment may sound differently from the audio signal 
played back on this unit.
MONITOR  AUDIO connector (RCA phono jack)
This connector outputs audio signals for monitoring. The 
audio signals to be output from this connector can be 
selected with the MONITOR SELECT butto(see 
page 12)
.
REF. (reference) VIDEO IN (SD/HD) (loop-
through output) connectors (BNC type)
Input a reference video signal. The two connectors are 
loop-through connectors. You can connect the reference 
video signal input to the left connector to other equipment 
via the right connector (marked 
 ). When no 
connection is made to the right connector, the left 
connector is terminated with an impedance of 75 
Ω
 
automatically.
