Overview
This unit is a hard disk storage unit specifically designed for P2 cards.
The data recorded on P2 cards can be copied at high speed from the units P2 drive onto HDDs.
However, data cannot be written onto the P2 cards.
● Easy to use
  Designed to enable all operations from the touch 
panel. 
● Supports two HDDs
  It is now possible to ensure the safety of the data 
thanks to mirroring.● Network  ready

Precautions for Use
Points to bear in mind when destroying or 
transferring the P2 cards or hard disk drives
Formatting memory cards or hard disk drives 
(hereafter HDDs) or deleting data on them using the 
format or delete function on the unit or on a computer 
will only change the file management data--it will not 
completely delete the data on the memory cards or 
HDDs. It is recommended either that the memory 
cards or HDDs be physically destroyed or that a data 
erasure software program for computers available 
on the market be used to completely delete the data 
on the memory cards or HDDs. Note that managing 
the memory card and HDD data is the owners 
responsibility.This product is licensed under the AVC Patent

A Battery  holder
You can install the battery directly if it is compatible 
with Anton Bauer battery holders.
•  Charge the battery with the battery charger before 
using it. (For details on the charging methods, 
refer to the operating instructions concerned.)
•  When replacing the battery plate or installing the 
V-mount type adapter plate, consult your dealer.
•  When installing the battery plate, take care not to 
sandwich or pinch the connecting wires.
B Cooling  fan

 DC-IN  connector
This DC-IN connector (XLR 4 pin) is used with an 
external DC power supply.
Use an external DC power supply with a rated 
value of 100 W or more.
D
 Rear POWER switch
Use this switch to turn the power ON or OFF when 
an external DC power supply or battery is used.
• When the switch is ON, the power (about 2W) is 
still consumed in idle state. Always turn the power 
OFF when the unit is not used.
• If the switch is set to OFF during HDD operations, 
it may cause HDD failure. Set the switch OFF after 
normal shutdown.
E Rear POWER LED

Back Panel
F LAN  connector
These LAN connectors support speeds of 1000, 
100 and 10 Mbps.
Please set the IP address in GUI of this unit. 
(page 38)
● Use of external DC power supply
Make sure that the output voltage of the external DC 
power supply meets the rated voltage of the unit before 
connecting the power supply.
Inrush current occurs when the unit is turned on, 
and insufficient power at this time may damage the 
unit. Thus, we recommend using an external DC 
power supply rated at least 100 W. Use the DC cable 
recommended for the external DC power supply.
•  When using an external power supply other 
than the AC adapter, check the DC IN socket pin 
information to ensure correct polarity. If a +12 V 
power supply is accidentally connected to the GND 
terminal, this could cause a fire or personal injury.

•  When both the battery and the external DC power 
supply are connected, power is supplied from the 
external DC power supply. The battery can be 
removed or mounted while using an external DC 
power supply.
•  When using an external DC power supply, make sure 
you turn on the external DC power supply before 
turning on the unit’s power switch.
