to one-fifth size before being recorded to ensure stabl e and superb picture quality.

High-quality PCM digital audio

PCM recording makes for a wide dynamic range and a high signal-to-noise ratio, thereby enhancing sound quality. There are two recording modes: 2-channel mode (48-kHz sampling and 16-bit quantization), which offers sound quality equivalent to the DAT (Digital Audio Tape) format, or 4-channel mode (32-kHz sampling and 12-bit quantization).

Supporting Variety of Input/Output Interfaces

Digital interfaces

The following optional digital interfaces can be used with the unit. SDI (serial digital interface)/AES/EBU: It can input an d

output D1 (component) format digita l video and audio signals and also AES/EBU-format digital audio signals.

i.LINK: DV format digital video and audio signals can be

input and output. This unit supports the SBP2 protocol. Connecting an SBP2 compliant PC allows video and audio data to be transferred at high speeds.

DVCAM Format

DVCAM is a professional digital recording format developed by Sony from the consumer DV component digital format.

High picture quality and high stability

Video signals are separated into color difference signals and luminance signals, which are encoded and co mpressed

Features

Analog interfaces

The unit can also use the following analog interfaces.

• Analog vi deo: These interfaces include a component

interface, composite interface, and S-video interface. The same BNC type input and output connectors are used to input and output signals in different formats selected with front panel buttons for input and menu items for output.

• Analog audio: The unit has two audio channels. When

in 4-channel mode, you can input two channel s of audio

Page 11

either as channels 1 and 2 or as channels 3 and 4. The two audio channels can be output also either as channels 1 and 2 or as channels 3 and 4.

Compact Size

The compact size of the unit makes the unit suitable for use on a desk top or in an outside broadcast van. The unit can be used as feeder machine for non-linear editing.

Facilities for High-Efficiency Editing

200% variable playback

This unit is the first DVCAM format player or recorder to provide noiseless, variable speed playback over the range from –2 to +2 times normal speed.

Digital jog sound function

When searching at speeds in th e range ±2 times normal speed, the digital jog sound function is e nabled. Th e audio signal is saved in temporary memory, and replayed according to the search speed. This allows searching on the sound track.

Video process control

For analog video output and SDI-format video output, you can adjust the video output level, chroma signal output level, setup level (for DSR-DR1000), black level (for DSR-DR1000P), and chroma phase using the setup menu.

Search dial

This unit is equipped with a responsive search dial for jog and shuttle playback.

Internal and external time codes

An internal time code generator and reader enables time code compliant with SMPTE (for DSR-DR1000)/EBU (DSR-DR1000P) format to be recorded and played back. This allows editing to single frame precision. Outputting or inputting time code (LTC) to or from an external device is also possible using the TIM E CODE IN/ OUT connectors. The unit is also compatible with VITC.

DMC (Dynamic Motion Control)

Under the control of external cont rol devices, th is unit can play back editing segments over the range –2 to +2 times normal speed.

Superimposition function

Time code values, operation mode indications, error messages, and other text data can be superimposed on analog composite video signals output from the SUPER connector. The SUPER connector is a special connector for output of text infor mation. It can be used independent ly when you are outputting composite video, component video, S-Video and other video signals.

Special Hard Disk Functions

Extended recording times

The unit is equipped with a mass storage hard disk, which allows a maximum of 6 hours of 25 Mbps DVCAM stream signals to be recorded.

Rich variety of recording modes

• Normal recording: Input signals are recorded to the

hard disk. A single clip* is created by recording start and stop operations.

• Continuous (endless) recording: This mode allows

continuous recording of new material to the hard disk, overwriting old material when the disk becomes full. This mode is suitable for meteorological and biological observations, which require long continuous recording times.

• Interval recording: This mode allows recording at

specified intervals. You can set the length of the recording interval and the length of the standby time until the next recording interval. The recording in te rval can be set to 0.5, 1, 1.5, or 2 seconds, and the standby interval to 30 seconds or 1, 5, or 10 minutes. This is effective in situations such as biological observations when long interval recording times are required.

• Pre-alarm (exterenal trigger) recording: In this mode,

recording is triggered by an alarm signal input from an external device. For example, when an alarm signal is received, the unit begins recording. Moreover the recording includes data for the 30 seconds prior to reception of the alarm signal (this data is continuously saved in advance on the hard disk).

Remote control

This unit has two RS-422A connectors for communications with external editors with RS-422A interfaces. Remote control is also possible via t he supplied RM-LG2 remote control unit and over the i.LINK interface.

* Material record ed by this unit is h andled in units called “clips” , which

contain the data from the star t point to the end point of one recording operation. Note that there is a limit of 500 on the number of clips that can be saved, regardless of the available hard disk space.

Features

Page 12

Simultaneous recording and playback

While recording input signals to the hard disk, this unit is capable of simultaneous normal speed or slow-motion* playback of any materials already recorded on the hard disk.** During recording, cue p oints can be set at any point from the control panel or from the supplied RM-LG2 Remote Control Unit, and the unit can go back to play t he material from the cue points. This makes it possible for this unit alone to provide slow-motion playback of highlight scenes and other kinds of replay required i n br oadca sts of sporting and live events.

* Slow-motion playback during recording is possible over the range (normal

speed.

**Playback of the clip currently bein g rec orded is not possible during

continuous recording.

Program play bac k (c lip segment playback)

You can extract scenes (up t o 100 scenes) a nywhere in the materials on the hard disk to create playlists. This unit follows the playlist to pl ay the materials automatical ly, allowing you to play sequences with this unit alone. You can check and modify the lists on the monitor.

Multi-simultaneous playback (9-pin (PARA) function)

Via the two RS-422A conne cto r s, mult ipl e DSR-DR1000/ DR1000P units can be connected in a cascad e connection , for simultaneous playbac k wi thout delay. This is convenient in situations such as output to multiple monitors. To perform multi-simultaneous playback, you need to set the REMOTE I/F m enu item (see page 72) to 9PIN(PARA).

Other Features

Support for two i.LINK protocols

This unit supports the AV/C protocol, used for input and output of digita l video and audi o signals in the DV format, and the SBP2 protocol, used for high-speed transfer of video and audio data. By connecting SBP2 compatible nonlinear devices or servers, you can transfer data at fast speed.

Menu system for functionality and operation settings

The unit provides a menu sy stem to make its various functions easier to use and set up its operation conditions.

Advancement of internal time code generator

The internal time code generator can advance in either of two modes, which can be set with the RUN MODE menu item (see page 68). FREE RUN: Advancement starts when the data saving

operation is completed.

REC RUN: Advancement starts when recording starts and

stops when recording stops.

To set the current time as the initial time code value

In step 2 above, set the RUN MODE menu item to FREE RUN, then set the current time (format: HH:MM:SS:FF = hours: minutes:seconds:frame number) in step 3 and subsequent steps.

Synchronizing Internal and External Time Codes

The internal time code generator can be synchronized with an external time code (LTC) input to this unit.

To conf irm external synchronization

Press the STOP button to put the unit into stop mode, then press the REC button. Look at the time counter display and check that the time code value displayed there match es the external ti me code value.

To synchronize the internal time code to external time code

Input an external time code (LTC) signal to the TIME CODE IN connector, then set the TC MODE menu item (see page 68) to EXT REGEN. The internal time code generator locks onto the externa l time code and starts adva ncing. Once the internal time code generator has been synchronized in this way, you can disconnect the external time code input and this unit will maintain the synchronized time code.

Note

When the selected input mode is “i.LINK” (the i.LINK indicator is lit in the INPUT signal display section), setting the TC MODE menu item to EXT REGEN causes the internal time code generator to automatically synchronize with the external time c ode input to the unit via t he i.LINK interface. When the TC SELECT menu item is se t to VITC, the internal time code generat or synchronize s to the time code (VITC) of video input signals.

Once an external time code signal has been input, the internal time code advancement mode and frame count mode are automatically set as follows:

Advancement mode: FREE RUN Frame count mode: Same as external time code (drop

frame or non-drop frame)

Cautions

• Two audio recording modes, with either two channels at 48 kHz or four channels at 32 kHz, can be used on this unit. It is not possible to select any other mode (for example with four channels at 48 kHz).

• If there is a point where the au dio mode is swi tched, it is not possible to carry out insert editing over a section including that point.

Recording

Page 35

• When, in 4-channel mode, analog audio is selected for all four chan nels (channels 1/2 an d 3/4), the same analog audio signals are recorded on cha nnels 1 and 3 and on channels 2 and 4, respectively.

When manually adjusting audio i nput levels, with the VARIABLE switch on the front panel set to REC, use the REC/PB LEVEL control knob for each channel to adjust the audio input le vel. Watching the audio le vel meter in E-E mode, adjust the level so that the meter does not indicate higher values than 0 dB when the audio signal is at its maximum. When the level exceeds 0 dB, the OVER indicator lights.

When recording at reference level

When the VARIABLE switch on the front panel is set to PRESET, recording is carried out at the preset reference level.

Reference level setting

The factory-preset reference level for analog audio input is −20 dB (DSR-DR1000) or −18 dB (DSRDR1000P). This setting can be changed using the LEVEL SELECT menu item (see page 71).

Menu Setting

Menu Organization

As shown in the following f igure, the men u system consists of four levels and is divided by function into six subsystems: the Setup menu (SETUP MENU), the Time Code Preset menu (TC PRESET), the Disk menu (DISK MENU), the Network menu (NETWORK MENU), the Date and Time Preset menu (DATE/TIME PRESET), and the Digital hours meter menu (HOURS METER).

This chapter mainly describes the setup menu, showing its contents and how to operate it.

For details of the digital hours meter display, see “Regular Checks” on page 94.

Chapter

The items of the setup menu are divided into several functional groups on level 1, and except for the MENU GRADE item the settings them sel ves are made on level 2 or level 3. Also, the menu items are divided into two categories according to how frequently t hey are accessed: the “basic” items, to which frequent access is normally required, and the “enhanced” items, which are less frequently used. In the following figure, the items shown in boldface are basic items, and the other items are enhanced items. The menu settings are saved in non-volatile memory, which means they are not erased when you power off the unit after executing the setting operation.
