Introduction
The Datavideo HDR-40 or HDR-50 is a hard drive based video recorder and player, with
removable hard drive enclosure. The HDR-50 is a 19” rack mountable 1U design that can be easily
integrated with other rack mounted equipment or the HDR-40 can be used as a desktop stand
alone recorder / player in the studio or on location.
Record from Standard and High Definition video equipment via SDI or HD-SDI with convenient SDI
loop through / pass through for record monitoring. Playback of recorded tracks is via HDMI output.
Device control is also possible via RS-422, RS-232 or a simple GPI trigger.
Both units provide a choice of SD or HD MPEG-II (.M2T) recording bit rates which work with a wide
range of HD Non Linear Editing (NLE) and play out solutions.
Once you have completed your recording, simply eject the hard drive enclosure and use the USB
2.0 port on the rear of the HDD enclosure to connect to a PC or MAC based HD NLE system. As
USB 2.0 provides the power no extra power supply is required, so it is perfect for laptop use in the
field. You can then copy the required video files across to your HD Non Linear Editing application's
media drive. Alternatively you can mount the HDR unit to a computer like a Firewire 400 drive
using the IEEE-1394 front panel connection for file transfer to computer.

Combined Instruction Manual
This manual is written with the Datavideo HDR-40 and HDR-50 units in mind.
As the units only differ slightly their manuals have been combined into one manual. If a section of
the manual can be applied to both units then the equipment will be referred to as the HDR unit
regardless of whether you purchased a HDR-40 unit or a HDR-50 unit.
However, there are some physical differences between these units so there are separate sections
and footnotes too which will only apply to one specific model. Where this happens the model is
identified as applying to either the HDR-40 or HDR-50.

HDD Mode Menu
The HDD Mode Menu will set the HDR unit up as an external IEEE-1394 (FireWire 400) drive, for direct drag
and drop file transfer to a PC or MAC. The files appear in the root directory of the HDR unit hard disk, and
are numbered with the track number that appears in the LCD display when you are recording or playing back
the track.
NOTE: Please ensure the computer and the HDR unit are both powered off before connecting a FireWire
cable between these items. IEEE-1394 6pin Power: ensure the cable connector is inserted into the port the
correct way around otherwise short circuit damage may result to either the computer or the HDR unit’s port.
Other IEEE-1394 devices: connecting 2 or more IEEE-1394 devices to the same computer at the same time
may cause problems with the FireWire communication. To avoid this problem please remove any other
IEEE-1394 connections from the HDR unit and the computer.
File Structure: The HDR unit uses a FAT32 file structure, so large tracks are broken down into 2 GB files, or
roughly 9 minute segments, which are sequentially named:
For example if Track 02 is 1 hour in duration it will appear as follows:
hdv02.m2t
(2 GB) hdv02_01.m2t (2 GB) hdv02_02.m2t (2 GB)
hdv02_03.m2t (2 GB)
hdv02_04.m2t (2 GB)
hdv02_05.m2t (2 GB)
hdv02_06.m2t (77 MB) -
hdv02 is the file name for Track 02
Each 2 GB section is given a sequential _xx numeric extension
The last file in the sequence is likely to be smaller than 2GB.
The Open GOP structure of the 1080 stream requires information contained within all these files to have a
truly contiguous video/audio file. Some Non Linear Edit systems do not combine these m2t files when
importing clips, so this may need to be done prior to import. Datavideo can provide a utility
(M2T_FileCombine.exe) to help you combine these multiple m2t files.
How to use M2T_FileCombine.exe to combine the .m2t files
Step1 - Please connect the HDR unit to PC via IEEE1394 or its removable HDD via USB cable.
Step2 - Open M2T_FileCombine.exe
Step3 - Select source hard disk/drive (HDR-40 or HDR-50)
Step4 - Select files hdv02.m2t, hdv02_01.m2t …and so on
Step5 - Click START to choose a new file name and then press SAVE combine the files.
NB: Although your PC / MAC may see the HDR unit as an AVC compliant DV Device it is not intended
to be operated as such. The AVC command set is not supported.
To set the HDR unit into HDD Mode press Menu button so that it is illuminated.
You will see the display change to the HDD Mode Menu.
Press the Next (▲) Button (right) to select ENTER and the display will show the HDD Enable Confirmation
Screen.
Press the Next (▲) Button (right) again to confirm, after a few seconds HDD Mode will be enabled.
The PC / MAC should recognise that an external IEEE-1394 (Firewire) HDD has been connected. The HDR
unit can be used just like any external USB 2 drive.
To return the HDR unit to Deck Mode either use “Safely Remove Hardware” with a PC, or with a MAC use
“Eject” or Drag the HDR unit Drive to “Trash”. Once un-mounted the HDR unit display will return to the Track
Display.

HDR-40 HDR-50 RS-422 Protocol Reference V1.0
1. Interface Overview





Conforming to EIA RS-422A.
Full duplex communications channel is utilized.
Data is transmitted asynchronously, bit serial, word serial with data exchange between devices.
Standard transmission rate on the interface bus is 38400 bits per seconds (bps)
The data word utilized by the interface system is as follows :
START
BIT
D0
D1
D2
D3
D4
D5
D6
D7
PARITY
(ODD)
STOP
BIT

1 Start bit + 8 Data bits + 1 Parity bit + 1 Stop bit. Odd Parity
ODD parity: The total of “1”s in D0+D1+ . . . D7+PARITY equals an odd number.
2. Command Block Format
The data communication is composed of the CMD-1/DATA COUNT byte, the CMD-2 byte, optional DATA
bytes and the CHECKSUM byte. Commands are transmitted in order from the MSB (Most Significant Byte)
to the LSB (Least Significant Byte). This means that when using the examples in this manual, the order in
which the bytes are read is the same order in which they are transmitted. When the DATA COUNT nibble is
0, no DATA bytes are transmitted or required (the CMD-1/DATA COUNT byte, CMD-2 byte and CHECKSUM
byte are still transmitted). When the DATA COUNT nibble is not 0, the number of DATA bytes transmitted
must correspond with the DATA COUNT. These bytes are inserted between the CMD-2 byte and
CHECKSUM byte.
COMMAND BLOCK FORMAT
The data communication between the controller and the device is performed as follows:
Name
CMD-1
Data Count
Nibble
MSN
LSN
Size
1 Byte
CMD-2
1 Byte
Data 0~15
(per Data Count)
0..15 Byte(s)
Checksum
1 Byte
1. MSN stands for Most Significant Nibble (4 bits)
2. LSN stands for Least Significant Nibble (4 bits)
COMMAND CONTENTS
CMD-1:
This is the first (Most Significant) nibble of the first byte of the command. The DATA COUNT (below)
fills the lower (Least Significant) nibble. It indicates the command or return group to which the command
belongs as per the table below

DATA COUNT:
This is the second (Least Significant) nibble of the first byte of the command. The upper (Most Significant)
nibble is filled by the CMD-1 (above). It indicates the number of data bytes (0-15) that are required to be
inserted between the CMD-2 byte and the CHECKSUM byte.
25
USO RESTRITO
CMD-2:
Designates the exact command within the section specified by CMD-1.
DATA 0..15:
If the command requires extended data, the DATA COUNT will be set to between 1 and 15 (a 0 indicates
that no extra data is required). These bytes will be placed here.
CHECKSUM:
This byte is used to check the data for communication errors. To calculate the checksum, each byte of the
command (CMD-1+DATA COUNT, CMD-2, and any DATA BYTES) are added together. The least
significant 8 bits (1 byte) are then truncated to create a 1-byte checksum.
I.e.: The command “61.0C.03” becomes
MSB LSB
0110 0001 (=61)
0000 1100 (=0C)
+)
0000 0011 (=03)
0111 0001 (=70)
CHECKSUM = “70”
Therefore, the complete command is “61.0C.03.70”

4. Communication Protocol
1.
All communications between the CONTROLLER and the DEVICE will be under the direct
supervision of the CONTROLLER.
When the DEVICE (HDR-40/50) receives the COMMAND from CONTROLLER, the following
COMMAND is returned.

ACK:
In case that the DEVICE receives a COMMAND not requiring data

COMMAND+DATA:
In case that the DEVICE receives a COMMAND requiring data

NAK+ERROR DATA: In case that a communication error is detected or an undefined
COMMAND is received
2.
The CONTROLLER must not transmit additional COMMAND blocks to a DEVICE (HDR-40/50) prior
to response to a previous COMMAND block.
3.
The CONTROLLER must transmit of bytes in a COMMAND block for with intervals less than 10
milliseconds. If a DEVICE (HDR-40/50) detects an interruption of a byte in a COMMAND block that
exceeds 10 milliseconds, it executes a TIME-OUT error sequence, voids the receiving COMMAND
block, and transmit a NAK (TIME OUT).
4.
When a DEVICE (HDR-40/50) receives a COMMAND block from the CONTROLLER, the DEVICE
must transmit a response within 9 milliseconds. Therefore if the CONTROLLER cannot receive the
appropriate response from the DEVICE within 10 milliseconds after transmitting the COMMAND
block the CONTROLLER detects a communication error, and must execute an appropriate process.
5.
When a DEVICE (HDR-40/50) detects a communication error, it must immediately transmit a NAK to
the CONTROLLER. (The content of an error is shown on the COMMAND tables.) When the
CONTROLLER receives a NAK, if must immediately stop transmission of the block. The DEVICE
must not accept a subsequent command within 10 milliseconds after that (except NAK-UNDEFINED
command) and must execute a necessary process.
