Panasonic Memory Card Camera Recorder Ajhpx3000g Operating Instructions

							11GeneralFeatures of the Input/Output unit
 General
(Reference values when cards are used for continuous
recording with our products. Actual recording time depends
on the kind of scenes and the number of clips.)
The driver installed on the unit must be updated when
using SD memory cards other than as listed above. To
update the driver, refer to [Updating the firmware
incorporated into the camera-recorder] (page 193)
For the latest information on P2 cards and SD memory
cards not available in the operating Instructions, visit the
P2 Support Desk at the following Web sites.
https://eww.pavc.panasonic.co.jp/pro-av/
_Features USB2.0 port (HOST/DEVICE)
By connecting with a PC via USB2.0, a P2 card inserted
in AJ-HPX3000 can be used as a bulk storage device.
It is also possible to store data on a P2 card onto a USB
2.0-connected external hard disk equipped with USB
host capability as well as view clips stored on hard disks
and write them to P2 cards. (Refer to page 135)
_DVCPRO (IEEE1394) input/output provided as a 
standard configuration
Data can be input/output to an external device through
the IEEE1394 digital interface. Use a 6-pin type
connector. The unit does not support the bus power.
While operating AVC-Intra, it is impossible to input/
output data with IEEE 1394. (Refer to page 133)
_HD/SD SDI output featured as standard
Video can be output as HD SDI signals, down-converted
SD SDI signals, or analog composite signals. SDI output
includes embedded audio etc.. (Refer to page 44) Note
that the SD mode does not output HD SDI signals.
_Down converter output provided as a standard 
configuration
In HD mode, the MON OUT output connector and the
VIDEO OUT connector (in setting VBS mode) output
down converter (analog composite) signals. 
It is optimum for confirming shot images on the SD
monitor. (Refer to page 44)
_HD/SD SDI input function (when the AJ-
YA350AG is attached)
The camera-recorder with the AJ-YA350AG extension
board attached can record SDI signals input through the
SDI input connector only if the signals are in the same
format as the camera-recorder.  
(The unit does not support the various Native methods.)
_Remote control connector
By connecting the remote control unit (AJ-RC10G),
which is available as an optional accessory, the unit can
be controlled remotely. (Refer to page 111)
_Confirmation of return video signals
It is possible to confirm the return video signals (analog
HD-Y signals in the HD mode/VBS or Y signals in the
SD mode) supplied to the GENLOCK IN connector of
AJ-HPX3000 in the viewfinder to confirm programs.
(Only video signals from the same record format can be
confirmed.) (Refer to page 178)
_DC OUT connector
The DC OUT connector of the unit produces 1.5 A of
electrical current.
By connecting an external switch to this connector, it is
possible to control REC start/stop.
Since a tally lamp can be used by connecting the LED 
to this connector, it is useful for shooting video when
fixing the camera on a crane. (Refer to page 112)

_Viewfinder connection
From the viewfinder connector of the unit, 1080-59.94i,
1080-50i, 480-59.94i or 576-50i signals are output.
Furthermore, signals are output for switching the
frequencies of the connected viewfinder.
Confirm images in multi formats by connecting the
viewfinder (AJ-HVF21G), which is available as an
optional accessory. (Refer to page 28)
While the AJ-VF20WBP (59.94 Hz)/E (50 Hz) can also
be connected, you cannot view video in formats with
different frequencies.
_User button
On the side panel of the unit, three user buttons (USER
MAIN/USER1/USER2) are available.
Each button can be assigned the on/off function for any
frequently used feature selected from among the many
features of the unit, such as P2 card slot select (Refer to
page 51).

the AUTO KNEE function reproduces the background clearly. 
This function is effective when:
The subject is a person positioned in the shade under a clear 
sky.
The subject is a person inside a car or building, and you also 
want to capture the background visible through a window.
The subject is a high-contrast scene.

MEM:Video from the camera is output during
recording or when recording is paused or
playback signals are output from the P2 card
during playback.
CAM:Video from the camera is output constantly.
OFF:Video is not output, and the camera-recorder
operates in power-saving mode. 
Note that the audio output is synchronised with the
video.

SIGNAL menu option, the output signals are the
same as for MEM even if the switch is set to CAM.
