    The VTR can be operated by commands when the
    RS-232C interface is used.
    (See command table on pages 74, 75.)
    $Conditions for acknowledging
    commands from RS-232C interface
    OThe front panel CONTROL switch must be at
    REMOTE.
    OThe setup menu No. 204 “RS232C SEL” must be
    ON.
    If the above conditions are not met, [ACK] + [STX]
    ER001 [EXT] is returned to the external unit.
    Whether the [ACK] code is returned depends on the
    setting which has been selected for setup menu
    item No. 209 “RETURN ACK”.

    SDTI interface
    Digital data input/output operations using the SDTI
    format (compressed digital interface) are enabled by
    installing the AJ-YAC930G SDTI board (optional
    accessory) in this unit.
    
    SDTI (Serial Data Transport Interface) complies with
    the SMPTE 305M standard.
    The data stream format transferred via the SDTI
    complies with the SMPTE 321M standard.
    Precautions to observe when using the
    SDTI signals
    OThe unit can record only if the SDTI input signals
    are 1atransfer signals in the DVCPRO50 or
    DVCPRO format selected by setup menu No. 012
    (SYS FORMAT).
    However, when playback signals other than normal
    1aplayback signals have been input, there is no
    guaranty for the pictures and sound recorded or for
    pictures and sound with EE.
    OEditing operations can be performed only when all
    the video and audio signals as well as the time
    codes in the SDTI input signals are regular data
    based on the DVCPRO50 or DVCPRO format
    selected by setup menu No. 012 (SYS FORMAT).
    OCUE signals are not transferred by the SDTI
    interface.
    OSDTI dubbing is not possible from tapes recorded
    using the DV or DVCAM format. 
    Use SDI when dubbing tapes recorded in the DV or
    DVCAM format.
    OWhen playing back a DV or DVCAM format tape,
    DV compressed signals (Compliant with IEC61834-
    2.) serve as the SDTI output.
    OThe video and audio signals in the SDTI output
    signals cannot be adjusted.
    ODuring SLOW/STILL playback, the unprocessed
    video and audio signals are output as the SDTI
    output.
    When these video and audio signals are to be
    monitored using another device, they may differ
    from the video and audio signals played back by
    this unit.
