Sony P2 Protocol Documentation
This manual describes the changes and additions to the Sony P2 support for the SX-1OS
V1.50 software. See also the V1.10 release note for other issues that were addressed after
V1.00
Additions:
P2 Master reads and uses Rec-arm tally messages.
send out requests for EDIT PRESET STATUS, or use the information in the status map
that indicates Rec-arm status. Without this, the SX-1 will ignore audio track arming that
occurs at the remote machine, and the front panel channel REC buttons will not light. Only
actions from the SX-1 itself would work. In V1.50, the SX-1 continually follows the status
of the external machine and updates its internal maps and channel REC button LEDS
accordingly. This allows a higher level of confidence when the controlled device is out of
sight away in a machine closet or room.
REC=4 devices now can choose digital or analog track mapping.
devices that had RECS=4 specified would use the ANALOG rec-arm bits in the P2 protocol.
Thus for devices that had 4 digital tracks, it was necessary to choose recs=8 and ignore the
assigned buttons for 5 thru 8. Some devices would map these bits to Timecode tracks and
other functions that the user would prefer not to have affected.
In V1.50 the choices have been expanded:
2A 2 Track using A1 and A2 Analog assignments
2D 2 Track using D1 and D2 digital track assignments
In V1.00 and V1.10, the SX-1 does not
In V1.00 and V1.10, remote
4A 4 Track using A1 A2 A3 A4 analog assignments.
Most 2 Track analog devices map the timecode track to A3 and have nothing in
A4.
4D 4 Track using D1 D2 D3 D4 digital assignments.
8 8 Track using D1 – D8 digital assignments
16 16 Track using D1 – D16 digital assignments.
24 24 Track using D1 – D24 digital assignments.
32 32 Track using D1 – D32 digital assignments.
-- No Rec Arm assignments.
Rec arms now disabled when in Mixdown mode
Mixdown mode, any tracks Rec-armed over P2 will be turned off until MixDown mode is
exited. This is for safety and to make the behavior similar to the SX-1’s internal recorder . If
the resulting mix is to be recorded to the external P2 device, another pass is required after

P2 Slave support.
the P2 protocol. This is a large feature, and is fully described below.
V1.50 adds the ability to control the SX-1
from
an external device using
P2 Slave
The SX-1 can re-use the RS422 port for P2 Master or P2 Slave. To set up P2 Slave, use the
LCD Transport / Machine Control List page.
z First make sure there is no P2 Master or other RS422 device already in the list.
z If so, use the DELETE LAST menu until there is no “422” entry in the list.
th
z Select ADD, select RS422 in the submenu and turn the 4
highlighted in the menu.
z Press OK
z Make sure that the SX-1 HDR entry has CHASE=LTC Master set.
It is still possible to control the SX-1 if it is set to chase LTC or MTC, in which case motion
control commands will be translated and sent to the designated timecode master , if one is in
the machine control list, and just EDIT ON/OFF & Arming commands will be available.
encoder until P2 SLAVE is
Note: The RS422 port on the SX-1 is pre-wired to be a Master (Controlling Device). When
using the SX-1 as a P2 Slave, it is necessary to provide a cross-over connection to make the
SX-1 look like a Controlled Device.

Timing: The SX-1 will reply to incoming commands within 9ms. The time required to
actually execute the command and update the STATUS MAP will vary and may be much
longer. See note *6 for details about deferred commands.
Lists of supported commands: Any command not in these lists will get a NAK reply.
