Connecting external components
O
Before recording signals from an external
component, check that the video signals are
input.
O
When signals from an external component
are being recorded, do not stop the signal
output at the external component side or
disconnect any of the cables. It may not be
possible for the component to be recognized
when recording is resumed.
O
When an IEEE 1394 cable has been
connected to the DV connector, do not apply
a strong load from outside. Doing so may
damage the connector.
O
Ensure that the IEEE 1394 cable used for the
connection is not more than 4.5 meters long.

The images actually recorded are free of this
distortion and shaking.

signals (signals that protect copyrights) are
recorded using this unit, they will appear as
mosaic patterns when they are played back.

It may not be possible to input or output
digital signals to or from some components
even if the component concerned is equipped
with a DV connector. For details, refer to the
operating instructions of the component to be
connected.

are to be recorded, set the unit to the VCR
mode and operate the VCR REC button to
initiate recording.
