AJ-HPX2000 can be connected to a hard disc drive that
supports USB 2.0 to store data from cards on it, view
thumbnails for stored clips, and write data back to P2
cards.

By navigating the menu, set the PC MODE SELECT
menu option on the SYSTEM MODE screen to USB
HOST, then the PC MODE option to ON. This will
place the camera-recorder in USB HOST mode.

z

When the camera-recorder is in USB HOST mode,
the viewfinder indicates “USB HOST” and the USB
LED on the side panel stays illuminated. If the hard
disc drive is not properly connected, then the LED
blinks.

When a user button is assigned the PC MODE on/
off switching capability, you can press that user
button to switch between the normal and USB
HOST modes. For information about how to assign

Press the THUMBNAIL button to go to the thumbnail
screen. Check to see that the screen indicates “USB
HOST” in the lower right corner. When a hard disc
drive is connected, the HDD indication in the upper
right corner stays illuminated.

However, if this indicator

illuminates red, it means that the hard disk drive cannot
be copied. Confirm the hard disk drive type.

For information about the HDD indication, see
[Thumbnail Screen] (page 110).

Note

In USB HOST mode, clips on P2 cards can be displayed
but video from the camera or an external device cannot be
recorded. Clips written to a hard disc must be written back
to a P2 card before it can be played back. For information
about how to write clips back to P2 cards, see [

Notes

z

While the USB HOST mode supports USB bus power
(5V, 0.5A), some hard disc drives may not activate. If this
is the case, power must be supplied in a different way.

z

Do not connect multiple units through a hub, even for a
hard disk drive where the power is turned off.
Even with devices other than a hard disk drive, do not
connect to the drive together with the hard disk drive
through a hub.

z

The unit does not support a hard disk drive of 2 TB or
more.
