24 Connector area 1 EDL connector (D-SUB 9P) Connect a personal computer or other external unit to this connector to upload and download the edit data. 2 TC IN connector (BNC) The external time code signal (LTC) is supplied to this connector. 3 REF VIDEO IN connectors (BNC a 2, loop- through) These are automatically terminated with a 75 Ω resistance. Supply standard analog composite signals to these connectors. The unit’s video output will be synchronized with the input signals. 4 DC IN connector (XLR 4P) This is the DC power input socket. The AJ-B95, available as an optional accessory must be used for the power supply. No guarantees are made when the unit is operated by any other power supply. 5 VIDEO/Y IN connector (BNC) The analog composite signals or analog component Y (luminance) signals are supplied to this connector. The signals are selected using setup menu item No.670 (V IN SEL). 6 P B/PRIN connectors (BNC) The analog component P Band PRsignals are supplied to these connectors.7 REMOTE connector (D-SUB 9P) (525i mode only) This remote connector complies with the RS-422A standard. It enables the unit to be controlled using an external controller. The remote connector of VTR1 is switched to the REMOTE OUT connector by setting the CONTROL switch to “EXT VTR”. An externally connected VTR can then be controlled using the unit’s VTR1 operation system. 8 VIDEO/Y OUT connector (BNC) The analog composite signals or analog component Y (luminance) signals are output from this connector. The signals are selected using setup menu item No.671 (V OUT SEL). 9 P B/PROUT connectors (BNC) These are the output connectors for the analog component P Band PRsignals. : VIDEO MONITOR OUT/TC OUT connector (BNC) The video monitor signals are output from this connector.

28 Connector area EF AUDIO MONITOR OUT connectors (XLR) These are the audio monitor output connectors. Their output signals can be changed by setting the AUDIO MONITOR SELECT switches. $Concerning the audio output selected for the audio monitor connectors, internal speakers and headphones jack (front panel) Which channels of which VTR, either VTR1 or VTR2, are to be selected for the audio signals which are to be output to the audio monitor connectors, internal speakers and headphones jack can be changed by setting the AUDIO MONITOR SELECT switches on the keyboard to support many audio monitoring options. OThe same signals from the same channels of the same VTR are output to audio monitor connector L, the internal speaker on the left side and headphones L. Similarly, the same signals from the same channels of the same VTR are output to audio monitor connector R, the internal speaker on the right side and headphones R. Different signals cannot be set for the connector, speaker and headphones. OWhen the headphones are plugged into the headphones jack on the front panel, the sound from the internal speakers is automatically cut off. OThe level control (by the side of the liquid crystal monitor) on the front panel is used to adjust the sound through the internal speakers and headphones. This control cannot be used to adjust the level of audio signals which are output to the audio monitor connectors.Setting method Setting is possible when “V1+V2” has been selected as the setup menu item No.772 (AUTO MONI) setting. 1. To output the VTR1 sound to the L connector and the VTR2 sound to the R connector OSet the V1/V1•2/V2 switch to “V1•2”. OUse the L (V1) switch to select the VTR1 audio channel whose sound is to be output to the L connector. OUse the R (V2) switch to select the VTR2 audio channel whose sound is to be output to the R connector. Audio mixing is possible for channels 1 and 2 or for channels 3 or 4. No other combination of channels can be mixed. 2. To output the VTR1 sound to both the L and R connectors OSet the V1/V1•2/V2 switch to “V1”. OUse the L (V1) switch to select the VTR1 audio channel whose sound is to be output to the L connector. OUse the R (V2) switch to select the VTR1 audio channel whose sound is to be output to the R connector. In this mode, stereo sound consisting of VTR1 channels 1 and 2 can be produced by selecting “1” using the L (V1) switch and “2” using the R (V2) switch. 3. To output the VTR2 sound to both the L and R connectors OSet the V1/V1•2/V2 switch to “V2”. OUse the L (V1) switch to select the VTR2 audio channel whose sound is to be output to the L connector. OUse the R (V2) switch to select the VTR2 audio channel whose sound is to be output to the R connector. In this mode, stereo sound consisting of VTR2 channels 1 and 2 can be produced by selecting “1” using the L (V1) switch and “2” using the R (V2) switch.
