Synchronizing with an External Device

Synchronizing with an External Device
Using Genlock synchronization, you can synchronize this camcorder’s video signal to that of an external video
device. Similarly, using an external time code signal, you can synchronize this camcorder’s time code to the
external signal. Using the external time code signal with multiple cameras allows you to set up a multi-camera
recording. You can also output the time code signal from this camcorder to achieve the same result. If you
output the time code from the 3G/HD-SDI terminal to an editing device, the editor can create video with the
same time code.
Connecting an External Device
When synchronizing the camcorder to an external signal*, use the GENLOCK/SYNC OUT terminal. When
synchronizing a time code signal, use the TIME CODE terminal. Be sure to set either terminal to input or output
in advance.
Connect the external device to the camcorder as shown in the following diagram.
* As reference video signal (input signal) for Genlock synchronization, you can use an analog blackburst or tri-level signal.
Connection Diagram
Reference Video Signal Input (Genlock Synchronization)
When a reference sync signal (analog blackburst or tri-level signal) is input through the GENLOCK/SYNC OUT
terminal, the phases of the camcorder’s V and H sync will automatically be synchronized to it. The phase
difference between the external Genlock signal and the camcorder is initially set to 0. The H phase can be
adjusted within the range of approximately ±0.4 H.
