SDTI interface
Digital data input/output operations using the SDTI
format (compressed digital interface) are enabled by
installing the AJ-YAC930G SDTI board (optional
accessory) in this unit.
<Notes>
SDTI (Serial Data Transport Interface) complies with
the SMPTE 305M standard.
The data stream format transferred via the SDTI
complies with the SMPTE 321M standard.
Precautions to observe when using the
SDTI signals
O The unit can record only if the SDTI input signals
are 1a transfer signals in the DVCPRO format.
However, when playback signals other than normal
1a playback signals have been input, there is no
guaranty for the pictures and sound recorded or for
pictures and sound with EE.
O Editing operations can be performed only when all
the video and audio signals as well as the time
codes in the SDTI input signals are regular data
based on the DVCPRO format.
O CUE signals are not transferred by the SDTI
interface.
O SDTI dubbing is not possible from tapes recorded
using the DV or DVCAM format.
Use SDI when dubbing tapes recorded in the DV or
DVCAM format.
O When playing back a DV or DVCAM format tape,
DV compressed signals (Compliant with IEC61834-
2.) serve as the SDTI output.
O The video and audio signals in the SDTI output
signals cannot be adjusted.
O During SLOW/STILL playback, the unprocessed
video and audio signals are output as the SDTI
output.
When these video and audio signals are to be
monitored using another device, they may differ
from the video and audio signals played back by
this unit.
