Series Recording
Long recording can be performed by switching
multiple HSR-1/1P/2/2P units connected in series.
Requirements for series recording
To activate series recording, it is necessary to connect
multiple HSR-1/1P/2/2P units in series and specify the
series recording signal.
For connections, see Chapter 5 “Connections and
Preparations.”
Assigning the series recording signal
Assign the series recording signal to either input and
output pins of the PARALLEL I/O connector on the
rear panel of each HSR-1/1P/2/2P unit.
By transmitting the series recording signal via the
connectors, recording is relayed to the subsequent
HSR-1/1P/2/2P units.
The signal assignment is made from the Remote
Control menu.
Once you assign the signal, it is not necessary to set it
again unless it needs be changed.
For the Remote Control Menu, see Chapter 4 “Menu
Operations.”
To activate series recording
1 Turn on the power and insert a cassette in to each
HSR-1/1P/2/2P.
2 Press the REC key on the first HSR-1/1P/2/2P.
Recording starts on the first HSR-1/1P/2/2P.
When the remaining time of the tape is near 2 minutes,
the first HSR-1/1P/2/2P unit sends a series recording
signal to the next HSR-1/1P/2/2P unit via the
PARALLEL I/O connector.
When the next HSR-1/1P/2/2P unit receives the signal,
it starts recording.
To cancel series recording
Press the STOP key on the HSR-1/1P/2/2P unit on
which recording is in progress.
