Overview 1 Chapter
The J-10/10SDI/30/30SDI (also referred to simply as the unit(s) in this manual) are compact players based on the 1/2-inch tape format.
They play tapes recorded in conventional Betacam/ Betacam SP format.
Notes
•Since the unit does not have a dynamic tracking function, the tape may not replay correctly if the recording pattern on the tape are disturbed.
•If you use a mobile radio machine with 5 W or larger output within 50 cm (19 3/4 inches) of this unit, the playback image may be disturbed.
The following are some of the features of these units.
Compatible format for playback
The unit can play tapes in the following formats:
•Digital Betacam format (J-30/30SDI only)
•MPEG IMX format (J-30/30SDI only)
•Betacam SX format
•Betacam/Betacam SP format
Head configuration
In addition to digital playback heads for the Digital Betacam (J-30/30SDI only), MPEG IMX (J-30/30SDI only) and Betacam SX, the unit also has analog playback heads for the analog Betacam SP.
Digital signal processing
This unit processes digital signals conforming to the 4:2:2 component digital D-1 format.
The unit is compatible with the Digital Betacam (J-30/ 30SDI only), the Betacam SX for the MPEG2 4:2:2 P@ML interframe format, and the MPEG IMX (J-30/30SDI only) for the MPEG2 4:2:2 P@ML intraframe format.
High image quality, high audio quality, high reliability
Complying with the data rates for the Digital Betacam (J-30/30SDI only), MPEG IMX (J-30/30SDI only) and Betacam SX, this unit achieves playback with both high image and high audio quality.
Playback compatibility with Betacam/ Betacam SP
The unit plays tapes recorded in the Betacam/Betacam SP format. This makes for efficient use of existing material in the Betacam/Betacam SP format.
Feeder function
This unit can be used not only as a Player but also as a Feeder. Connected to a PC, the unit controls images and feeds images to the PC via a remote connector (RS-422A) on the control panel.
Compact design
Since the unit is as compact as a standard desktop personal computer in size, it is ideal for personal use on your desktop. In addition, front loading of both S and L cassettes is standard.
Menu-based setup
Initial settings for the unit’s operation, interfaces with connected equipment, and so on, can be made by means of menu operations on the front panel of the unit.

The latest setting for each format is saved in the memory regardless of whether the power has been turned on/off. Therefore, when you play any cassette next time, it will be played back in the format last saved. If there is no cassette in the unit, you can change the audio channel in the format used the last time you ejected the cassette.

1)Shot marks
If you use a camcorder which allows you to use shot marks, you can insert REC START marks or shot marks in the user bits area in advance for easy editing.
This is called inserting shot marks.
2)Shot data
The information recorded continuously during the process of shooting is called shot data.
The contents of the display vary corresponding to the change of shooting conditions (e.g. changing camcorders, shooting on different dates, etc.). If there are any parts that contain no shot data by changing a shooting camcorder, the unit displays blank data.

Normally this displays a CTL count, time code value, or user bit value according to the selection of the CTL/ TC/UB button or LTC/VITC button. When a cassette recorded in the DF mode is played back, the dot by themark in the illustration above lights. At this time, the two dots (:) located above the dot disappear.
It is also used to display error messages and the setup menus.
For details of the display of the CTL count, time code value, or user bit value, see the explanation given in “5 CTL/TC/ UB button” on page 2-4.
Indicator area
This includes the following indicators.
•DOLBY C NR (Dolby C noise reduction) indicator: This lights when the Dolby noise reduction circuit is functioning..
•CTL (control) indicator: This lights when a tape running time (hours, minutes, seconds, frames) computed from the CTL signal is displayed in the time data display area.
•TC (time code) indicator: This lights when a time code is displayed in the time data display area.
•UB (user bits) indicator: This lights when a user bit value is displayed in the time data display area.
•LTC, VITC indicators: Regardless of the display in the time data display area, these indicators light when the corresponding time code values are being read.
When LTC has been selected using the LTC/VITC button, the LTC indicator is displayed and underlined. On the other hand, when VITC is selected, the VITC indicator is displayed and underlined.
•SERVO indicator: This lights when the servo lock is functioning.
•ALARM indicator: This lights when a hardware error is detected on the unit, and goes off when the error is resolved. When this indicator is lit, an error message appears in the time data display area.
•Cassette-in indicator q: This lights when a cassette is loaded in the unit.
•DATA indicator: This lights when a tape, containing audio data such as Dolby-E and AC-3 on its DIGITAL AUDIO track, is played back.
•525, 625 (scan lines for the television standard) indicators: Either of these indicators lights to show the system for which this unit is set in basic menu item 013 (NTSC: 525 scan lines, field frequency 60 Hz; PAL: 625 scan lines, field frequency 50 Hz).

Operations and functions |
|
|
Jog |
Press the JOG/SHUTTLE button once to |
|
light “JOG,” then turn the JOG dial, or |
|
simply turn the JOG dial without lighting |
|
“JOG.” Playback is carried out at a |
|

speed of the JOG dial. The playback |
|
speed range is from –1 to +1 times |
|
normal speed. |
|
The JOG dial has no detents. |
|
|
Shuttle |
Press the JOG/SHUTTLE button twice to |
|
light “SHTL,” then turn the SHUTTLE |
|
dial, or simply turn the SHUTTLE dial |
|
without lighting “SHTL.” Playback is |
|
carried out at a speed corresponding to |
|
the angular position of the SHUTTLE |
|

|
follows. |
|
When using a Digital Betacam tape |
|
(J-30/30SDI): –21 to +21 times normal |
|
speed |
|
When using an MPEG IMX tape (J-30/ |
|
30SDI): –32/–38 to +32/+38 times |
|
normal speed (NTSC/PAL) |
|
When using a Betacam SX tape: –35 |
|
to +35 times normal speed |
|
When using an analog Betacam tape: |
|
–18/–20 to +18/+20 times normal |
|
speed (NTSC/PAL) |
|
The SHUTTLE dial has detents at the |
|
center position, and at that point a still |
|
picture is displayed. |
|

Notes
•Normally, you turn the SHUTTLE dial after setting the jog/shuttle mode by pressing the JOG/SHUTTLE button. However, you can also set the jog/shuttle mode simply by turning the dial. (This feature is available when SELECTION FOR JOG/SHUTTLE DIAL ENABLE, extended menu item 101 of the setup menu, is set to DIAL.) In this case, you must reset the SHUTTLE dial to the center position after turning it, otherwise the dial may be moved by vibration and the tape may start running in the shuttle mode during playback.
