Recording  
This flowchart shows the steps for recording the digital signals which are supplied to the unit from an external  
digital device.  
11. Check the connections.  
12. Turn on the power.  
13. After making sure that no cassette tape is inserted in this unit, set the system frequency  
59.94, 23.98, 24, 25 or 50 by F1 (FREQ) key of the SYSTEM SET UP menu.

The frequency setting is possible when the two keys, F and F1 are pressed at the same time.  
Select the frequency by cursor key [3, 4] and press the BS and ENT keys at the same time,  
then the frequency is secured. In 59 Hz mode, the selection window will be further displayed  
(1080i/525i/720p). Select the format by the cursor key, and press the BS and ENT keys at  
the same time to secure the format. When the 1080i or 720p format has been selected, se-  
lect its 4-channel or 8-channel audio version, and enter the format by pressing the BS and  
ENT keys at the same time.  
In the 23.98 Hz, 24 Hz or 25 Hz mode, a window appears offering the user the option of se-  
lecting PsF or P for the VIDEO signal interface format. When the format is selected using the  
cursor keys [3, 4] and the BS key and ENT key are then pressed together, the format is en-  
tered. In the same way, the HD MAIN output and HD MONI output formats are selected using  
the cursor keys [3, 4] and then entered by pressing the BS key and ENT key together.  
(The table below lists the possible combinations of the output signals of the video output  
connectors. These combinations are available only when the AJ-UDC3700P option has  
been installed.)

Recording  
The REF synchronization specifications applying when the 1080/23p, 24p or 25p True-P (Non-PsF) system  
format is selected are the same specifications as for the PsF system format. Use an interlace format signal  
for the HD tri-level SYNC signal.  
The True-P (Non-PsF) input/output interface does not support EMBEDDED AUDIO/TC/VANC.  
The enhance and filter response picture quality adjustments do not work for True-P (Non-PsF) outputs.  
Other signals cannot be superimposed onto HD monitor outputs using True-P signals.  
When PsF signals have been recorded using a PsF system format and they are subsequently played back  
using a True-P system format, the PsF signals are converted into True-P signals. Conversely, when True-P  
signals have been recorded using a True-P system format and they are subsequently played back using a  
PsF system format, the True-P signals are converted into PsF signals.  
Bear in mind that when recording 1080/50i signals using the 1080/25PsF system format, the signals will be  
recorded but the images will be blurred.

Concerning the TC SYNC value and sync phase settings  
Since the TC is similarly converted when the 1080/23psf (p) or 1080/24psf (p) format is converted into the  
1080/59i (480/59i) or 1080/60i format, it is necessary to input the time information (TC SYNC value) that will  
serve as the reference for conversion and the 3:2 pull-down sequence (sync phase) of the post-conversion  
output images.  
Setting the TC SYNC value  
Input the pre-conversion TC with the frame count of 24 (24TC) and the post-conversion TC with the frame  
count of 30 (30TC)/25 (25TC) to serve as the reference for conversion.
