Additional Functions of ADVC-HDM1
Thank you for purchasing this product. With the version upgrade of ADVC-HDM1, this leaflet explains about additional
features of this product. Please read this carefully along with the “ADVC-HDM1 User’s Guide” attached to this product.
Add low-delay encoding mode
With the combination of our high-definition network transmission system, HDCS-3000S/3000R, delay time from input by
ADVC-HDM1 to video output from HDCS-3000R has been shortened than ever before.
How to set up (for HDCS-3000S)
1. Start “Web console” and click [Local settings] to open the [Local settings] window.
2. Choose [Enable] of [ADVC-HDM1 low delay mode] of [1. System] section.
* Restart the HDCS-3000S to activate this setting.
How to set up (for HDCS-3000R)
1. Start “Web console” and click [Local settings] to open the [Local settings] window.
2. Specify [Buffering time] of [4. Monitor] section as [150msec].
How to set up (for ADVC-HDM1)
1. Set DIP switch SW4 which is on the rear side of ADVC-HDM1 to [ON].
* In case the bit rate of ADVC-HDM1 is set with HDCS-3000S, be sure to set all the DIP switches from “SW6” to “SW8” to [ON].
2. Reconfigure the encoding mode of ADVC-HDM1 with one of the following way.
- Restore power
- Reset the settings (Press [Reset] button on the front side more than three seconds)
- Switch to the decode mode and then switch to the encode mode again
Notes
- MPEG2 Stream of low delay encoding does not apply to HDV specification even if all the DIP switches from “SW5”
to “SW8” is set to [OFF].
- This mode works only with the combination of HDCS-3000S/3000R (of which firmware version is later than 1.4.0).
Only HDCS-3000S/3000R supports this low delay playback function.
- When video bit rate of is set by remote from the local settings page of HDCS-3000S, turn all the DIP switches from
SW6 to SW8 [ON]. After the settings of the DIP switches are changed, be sure to reconfigure the encoding mode as
written above.
- Video pictures may be interrupted frequentry due to increased retransmission by TCP protocol. Set buffering time
a little bit longer in such a network environment.
Restrictions
- When DIP switch SW4 is set to [ON], the decoding mode will be set as low delay setting and this mode will be able
to decode (play back) MPEG2 Stream of low delay encoding mode only.
- In the mode which uses the RS-422-AV/C command conversion function explained in the next section, video transfer
in the combination of HDCS-3000S/3000R does not operate properly. Be sure to confirm the “Controller Port” has
been selected (The state that LED for RS-422A port turns on.)

H243711291(2/2)
Add RS-422-AV/C Command Conversion Function
In addition to the conventional AV/C-RS-422 command conversion function, RS-422-AV/C command conversion function is
mounted to this product. For the contrast of the command, it is same as the AV/C Command to RS-422 Conversion list in
“ADVC-HDM1 User’s Guide.”
How to set up
1. Press [Encode/Decode Switch] and [Time Code Input Switch] at the same time more than one second to
make both RS-422A port and DEVICE port to be selected. The LED for RS-422A port turns off during this
operation.
Restrictions
- During this setting is specified, the video transmission by low delay encoding mode does not operate properly. Be
sure to make the Controller port is selected (The state that the LED for RS-422A port on the front side turns on.)
Supports encoding/decoding of 1920x1080/50i
With the extension mode for video transfer, ADVC-HDM1 supports both encoding and decoding of 1920x1080/50i as well as
the conventional 1920x1080/59.94i, 1440x1080/59.94i, and 1440x1080/50i.
