To treat the input and output signals of these connectors as
non-audio signals, set the maintenance menu item M37:
AUDIO CONFIG >M372: NON-AUDIO INPUT
(recording) (see page 120) and setup menu item 823 NON-
AUDIO FLAG PB (playback).
h COMPOSITE OUTPUT 1, 2 (SUPER) (analog
composite video output 1, 2 (superimpose))
connectors (BNC type)
Output analog composite video signals. You can
superimpose timecodes, menu settings, or error messages
on the output of the 2 (SUPER) connector when CHAR
SEL on the HOME page of the function menu is set to ON.
See “Basic Operations of the Function Menu” on page 42
for more information about the CHAR SEL setting.
i REF.VIDEO INPUT (reference video signal input)
connectors (BNC type)
The two connectors form a loop-through connection; when
a reference video signal is input to the left connector, the
same signal is input from the right connector (
) to a
connected device. When no connection is made to the right
connector, the left connector is automatically terminated
with an impedance of 75 ohms.
j (network) connector (RJ-45 type)
This is a 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T
connector for network connection.
For safety, do not connect the connector for peripheral
device wiring that might have excessive voltage to this
port. Follow the instructions for this port.
k MAINTENANCE connectors
These are the USB connectors for maintenance.
Connect a Windows USB keyboard or mouse (see
page 69), or a USB flash drive to access planning metadata
stored on the drive (see page 80).
l SDSDI OUTPUT 1, 2 (SUPER) (SDI signal outputs
1, 2 (superimpose)) connectors (BNC type)
These output SDSDI format video/audio signals.
When the unit is shipped from the factory, audio signal
output is eight channels with no switching, and RP188
timecode output is set to on. You can change these settings
with setup menu item 828 SDI AUDIO OUTPUT
SELECT and setup menu item 920 SD-SDI H-ANC
CONTROL.
The output from the 2 (SUPER) connector can have
timecode, menu settings, alarm messages, and other text
information superimposed. To turn superimposition off,
set CHAR SEL on the HOME page of the function menu
to “OFF”.
See “Items in the extended menu” (page 107) for more
information.
See “Basic Operations of the Function Menu” (page 42)
for more information.
