a REF. VIDEO IN (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.

b

S400 (i.LINK) connector (6-pin, IEEE1394

compliant)

Connect a DV device, computer, or similar, using an
i.LINK cable.
When the unit is shipped from the factory, the audio output
signal is set to 16 bit/48 kHz/2ch mode. You can change
the audio mode and output channel settings with extended
menu item 831 “DV OUT AUDIO MODE” and extended
menu item 828 “SDI/DV AUDIO OUTPUT SELECT.”

See 8-3-2 “Extended Menu Operations” (page 110) for
more information about how to make these settings.

Notes

• If video or audio signals from an external device

connected with the S400 (i.LINK) connector are not
output, disconnect the i.LINK cable and connect it again,
pushing it straight in.

• When the PDW-1500 is connected to a device with a 6-

pin i.LINK connector by an i.LINK cable, before
unplugging the i.LINK cable, first power off the device
and disconnect the power plug from the outlet. If the
i.LINK cable is unplugged with the device power plug
still connected, a current from an excessive voltage (8 to

40 V) output from the i.LINK connector of the device
flows into the PDW-1500. This may cause a failure of
the PDW-1500.

• When connecting the PDW-1500 to a device with a 6-pin

i.LINK connector, connect to the 6-pin i.LINK
connector of the other device first.

• Except in playback mode (jog and shuttle modes, etc.), if

you are monitoring the audio signal output from this
connector on another device, the audio signal may sound
differently from the audio signal played back on the
PDW-1500.

c REMOTE (remote control signal) connector (D-

sub 9-pin)

To control the PDW-1500 from a controller or VTR
supporting the RS-422A Sony 9-pin VTR protocol,
connect the device to this connector.

d

(network) connector (RJ-45 type)

This is a 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T connector
for network connection.

CAUTION

For safety, do not connect the connector for peripheral
device wiring that might have excessive voltage to this
port. Follow the instructions in this manual when making
connections.

e AUDIO MONITOR OUT connector (RCA-pin)
This outputs an audio signal for monitoring.
The monitored channel is selected by the combination of
the AUDIO MONITOR SEL button (see page 15) and
MONITOR switch (see page 15).
