Control means of the JP2pro_rev.S
The following control means are recommended to perform all of the JP2pro_rev.S
functions.
(1) Front control panel option
(2) Dedicated RS-422 remote controller option, “SYNCHRO-CONT 2000”
(3) Control utility software “JP2pro-controller” for Ethernet option,
You can use commercially available editors (e.g. BVE-9100) or slow-motion controllers,
but note that most of such controllers are only adapting the VTR commands, so some
features needing the Disk Protocol are not possible.
Important notice for the Raid Configuration
You can choose the Raid-0 (striping) or the Raid-1 (mirroring) disk configuration. Note
that the actual recording capacity and the bandwidth of the hard disk drive decreases by
1/3 when using the RAID-1, so there are some cautions described below.
(1) Maximum recording time in RAID-1 configuration is 1/3 of the RAID-0.
(2) You cannot use the Lossless mode with the RAID-1.
(3) Normally, the simultaneous record/play operation is possible with the RAID-0 and
the lossy compression mode. Only the LP2 mode can use with the RAID-1.

RAID-0 NO YES YES YES
RAID-1 NO NO NO YES

About recording time
JP2pro_rev.S adopts constant quality (Variable Bit Rate) compression method. The
total recording time varies depending on the following factors.
(1) Capacity of the SSD Magazine.
(2) Raid configuration: The recording time of RAID-1 is 1/3 of the RAID-0.
(3) Quality mode: Lossless, High quality (HQ), Long play 1(LP1) or Long play 2(LP2).
(4) Active pixel number and bit depth
(5) Picture complexity
Table below shows the relationship between the average recording time and the picture
quality when recording relatively busy (complex) HDTV signal.

1. INSTALLATION
Review the “Safety precautions” of this manual before installation of this product.
1-1. Confirmation of Environment
This product operates properly within the temperature range of +0-45℃and the
humidity range of 10-90% (Non-condensing). If the temperature of this product is out of
this range due to a transportation or preservation, do not power on until the temperature
reaches the specified range.
To prevent an over-heat, do not disturb the airflow of this product. Keep a certain space
open, at least 5 cm on the front and the rear of this product.
1-2. Assurance of Mains Voltage
Assure that the mains AC voltage to this product is within the range of 90-264V 50/60
Hz.
1-3. Connection of Power Cable and Power ON
The power cable must be connected properly to the AC IN connector on the rear panel.
Switch on the BREAKER on the rear panel (“1” of 1/0 indication shows ON state).
Push the POWER SWITCH on the front panel for more than 1 second.
All fans are rotated, and the system comes into Setup routine. All LEDs are lit during the
Setup routine.After completion of the Setup routine, most of the LEDs go out and come
into a normal state. The color of the POWER SWITCH lights in orange and the system
is ready to operate.
9
1-4. Power OFF
Push the POWER SWITCH on the front panel more than two second for shutting down
the power. Do not turn the BREAKER on the rear panel off, until the illumination of the
POWER SWITCH turns off.
(NOTE) In the power off process, all the set-ups done by the operator are stored in the
non-volatile RAM. These set-ups are reattributed when power is on again.

HD-SDI IN or the connected signal is abnormal.
•DC POWER :Lit red when internal +3.3VDC or +5VDC is out of the
specified voltage range.
•FAN : Lit red when the cooling fans come to a stop.
➂HDD INDICATOR
There are three indicators, HDD1, 2 and 3. Blinked orange when the Disks are
in write operation (RECORD). Blinked green when the Disks are in read
operation (PLAY SLOW etc). When one of the Disks is fail, the corresponding
indicator stops blinking and keeps to light red

➃EXT INDICATOR
Lit green when this recorder synchronizes to the external reference signal
while one of the following GEN-LOCK modes are selected:
•EXT REF
•VIDEO INPUT
•AUTO
Lit amber at the following cases:
・ External Reference signal is not connected when the EXT mode is
selected.
・ Input Video signal is not connected when the INPUT VIDEO mode is
selected.
・ Both External Reference signal and Input video signals are not connected
when the AUTO mode is selected.
・ When INTERNAL mode is selected.
