Connecting an External Device with the i.LINK Connector
Chapter 6 Example Connections for Various Applications
Connecting an
External Device
with the i.LINK
Connector
When an HDV-compatible video format is
selected, you can connect an external
device to the HDV/DV connector to
perform dubbing of clips recorded on a SxS
memory card using the external device or to
record playback signals from the external
device on the SxS memory card in this unit.
You can also feed an HDV-format or a
DVCAM-format signal to a nonlinear
editing system connected via the HDV/
DV connector.
• Use the i.LINK(HDV) connector only for
one-to-one i.LINK connection.
• Playback signals of clips recorded in a
format other than SP 1080/60i (when
“Country” is set to “NTSC Area”) or SP
1080/50i (when “Country” is set to “PAL
Area”) and SP 1080/24P cannot be
output as converted to HDV signals.
• Playback signals of clips recorded in HQ
1080/24P or HQ 720/24P format cannot
be output as converted to DVCAM
signals.
• Use “i.LINK I/O Select”
(see page 90) of
the VIDEO SET menu to switch the
output format (between HDV and
DVCAM). Be sure to turn off the power
of the connected devices before
switching the output format.
• It is not possible to control the i.LINK-
connected device from this unit using
AV/C commands.
