Monitor problems

Cause

Remedy

Data is not
superimposed on the
monitor screen.

The CHARA. DISPLAY menu item is
set to OFF.

Set the CHARA. DISPLAY menu item

(see page 61) to ON.

The monitor is not connected to the

Connect the monitor to the B

−Y/CPST (SUPER) connector.

(You must make this connection to display any type of text on
the monitor.)

The image on the
monitor screen is too
bright.

The 75

Ω termination switch for video

input on the monitor is in the OFF
position, or a 75

Ω terminator is not

fitted to its video input connector.

Set the 75

Ω termination switch to ON or connect a

terminator.

The image on the
monitor screen is too
dark.

In a video signal loop-through
connection of video monitors, 75

termination switches for video input on
monitors other than the loop-end
monitor are in the ON position.

Set the 75

Ω termination switches to OFF on all monitors

other than the loop-end monitor.

The image is too dark
when recording a
composite video
signal.

Audio problem

Symptom

Cause

Remedy

The REC/PB LEVEL
control knobs do not
work.

The VAR switch on the front panel is
set to PRESET.

Set the VAR switch to REC when recording, or set it to PB
when playing back.

Editing restriction

Symptom

Cause

Execution of video
editing in insert mode
erases subcode data
(user bit data, etc.)
recorded on tape other
than time code data.

This phenomenon cannot be avoided with an editing system using this unit as the recorder.
