Chapter 8  Connecting to External Devices
Functionality Provided by Connections to USB 2.0 Connector
Connecting to a computer in USB 
device mode
A USB 2.0 connection to a computer or other device allows 
you to use P2 cards in the camera as mass storage. 
Procedures for making connections to a 
computer 
1 Connect aUSB cable tothe USB.0 connector. 
 NOTE
•   A USB 2.0 cable is not supplied with the AG-HPX300P. 
Use a commercially available USB cable that supports 
USB 2.0 (a shielded cable with a ferrite core). 
•  
The camera supports USB cable lengths up to 5 
meters. However, we recommend use of a USB cable 
shorter than 3 meters.

Note that the USER button functions are not available 
when the menu is open.
To make a USB connection, you must first install the P2 
software on the supplied CD-ROM on the computer. Select 
the “AG-HPX300” driver. This USB driver supports only 
the Windows operating system. For details, refer to the 
installation manual. 
 NOTE
•   A USB driver must be installed on the computer. 
•  Use a computer that supports USB 2.0 since the camera 
supports only USB 2.0. 
•  Connect only one camera to a computer via USB. 
•  Do not remove P2 cards when the camera is connect to a 
computer via USB. 
•  In a USB connection, the P2 CARD ACCESS LED is on only 
when the card is accessed.
•  In USB device operation, recording, playback and clip 
thumbnail operations are not available.
•  
When a USB device is running, the remaining capacity of P2 
cards is not indicated. Audio is not output through the SDI 
OUT or DVCPRO/DV connector and the AUDIO level meters 
do not appear.

been assigned. 
 USB host mode
This mode allows you to connect the camera to a hard 
disk drive that supports USB 2.0 to save card data, view 
thumbnails of the stored clips and write data back to P2 
cards.

•  Make sure that USB HOST appears at the bottom 
right of the screen. 
•  When the camera is connected to a hard disk 
drive, the HDD icon appears at the top right of 
the screen. If the icon lights red this indicates that 
data cannot be copied to or from the hard disk. 
Check hard disk drive type. 
For details on hard disk drives, refer to [Thumbnail 
Screen] (page 102). 
 NOTE
The USB host mode allows playback of P2 cards but 
not recording of camera video or external input. 
And clips on the hard disk must be written back to a P2 
card before they can be played back. 
For details, refer to [Writing back data to P2 cards] 
(page 143). 
3 TerminatingUSBhostmode.
Use one of the following three methods.
• Set the camera POWER switch to OFF.

 NOTE
•   
This camera supports USB bus power (5.V, 0.5A) but some 
hard disks may not be able to use USB bus power. Such hard 
disk drives should be provided with a separate power supply. 
•   Do not connect a hard disk to hubs or other connections 
that involve multiple units even if it is not powered on.  Do 
not connect other devices to the hard disk drive via a hub or 
other device.
