• Do not leave the videotapes neglected for a long period.

If videotapes are left wound for a long period of time, it may result in distortion of the tape. Also it may cause tape-to-tape adhesion (known as blocking). It is recommended that videotapes be unspooled and rewound once a year for refreshing.

• When tapes are not in use, store them in cases and on end.

Storage cases protect videotapes from humidity, dust and ultraviolet. Keep tapes in cases and do not store them lying flat. When housed in a horizontal position, pressure from other tapes can cause distortions and deformations of the tape edges.

Condensation

• When this unit is moved from a cold to a warm place abruptly, the vapor in the warm air will come into contact with the head drum or the tape guides, which are not warmed enough.

When chilled, the vapor turns into droplets of water. This state is known as condensation.

When condensation occurs, the videotape adheres to the head drum or the tape guides and will be damaged.

• Condensation occurs on this unit in the following circumstances:

* It is moved abruptly from a cold place to a warm place.

* It is used in a place immediately after the heater has been turned on, or when cold breeze from an air-conditioner blows onto it.

* It is used at a place of high humidity.

Head drum

• When condensation occurs, the monitor displays the following warning:

CONDENSATION ON DRUM

Leave the unit with the power ON and wait until the WARNING message disappears.

• Prevention of condensation

When transporting BR-DV6000 from a cold to a warmer place abruptly, first remove the cassette tape. Then place BR-DV6000 in a plastic bag and seal it before transporting.

Take out BR-DV6000 from the sealed plastic bag only after it has the same temperature as the surroundings.

Videotape

When a cassette tape is loaded, do not transport e.g., from a cold outdoor place to a warm room thus subjecting the unit to drastic temperature changes.

After moving the unit, do not use it until the inner mechanism stabilizes.

Caution on video signals

● If search images or video signals with a high level of jitter are input, images or sound may be distorted temporarily. Thus, input stable signals, e.g., those having gone through a

TBC.

●

A digital VCR requires that video signals for recording be delivered from a stable source.

Video signals from an analog VCR must be run through a TBS or TBC.

●

When a component output is executed for composite-input video, discoloration may occur on the left side of the screen. It is not a defect.

Synchronization signal

In order to enhance the level of edit precision, input synchronization signals to all the devices of the editing system during editing.

For BR-DV6000, input external synchronization signals into the SYNC IN terminal. For external synchronization signals, use video signals of 1V

(p-p) or lower (e.g., black burst signals).

To edit DV signals, synchronization signal input is required.

Types of synchronization signal:

BR-DV6000 is operated based on one of the following 3 types of synchronization signal.

• Synchronization signals produced by the synchronization signal generator inside the VCR

(INT)

• Video signals from the video signal input terminal (VIDEO)

• Synchronization signals from the SYNC IN terminal (EXT)

Selection of synchronization signals:

Synchronization signals should be selected depending on whether external synchronization input (SYNC IN) or video input (VIDEO IN) exists or on the SYNC SELECT Menu settings.

Synchronization signals are selected as shown in the following table.

Note for audio insert editing (48 kHz/32 kHz mode)

● If the audio mode setting by menu on BR-DV6000 (audio mode of input signal in DV interface) is different from that of audio mode of the recorded tape, insert editing is impossible. (If editing is performed, it will automatically stop.)

●

If the audio mode is changed during performing audio insert editing,

• In case of DV interface editing, editing will be continued in accordance with the changed audio mode.

• In case of analog interface editing, if the audio mode of the recorded tape is changed from 32 kHz mode to other mode, editing will automatcically stop during CH1/2 or CH3/4 audio insert editing.

• In case of analog interface editing, editing will be continued in accordance with the audio mode setting by menu on BR-DV6000 during CH1/2/3/4 simultaneous audio insert editing or assemble editing even if the audio mode of the recorded tape is changed.

䡵

Following editing mode is not available

• Variable motion editing

• Slow motion editing

• Audio or Video split editing

• Frame by frame editing (if editing of duration of less than 10 frames, it will automatically perform 10 frames editing)

• CTL editing (Editing may be possible in CTL mode, but since counter data cannot be coincided with tape position, editing accuracy will become worse.)

Time code will be continued to time code information of the prerecorded tape.

This is the factory’s default setting. This mode is especially intended for the following situations:

• When using the JVC bus remote controller.

• When not interfacing with external sync.

• INTERNAL-PRESET-FREERUN (Free run mode)

Please choose this mode when you want to preset time code from the RS-422A remote controller.

Page 59)

Note

When editing, we recommend “blank stripe” tapes on the same VCR that will be used for editing.

Visual or audio imperfections may occur when editing tapes recorded in another VCR, with poor tape path linearity, or when the original tape was recorded or stored in high temperature.

Confirmation by preview editing

Before performing editing, it is possible to check the edit-in and –out points in preview editing.

It does not work with the JVC bus interface editing controller.

If the editing controller has a learn function, it is recommended that this function is used.

To activate the capstan bump function, it is necessary to set sufficient pre-roll time. It is recommended that a minimum of 7 seconds is set.

Note

• During preview or editing, switching timing of picture and audio in edit points appear shifted a few frames from actual recorded points, but the final images will be recorded at the correct location on the tape.

• When the JVC bus interface editing controller is used, the monitor output picture of the recorder always shows the player. It is not possible to check PB/EE switching at edit points.

Perform editing

After setting edit points, starts editing by using perform button on the editing controller.

Note

• Occasionally, pictures or audio noise may appear during the playback process in editing, but the recording will be fine.

• Occasionally, noise may occur at the edit points when editing repeatedly at the same frame many times.

RS-232C INTERFACE

– RS-232C commands –

An optional RS-232C interface board SA-K46U can be installed to BR-DV6000 and connected to a personal computer. Data transmitted and received via the RS-232C interface enables the PC to control the VCR and gather status and operating information.

Preparation

To control the VCR by the RS-232C interface, the following settings are required.

• Set REMOTE SEL 232 in the REMOTE (1/2) Menu screen to ON.

• Set the REMOTE/LOCAL switch on the front panel to REMOTE.

●

Command tables

BR-DV6000 is controlled according to the following two command tables (BASIC, JVC-1).

Command Description

F6 JVC-1 TABLE ON : Hereafter, JVC TABLE-1 is followed.

F7 BASIC TABLE ON : Hereafter, BASIC TABLE is followed. JVC TABLE-1 is turned OFF.

● VCR operation commands

These commands are used to operate the VCR. When a command is received correctly, the VCR returns ACK (0Ah) and enters the mode corresponding to the command.
