Diskus to Betacam Interface
You can use your Betacam
®
deck’s built-in deck-to-deck editing
functions to make frame accurate video transfers from Diskus to
the Betacam deck. Diskus emulates the playback VCR deck
functions. See the Betacam Operations Manual for details on
Recorder/Player deck-to-deck editing functions.
Setup Procedure
STEP 1:
Confirm that your Betacam deck has the Player and
Recorder buttons on the front control panel.
STEP 2:
Connect a 9-pin DB male to 9-pin DB male (pin-to-pin)
RS-422 cable from the Betacam’s remote connector to
Remote Port 1 on Diskus.
STEP 3:
Open the Diskus Remote 1 menu, and set the protocol to
Sony
.
STEP 4:
Using three 75 ohm coaxial cables, connect the Diskus Y, U,
and V analog outputs to the Betacam’s analog inputs
(Component 2).
STEP 5:
Confirm that both Diskus and the Betacam deck have the
same reference input source. An edit will abort if Diskus
and the Betacam deck are not genlocked to the same source.
STEP 6:
Set the Betacam for master/slave operation.
A. Check that the Component Input selector on the rear of
the chassis is set for Component 2 inputs.
B. Set the Input Selector (front upper control panel) to Y-R,B.
C. Set the Betacam Local/Remote switch to Local.
If these steps do not establish communications between the
Betacam deck and Diskus, use the following steps:
STEP 7:
Open the Defaults menu on Diskus, and press the Control
parameter setting. Choose Off from the list, then reset it to
All
or Remote 1. This forces Diskus to reset the remote port,
and it should now recognize the Betacam deck.
