Chapter 1 Overview — Before use

Before use

r Overview
The AV-HS6000, a new model in the HS series, employs a newly designed, easy-to-use UI graphical Control Panel AV-HS60C1/AV-HS60C2 to support accurate switching.
And even with a 3U size compact design, it is equipped with abundant inputs and outputs for great system integration as seen by its 32 SDI and 2 DVI inputs plus 16 SDI outputs.
To top it all off, situations where creative video production is demanded alongside fast response are handled by providing 4 DVEs per ME to enable diverse transitions.
r Precautions
f Be sure to perform validation of the unit before use. f Should displaying or recording of the video fail due to a malfunction of the unit or memory cards used, we will not assume liability for such failure.
r Network security
The unit also has functions which are used when it is connected to a network. Using the unit when it has been connected to a network may possibly give rise to the following issues.
f Leakage or theft of information through this unit f Use of this unit for illegal operations by persons with malicious intent f Interference with or stoppage of this unit by persons with malicious intent
It is your responsibility to take precautions such as those described below to protect yourself against the above network security risks.
f Use this unit in a network secured by a rewall, etc. f If this unit is connected to a network that includes computers, make sure that the system is not infected by computer viruses or other malicious entities

Chapter 1 Overview — Precautions for use

Precautions for use

r Handle carefully.
Do not drop the product, or subject it to strong impact or vibration. Do not carry or move the product by the fader lever. This is important to prevent malfunction or accidents.
r Use the product at a temperature of 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).
Avoid using the product at a cold place below 0°C (32°F) or at a hot place above 40°C (104°F), because extremely low or high temperature may adversely affect the parts inside.
r Turn off the power before connecting or disconnecting cables.
Before connecting or disconnecting the cables, be sure to turn off the power.
r Avoid humidity and dust.
Avoid using the product at a humid, dusty place because much humidity and dust will cause damage to the parts inside.
r Maintenance
Turn off the power and wipe the product using a dry cloth. To remove stubborn dirt, dip a cloth into a diluted solution of kitchen detergent (neutral), wring it out well, and wipe the product gently. Then, after wiping the product with a moist cloth, wipe it again with a dry cloth.
NOTE
@@
t Avoid using benzine, paint thinners and other volatile uids. t If a chemical cleaning cloth is to be used, carefully read through the precautions for its use.
r Precaution to be observed during production
Video switching and video effect functions of this unit can be used to produce videos which icker rapidly or videos which change rapidly.
However, bear in mind when using these functions in production that the kinds of videos produced may have an adverse effect on the viewer’s physical well-being.
r Built‑in display
Leaving the organic EL panel of the source display panel, multi-selection menu panel, and LCD panel of the Menu Panel AV-HS60C3 on with the same
image over a long period of time may result in afterimage (burn‑in). Use after conguring the screensaver settings.
The liquid crystal parts are highly precise with more than 99.99% of the pixels effective. This leaves less than 0.01% of pixels that may not light or may remain on all the time.
These phenomena are normal and will have no effect on the images you shoot.
Condensation may form on the LCD panel if you use the unit where temperatures uctuate. Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
When the unit has completely cooled down, the display on the LCD monitor appears slightly darker than usual immediately after the power has been turned on. Once the internal temperature of the unit rises, the display returns to the normal brightness.
r Touch screen
Operate with your ngers on the touch screen of the Menu Panel AV‑HS60C3. Do not touch the panel with sharp‑pointed, hard object such as a ballpoint
pen.
r When the product is to be discarded
When the product is to be discarded at the end of its service life, ask a specialized contractor to dispose of it properly in order to protect the environment.
r Consumable parts
f Cooling fan:
This is a consumable part.
As a general rule, replace it every 5 years or so (when the unit has been operated for 15 hours a day).
f Power supply unit:
This is a consumable part.
As a general rule, replace it every 5 years or so (when the unit has been operated for 15 hours a day).
The period when the consumable parts need to be replaced will differ depending on the operating conditions.

f If the size of an image is not appropriate, the image is centered without resizing and is output from AV-HS6000. If the size is too large, then the image
is displayed with the portion which does not t the size cut out.
If the size is too small, then the margin around the image is displayed with a black image.
A le of the size which exceeds 1920×1080 pixels cannot be loaded.
f The pixels of images in SD format are not square, so the aspect ratio will be different when the images are displayed on the computer and when they
are imported into the video memory. (The images will be vertically long in the NTSC system.)
To keep the images true to their actual proportions, create the original image in 720×540 pixels, and for the NTSC system, use an image reduced to
720×487 pixels. For the PAL system, use images enlarged to 720×576 pixels.
