The BKDW-515 Control Panel provides six menu
screens corresponding to the six operation modes to
allow fast and easy adjustment of necessary settings, as
well as the ability to store menu settings to a memory
card for later recall.

Six menus are displayed on the 90

function keys.

Use this menu to make the basic settings for recording,
playback, and editing operations, and to select
channels to be edited during insert editing.

Use this menu to make time code settings.

Use this menu to set up to 100 cue points.  In page
mode, 10 cue points per page can be set on a total of
10 pages.

Use these menus to register up to 40 of the most
frequently used items from the other menus (up to ten
items each can be registered to PF1, ALT

+

PF1, PF2

and ALT+PF2). Menu items that may be registered can
be displayed by pressing the 

[F4] (PF1&2 ASSIGN)

button in the SET UP menu.

• The VTR BANK menu allows up to eight pages of

menu settings to be saved.

• Use the MEMORY CARD menu to store current

settings of the VTR and up to 8 pages of the contents
of the VTR memory bank to a memory card.

• Use the scrollable PF1&2 ASSIGN menu to display

the items that can be registered in the PF1/PF2
menus, and to select and register the most frequently
used menu items.

• Use the scrollable VTR SETUP menu to display the

items necessary for making initial settings, and to
directly change settings without registering them with
the function buttons for each menu.

• Use the PANEL SETUP menu to set control panel

operations, such as the keyboard sound output.

Use this menu to access the maintenance functions.

These functions allow you to use titles to store and

recall menu settings in either the VTR’s internal
memory banks or memory cards.

These memory banks allow you to store up to eight

pages of VTR settings in addition to the current VTR
settings.  Factory settings are also stored here,
allowing the VTR to be reset to these values at any
time.

Each memory card can hold the current VTR settings

as well as up to eight pages of settings.  A single
memory card thus allows you to store and recall the
entire contents of the VTR memory banks.

This function allows you to add titles when storing

data to the VTR memory bank or memory card, thus
facilitating data retrieval and management.

Setting pages stored in VTR memory banks or

memory cards can be write protected on an individual
basis.

Two HDW-F500 units can be connected allowing

automatic or manual assembly and insertion.  The
VTR also features a full range of editing functions,
including preview, review, preroll, and the setting or
changing of edit points.
