Notification of Changes

This is a notification on the addition of new features, feature modifications and onscreen display changes. Please read this together with the “INSTRUCTIONS”. K, M: Feature available on the model or series name only.

“High-Speed” added to menu item [System]

“High-Speed” is added to [System] → [Record Set] → [Record Format] → [System].

A moving subject can be effectively portrayed by shooting smooth slow motion images.

1920x1080

● The [Rec Mode] is fixed at “Normal”.

● The following functions cannot be used when “High-Speed” is selected.

Network, Time Stamp Recording, Flicker Correction, Shading, Face Detection and WDR

● The settings for slot B are fixed at the same as slot A.

● For the “TC Generator” setting, only “Rec Run” and “Regen” can be

selected.

● It is not possible to set a shutter speed that is slower than the frame rate. (Example: When 120/60p is selected, 1/120 to 1/10000 can be set.)

● The angle of view shifts to telephoto. (35 mm conversion: [Normal] 29.6 mm to 355 mm → [High-Speed]

49.3 mm to 592 mm)

● The sensitivity of high speed shooting is lower than normal shooting. In order to capture more beautiful images, it is recommended to perform shooting in a lighted environment.

● The remaining space on the media (recordable time to a SD card) runs out faster than usual. (Example: For 120/60p, as the recording speed is twice as fast as usual, the remaining space on the media is reduced by approximately double the speed.)

Bit Rate added to System “4K”

“70M” is added to [System] → [Record Set] → [Record Format] → [Bit Rate].

MPEG2-TS/RTP is added to streaming type and SMPTE2022-1 FEC is supported. Also, MPEG2-TS/TCP is removed.

 “MPEG2-TS/RTP” added to menu item [Type]

“MPEG2-TS/RTP” is added to [System] → [Network]/[Settings] → [Live Streaming Set] → [Server]/[Streaming Server] → [Server1] to [Server4] → [Type]. [Setting Values: ● MPEG2-TS/UDP, MPEG2-TS/RTP, RTSP/RTP,

ZIXI, RTMP]

● With the addition of this setting value, “MPEG2-TS/TCP” is removed from the setting values of [Type].

 [SMPTE 2022-1 FEC] added to menu item

When “MPEG2-TS/RTP” is selected in [System] → [Network]/[Settings] → [Live Streaming Set] → [Server]/[Streaming Server] → [Server1] to

[Server4] → [Type], [SMPTE 2022-1 FEC] can be configured. Set to “On” to use FEC (Forward Error Correction). This is a transmission

system that recovers the missing packets in the decoding process without having to retransmit the missing packets.

[Setting Values: On, ● Off]

* The decoder must be compatible with SMPTE 2022-1.

 [FEC Matrix] added to menu item

For setting the amount of FEC (Forward Error Correction) overhead for configuring SMPTE 2022-1.

● This item is selectable only when [SMPTE2022-1 FEC] is set to “On”.

● When [Type] is set to “MPEG2-TS/RTP”, only even numbers from 2 to

65530 can be specified as the port number for the transmission destination port.

● When [Type] is set to “MPEG2-TS/RTP” and [SMPTE2022-1 FEC] is set to “On”, N+2 and N+4 port numbers are also used in addition to the port number (N) specified for the transmission destination port.

 Setting the FEC Matrix

Set the amount of “FEC” (Forward Error Correction) overhead for configuring [SMPTE 2022-1].

1 Select [System] → [Network]/[Settings] → [Live Streaming Set] →

[Server]/[Streaming Server] → [Server1] to [Server4] → [Type] → [FEC Matrix], then press the Set button ( ● ).

The FEC adjustment screen appears.

2 Adjust the L and D values.

Use the H / I buttons to adjust the L value, and the J/K buttons to adjust the D value. The amount of FEC overhead changes when the L and D values are changed. To restore the L and D values to their default values, press the [C.REVIEW/4] button.

● Setting range

• 4 ≦ L ≦ 20 (Default value: L = 10)

• 4 ≦ D ≦ 20 (Default value: D = 10)

• L × D ≦ 100 (Default value: L×D = 10×10)

3 Press the Set button ( ● ).

The screen returns to the streaming server setting screen.

● Increasing the amount of FEC overhead increases the packet loss resilience but more network bandwidth is used.

● Even with the same amount of overhead, increasing the L value will increase the packet loss (continuous packet loss) resilience.

[Adaptive Bit Rate] and [PCR Jitter] added to menu item

(K)

The following items are added to [System] → [Network]/[Settings] → [Live Streaming Set]

●

Adaptive Bit Rate If “On” is selected, the bit rate setting value of live streaming is set to maximum limit, and the bit rate is changed automatically according to

changes in the network bandwidth. [Setting Values: On,

● Adaptive bit rate setting is possible only when [Type] is set to “ZIXI” and [Latency] is set to either “Medium” or “Low”.

* The bit rate is displayed on the status screen only when “On” is set.

●

PCR Jitter Setting to “Low” reduces the PCR jitter of live streaming. [Setting

“High” is added to menu item [Latency] (K)

High latency (high reliability) mode is added to ZIXI. “High” is added to [System] → [Network]/[Settings] → [Live Streaming

Set] → [Server]/[Streaming Server] → [Server1] to [Server4] → [Latency].

[Setting Values: High, Medium, ● Low, Minimum (ZIXI Off)]

[APN] added to menu item (K)

[APN] is added to [System] → [Network]/[Settings] → [Connection Setup].

* APN: Access Point Name * This item is grayed out and cannot be selected if APN cannot be set for the adapter attached.

● The APN setting is written into the cellular adapter, not this camera recorder. Setting a wrong APN may result in communication failure or

expensive bills from the telecommunications company. Set the APN correctly.

FTP resume feature added (K)

When FTP transfer starts and there is a file of the same name on the server with a file size smaller than the file to be transferred, the file on the server will be regarded as an interrupted file during a FTP transfer. A confirmation screen to resume transfer (append writing) appears.

If “Resume” is selected, FTP transfer is carried out such that it appends from the position where it was interrupted. When FTP transfer ends normally, “Successfully Completed.” appears on the screen.

● FTP server equipped with resume function is required.

● If [System] → [Network]/[Settings] → [Clip Server] → [Clip-FTP1/2/3/4]

→ [Protocol] is set to “SFTP”, the “Resume” function is disabled.

● If “HTTP” is selected in the [Select FTP Proxy] screen of the network connection setting, the resume function is disabled.

Setting value “ZIXI” added to menu item [Protocol] (K)

“ZIXI” is added to [System] → [Network]/[Settings] → [Clip Server] → [Clip-FTP1/2/3/4] → [Protocol]. If “ZIXI” is selected, [Username] in [System] → [Network]/[Settings] → [Clip Server] → [Clip-FTP1/2/3/4] changes to [Stream ID]. [Setting Values: ● FTP, SFTP, FTPS, FTPES, ZIXI]

● To use the “ZIXI” setting, a dedicated server is needed separately.

● If “ZIXI” is set, the “Resume” function is enabled.

Setting value “Side Cut” added to menu item [SD Aspect]

“Side Cut” is added to the setting value for [A/V Set] → [Video Set] → [SD Aspect].

●

Letter: Displays as a wide image with the top and bottom blackened.

●

Squeeze: Displays image that is squeezed horizontally.

●

Side Cut: Displays wide screen with the left and right sides cut off.

[Setting Values: ● Squeeze, Letter, Side Cut]

● When “SD” is selected in [System] → [Record Set] → [Record Format] → [System], “Squeeze” and “Letter” can be selected.

2.5x display mode added to Expanded Focus function in 4K mode

An approximately 2.5x display mode is added to the Expanded Focus function when “4K” is selected in [System] → [Record Set] → [Record

Format] → [System]. You can use the Set button ( ● ) to switch between the conventional dot by dot equivalent (approximately 5x)

display and the 2.5x display.
