Chapter 1 Overview
Overview
1-1 Features
The PDW-D1 is a compact and lightweight
disc drive which, connected to a nonlinear
editor, allows recording/playback of video/
audio data. Connected to a computer, it can
also be used to write and read video/audio
data files and general-purpose data files.
In conjunction with a laptop computer it is
ideal for field use, or for building a budget
video production system together with a
nonlinear editor.
The features of the PDW-D1 include the
following.
DVCAM format recording/
playback
By accessing this unit from a computer with
the AV/C (Audio/Video Control) protocol,
you can record or play back a DVCAM
format data stream.
1) DVCAM is a trademark of Sony Corporation.
DVCAM output from MPEG
IMX recorded disc
By playing back a disc recorded in MPEG

format from a computer with the
IMX
AV/C protocol, a signal converted to the
DVCAM format can be output.

Chapter
Recording video and audio
data as files
You can record video and audio data in
MPEG IMX format or DVCAM format as
files, through the S400 (i.LINK)
connector.
Proxy AV data
The proxy AV data is a low-resolution,
MPEG-4 based version of the fullresolution MPEG IMX/DVCAM stream.
When a full-resolution MPEG IMX/
DVCAM file is transferred, a proxy AV
stream file that is time code synchronized
with the full-resolution stream, is also
created automatically on the disc. This
proxy AV data, which is smaller in size, is
easier to work with and can be transferred at
upto 30 times faster than real time.
IT-friendly system through
i.LINK interface
In the Professional Disc, clips are recorded
as video and audio data files. This filebased recording system also allows material
to be viewed directly on a computer linked
to the PDW-D1 via an i.LINK (file access
mode, called FAM below) connection-in
the same way that a computer reads data
files on an external drive. The interfaces
include the S400 (i.LINK) connector,
supporting AV/C (Audio/Video Control)
and i.LINK (FAM) protocols.

Note
The indicator may flash or light only for
five seconds depending on the alarm.
You can check alarms generated by this unit, using
the alarm log of the utility software (see page 44).
If the indicator is flashing four times a second, and
it is not possible to check the alarm log, a
malfunction may have occurred. In this case, contact
your Sony service representative.
When the error is eliminated, the indicator
goes off.
c ACCESS indicator
Lights when the disc is being accessed by a
computer. If the ~/1 (on/standby) switch is
set to the 1 position while this indicator is
lit, access to the disc is completed before
the unit switches to the standby state.
Note
While the ACCESS indicator is lit, do not
turn off the AC power switch, disconnect
the power cord, or remove the battery. This
could lead to a loss of data from the disc.
d ~/1 (on/standby) switch and
indicator
When the AC power switch on the rear
panel is in the ~ position, or a battery is
loaded, this switches the PDW-D1 between
the operating (~) and standby (1) states.
When the switch is moved to the ~ position,
the indicator lights. When the switch is
moved to the 1 position, the indicator goes
off.
When operating the PDW-D1 from an AC
power supply, normally leave the AC
power switch in the ~ position, and switch
the PDW-D1 between the operating and
standby states using the ~/1 (on/standby)
switch.
Note
When the DISC IN indicator is lit or
flashing, and the FILE ACCESS MODE
indicator is lit, setting this switch to 1
position has no effect on the power supply.
Eject a disc before carrying out the
