Sony EV-C500E - Synchronized Editing Setup

Synchronized Editing
Notes
* When connecting two VCRs, do
not connect them so that both
VCRs are used as a recording
VCR and a playback VCR
simultaneously. Doing so may
cause a humming noise.
* Ifyour playback VCR is equipped
with the S VIDEO output
connector, you can use the S
VIDEO cable (not supplied) to
connect to the LINE IN S VIDEO
connector on this VCR. This
connection gives you a higher
quality picture than using the video
cable.
« When you use the LINE IN VIDEO
jack and the LINE IN S VIDEO
connector at the same time, the
LINE IN S VIDEO connector has
priority.
« Myour playback VCR is a monaural
unit, connect the white plug to
LINE IN AUDIO L on this VCR and
leave the red piug unplugged. This
lets you record the sound of the
playback VCR on both channels of
this VCR. Do not connect the white
plug to LINE IN AUDIO R.
* Ifyour playback VCR is a EURO
21-pin type, use the VMC-216
cable (not supplied).
* lf another VCR has both the LANC
connector and the CONTROL S
connector, use the LANC
connector. Do not make the LANC
and CONTROL S connections
simultaneously.
About the @ (LANC)
LANC stands for Local Application
Control System.
The LANC connector is used for
controlling the tape transport of
video equipment and peripherals
connected to it. This connector
has the same function as the
connectors indicated as
CONTROL L or REMOTE.
If your other VCR has a control L @ or contro! S connector, you can take advantage of
a feature called “Synchronized Editing” that controls both VCRs (recording VCR and
playback VCR), and releases the pause when SYNCHRO EDIT is pressed. To use
this function, you must connect a designated control cable (Contro! L or S cable) in
addition to the connections of the audio and video cables.
There are two types of control cables: control L (REMOTE) cable and control S cable
according to the type of connectors of the VCRs.
After you have made the connections on this and following pages, you must set the
LANC mode. For details, see page 29.
