1-1 Features  
The DVW-M2000/M2000P/2000/2000P is a digital  
videocassette recorder based on the digital Betacam  
format.  
This unit uses large scale integrated circuits for signal  
processing, and has a simple internal construction,  
allowing it to provide functionality at least equivalent  
to a conventional VTR in a compact (4U size),  
lightweight, and low power consumption design.  
It not only offers recording and playback in digital  
Betacam format, but can also play back tapes recorded  
in Betacam SX format, analog Betacam format, or  
MPEG IMX format 1).  
Digital Betacam format  
The digital Betacam format is characterized in that the  
video and four-channel audio signals of each field are  
recorded onto the tape with six helical tracks, at a  
slightly slower tape speed and three times faster drum  
rotation speed than the analog Betacam formats:  
Betacam, and Betacam SP.  
As for longitudinal tracks, the digital Betacam format  
has a CTL track, a time code (LTC) track and a cue  
audio track, similarly to the analog Betacam formats.  
However, it does not have a channel-1 audio track, and  
this is a solution to expand the space for the helical  
tracks.  
Digital Betacam VTRs have a greater drum diameter  
than that of analog Betacam ones to ensure optimum  
digital recording, but their built-in time base corrector  
circuit enables them to play analog Betacam tapes  
(analog Betacam playback compatibility).

1-1 Features  
High-performance heads and compatibility  
playback function  
High quality four-channel audio  
High quality 20 bit/48 kHz digital audio is supported.  
There are four digital audio input/output channels, and  
four analog audio input/output channels.  
The newly developed high-performance heads and  
dynamic tracking (DT) technology provide high-  
density recording and playback in narrow tracks with  
high reliability. In addition to the digital Betacam  
recording and playback heads, this unit is also  
equipped with Betacam SX format playback heads,  
MPEG IMX playback heads, and analog Betacam DT  
heads, to provide compatibility playback functions,  
and allowing a wide variety of recorded resources to  
be used effectively.  
Newly developed multifunction control  
panel  
While a compact 4U size, this unit has a front panel  
which provides a wide range of functions while  
maintaining existing operability.  
Note that the compatibility playback functions differ  
depending on the models covered by this manual. 1)  
Basic operation buttons and jog/shuttle  
dial  
High-precision digital signal processing  
and range of interfaces  
The basic buttons and jog/shuttle dial for VTR and  
editing operations are provided in the conventional  
VTR layout, ensuring continuity with conventional  
operating panels.  
While supporting a wide range of input and output  
signals, all of the VTR internal processing is digital,  
providing high stability and reliability.  
The audio signals, similarly, are based on AES/EBU  
format, and are subjected to digital signal processing  
while still uncompressed.  
Time data display  
This can be selected to display a CTL counter value,  
time code value, or time code user bits. It can also  
display edit points and edit durations.  
The following interfaces are standard equipment, for  
ease of connection to different external devices.  
• Analog composite signal input/output  
• Analog component signal input/output  
Menu-based control interface  
• Analog audio signal input/output (4 channels)  
• SDI (Serial Digital Interface) SMPTE 259M input  
(component digital video/audio (4 channels))  
• SDI SMPTE 259M output (component digital video/  
audio (DVW-M2000/M2000P: 8 channels; DVW-  
2000/2000P: (4 channels))  
• AES/EBU serial digital audio input (4 channels)  
• AES/EBU serial digital audio output (DVW-M2000/  
M2000P: 8 channels; DVW-2000/2000P: 4 channels)  
• Time code input/output  
The time data/menu display shows not only various  
values and settings, but also the pages of a menu  
system for commonly used functions. You can use the  
function keys and MULTI CONTROL knob to easily  
change settings.  
Other operation settings, including interfacing with  
external devices, can be set from the control panel by  
the same type of setup menu system as on a  
conventional VTR.  
• Cue audio signal input/output

High quality variable speed playback and  
digital jog sound function  
Cross-fade editing  
In audio editing, to avoid unnatural effects at edit  
points, you can fade the audio track. The setting allows  
you to select fade-in, fade-out, or cut-in.  
In digital Betacam or MPEG IMX format1) playback,  
the dedicated playback DT heads allow smooth,  
noiseless playback from –1 to +3 times normal speed.  
In analog Betacam compatible playback also, similar  
dedicated DT heads allow noiseless playback from –1  
to +3 times normal speed, and in Betacam SX format1)  
compatible playback, special multi-head playback  
technology allows noiseless playback from –1 to +2  
times normal speed.  
Tele-File functions  
Tele-File enables data writing/reading between  
cassettes with memory labels and VTRs. It increases  
the efficiency of operations such as recording,  
playback and editing, and source data management.  
In slow motion operation, the digital jog sound  
function provides the same ease of operation as a  
conventional analog VTR.  
Remote control function  
This unit can be controlled from an external remote  
controller or editor through an interface complying  
with RS-422A (serial 9-pin). Since two remote control  
connectors are provided, you can also control a  
number of VTRs simultaneously.  
Additionally, a parallel (50-pin) interface is also fitted  
as standard, supporting easy external control through  
the parallel interface.  
Wide range of editing functions  
By combining two units, you can carry out both  
assemble editing and insert editing automatically. All  
of the necessary editing functions are provided to set  
and amend edit points, to preview and review results  
of editing, and so on.  
DMC editing  
Rack mounting  
This allows automatic editing with a varying playback  
speed memorized beforehand for an edit segment.  
Using the optional RMM-131 Rack Mount Adaptor,  
you can mount the unit in a standard EIA 19-inch rack.  
For details of rack mounting, refer to the Installation  
Manual.  
Split editing  
In insert editing, this allows editing with the audio IN  
and OUT points to be displaced from the video edit  
points.  
Preread editing  
This allows you to play back prerecorded video and  
audio material, edit it by applying effects with an  
external device, and then rerecord in real time on the  
same tape.

4-2-3 Dynamic Motion Control (DMC) Playback  
Overview  
DMC playback allows you to vary the playback speed  
for a certain section of a tape, in variable speed mode  
(from –1 to +3 times normal speed for digital Betacam  
playback, from –1 to +3 times normal speed for MPEG  
IMX playback, from –1 to +2 times normal speed for  
Betacam SX playback, or from –1 to +3 times normal  
speed for analog Betacam playback), and store the  
varying speed in memory for later playback at the  
same varying speed.  
For example, during a live broadcast of a sporting  
event you can set the start and end points of highlights  
while recording, and then provide immediate DMC  
playback of those highlights.  
During DMC playback the tape moves as shown in the  
following figure.

5-1 Automatic Editing  
This section describes how to carry out automatic  
editing with this unit and another VTR connected to  
the REMOTE1-IN(9P) connector.  
Sequence of editing operations  
The following flowchart outlines the sequence of  
operations in automatic editing with two VTRs.  
5-1-1 Overview  
Selecting the editing mode (page 5-3)  
Setting the recorder and player edit points (page 5-3)  
Previewing the edit segments (page 5-7)  
Editing mode  
• Assemble editing  
This is the editing mode in which successive portions  
of the edited result are recorded on the end of the  
already completed section.  
The CTL signal, video signal, audio signal, and time  
code are all newly recorded on the tape.  
• Insert editing  
Amending edit points as necessary (page 5-6)  
In this mode, new material is recorded at an  
intermediate point of an existing recording.  
The CTL signal is not recorded. The video signal,  
audio signal, and time code signal can all be  
independently recorded.  
Carrying out automatic editing (page 5-8)  
Checking the editing results as necessary (page 5-9)  
You can carry out DMC editing in both editing modes.  
In insert editing, split editing is also possible.  
Using an editing control unit  
When controlling this unit with an editing control unit,  
set an edit delay on the editing control unit so that cut  
in and cut out instructions are output 5 frames before  
the actual edit point.  
Using CTL to interpolate time code values  
When you are using time code values as edit point  
addresses, the time code must be recorded on the tape  
in correct time sequence (i.e. the sections must be in  
strictly ascending time order).  
Notes on video output to the monitor  
If the time code values are all in correct time sequence,  
then if there are any discontinuities in the time code,  
the unit allows them to be interpolated using the CTL  
counter.  
In E-E mode, the video output of the unit is delayed by  
the time for video circuit processing with respect to the  
input video signal (8H).  
Unlike the playback operations described in Chapter 4,  
for playback to be carried out in editing mode with  
both the player and recorder specified, you can use  
setup menu item 701 to delay the SYNC phase,  
delaying it by 8H.  
Recording time code  
For automatic editing, regardless of the TCG (F1) and  
TCG (F2) settings, time code is recorded continuously  
from the previous time code recorded on the tape.  
Using setup menu item 610, it is also possible to record time  
code according to the settings in the function menu.

5-1-4 Setting Edit Points  
Automatic setting of edit points  
Set the edit points (IN and OUT points). To use split  
editing in insert mode, you can set the audio and video  
edit points separately.  
Editing requires four edit points: the IN and OUT  
points on both the recorder and player. However, once  
any three of these points are defined, the last point is  
set automatically. For example, if you set the recorder  
IN and OUT points, and the player IN point, the player  
OUT point is set automatically.  
To set an edit point  
Note

Automatic setting of edit points in split editing  
Split editing requires a total of eight edit points: four  
video edit points (player IN and OUT and recorder IN  
and OUT) and four audio edit points (player audio IN  
and OUT and recorder audio IN and OUT). However,  
as soon as you set five points, the system automatically  
calculates and sets the remaining three points.

6 At the editing end point (the recorder OUT point),  
press the PLAY button.  
This refers to editing using as the player an external  
device which cannot be controlled remotely through  
the REMOTE1-IN(9P) connector. For example, you  
can record a color bar signal from a signal generator in  
the joints between the scenes of an already completed  
tape.  
Editing ends, and the recorder continues with  
playback.

playback.  
Carrying out standalone editing  
Set the IN point with neither the PLAYER button or  
RECORDER button lit.  
5-3-5 Preread Editing  
Video and digital audio signals already recorded on the  
tape can be used as an edit source for insert editing.  
This type of editing is called “preread editing”, as this  
unit uses the preread heads to read the signals in  
advance from the tape.  
The AUTO EDIT button flashes, and it is now possible  
to carry out automatic editing.  
If necessary, you can also first set the OUT point.  
The signals read out can be send to a mixer for mixing,  
and can be recorded either on the original channels or  
on other digital audio channels.  
For preread editing, set the PREREAD to ON (see  
page 11-8).

Notes  
• In preread editing, if an input video signal is used as  
the reference signal for the output video signal, this  
forms a feedback loop. To prevent the occurrence of  
feedback, set the OUTREF in function menu page 4  
to REF, and set item 309 in the extended setup menu  
to AUTO 1 so as to use an external reference signal.  
• When the preread mode is selected, to prevent  
feedback due to the loop connection, whatever the  
editing mode of this unit, no E-E video output is  
available.  
When the PREREAD is set to OFF after preread  
editing, however, if the loop connection remains and  
an E-E signal is output, feedback will occur.  
To prevent this, select PB mode for the video and  
digital audio channels in all the modes before the  
preread editing, as follows.  
1 Set PB/EE in function menu HOME page to PB.  
2 Set the PREREAD in function menu page 4 to ON.  
3 Make the necessary connections for the preread  
editing.  
4 After selecting the desired insert editing mode,  
carry out the preread editing.  
5 When the preread editing is completed, remove the  
connections.  
6 Set the PREREAD to OFF.  
7 Check that no loop connection remains.

6-1 Overview  
This unit can record shot marks or use shot marks  
recorded in digital Betacam, MPEG IMX, or Betacam  
SX format.  
Shot marks are indications at desired points on a tape  
which enable faster cueing.  
Types of shot mark  
This unit supports the following three types of shot  
mark. This chapter describes recording start marks and  
post marks, treating them as varieties of shot marks.

setting for each recording mode (crash recording,  
assemble editing, insert editing).  
For each mode for which the setting is “ON”, the  
mark is written automatically at the start of  
recording.  
Shot mark 1 and  
shot mark 2  
Written by a manual shot  
mark operation during  
recording or editing.  
Written by a button operation during crash  
recording or assemble editing. A menu setting  
determines which of three types of mark is  
written: shot mark 1, shot mark 2, or post mark.

recording (crash recording or assemble editing).  
First, the shot mark functions of this unit are described  
in simple terms.  
Cueing up to shot marks  
By selecting a desired shot mark from the shot mark  
list, you can cue up immediately to that position. By  
means of a button operation, you can also cue up to the  
shot marks adjacent to the current tape position (index  
function).  
Reading shot marks  
This unit reads in shot marks written on a tape and  
stores them in memory. (To a maximum of 200)  
Once this data is stored in this unit, it is preserved even  
when the power is turned off.  
Shot data display  
When the tape includes shot data (camera, time, and  
other information captured at the time of shooting),  
you can read this in, and display the details on a  
monitor. It is also possible to display the shot mark list  
and shot data simultaneously.  
Writing and erasing shot marks  
For recording start marks, a menu setting determines  
whether or not they are written each time recording  
starts. Shot mark 1, shot mark 2, and post mark types  
can be written at any point on a tape, and also erased  
or rewritten.  
Sorting shot marks by cassette  
When the tape includes shot data, this unit recognizes  
which cassette each shot mark comes from. You can  
therefore sort the read-in shot marks by cassette in  
time code order.  
Shot mark list operations  
On the monitor, you can display a list of the shot  
marks read in by this unit, select required shot marks,  
delete shot marks, and so on. You can also add a  
memo mark (#) to a shot mark in the list.  
During tape playback, you can add virtual shot marks  
to the list. This is not written on the tape itself.

7-1 Overview of Tele-File Functions  
Tele-File is a non-contact data carrier system.  
Data management in clip units  
Tele-File increases the efficiency of data management  
and operations such as recording, playback, and  
editing by enabling information to be exchanged  
between VTRs with data reading and writing functions  
and cassettes with Tele-File labels.  
In Tele-File, data is managed in units called “clips.” A  
clip consists of the following data items, whose  
settings can be displayed and changed.  
• Cue point  
• Write protect  
• Mark  
• Recording start point  
• IN point  
• OUT point  
• Take number  
• Cut number  
• Scene number  
• Comment  
Memory label  
Newly developed IC  
Data library management with handy  
reader/writer  
The Tele-File system employs a newly developed  
memory IC with the following features.  
• Thin design: With a thickness of 0.5 mm, the IC can  
be attached to cassettes as a memory label.  
• Memory capacity: 1 KB (user area, rewritable)  
• Data transfer speed: 100 kbps  
An optional handy reader/writer (supporting Memory  
Stick) is available to facilitate data library  
management.  
• Security functions: Reading and writing  
authorization can be controlled through multiple  
passwords and permission settings.

8-1 Overview of UMID Functions  
The UMID (Unique Material Identifier) is a type of  
meta-data in video and audio materials. It has been  
internationally standardized in SMPTE Standard  
330M. This unit supports recording and generation of  
UMIDs.  
The UMID is made up of a section called the “Basic”  
section and a section called the “Source Pack” section.  
The Basic section contains information such as the  
device that recorded the material and whether the  
material is the original or a copy. The Source Pack  
section contains information about when/where/who  
recorded the material.  
A UMID with a Basic section only is called a Basic  
UMID. A UMID with both Basic and Source Pack  
sections is called an Extended UMID. The following

8-2 Recording UMIDs  
UMIDs can be recorded when recording video signals  
with this unit. You can select whether to inherit (copy)  
the UMID contained in input signals, or automatically  
or forcibly generate a new UMID.  
Selecting the SDI VANC line to insert the  
UMID  
You can select the VANC 1) line into which the  
generated UMID should be inserted. Make this  
selection by using setup menu item 652 UMID SD  
VANC LINE.  
Selecting the type of UMID to record  
Select whether to record a Basic UMID or an Extended  
UMID by using setup menu item 655 UMID  
RECORDING.  
See page 12-18 for more information about setup menu item  
652.  
Note  
See page 12-18 for more information about setup menu item  
655.  
UMID data in the input signal may not be readable if  
the line where UMID data is inserted into SDI input  
signals is the same as the line where this unit inserts  
VITC (setup menu item 601 (page 12-16) and setup  
menu item 602 (page 12-16)), or if that line is subject  
to blanking (setup menu item 723 (page 12-24)). In  
cases like these, change the setup menu settings.  
Selecting whether to inherit or generate  
the UMID  
When recording a UMID, you can select whether to  
inherit (copy) the UMID contained in input signals, or  
generate a new UMID. Make this selection by using  
setup menu item 656 MATERIAL NO.  
To avoid the above situation, the following settings are  
recommended.  
• For setup menu item 652, chose a line that is different  
from the lines chosen for setup menu items 601 and  
602.  
See page 12-19 for more information about setup menu item  
656.  
• Do not use setup menu item 723 (page 12-24) to  
blank the line chosen for setup menu item 652.  
Selecting the Instance Number generation  
method when inheriting UMIDs  
If you choose to inherit the UMID contained in input  
signals, almost all of the information in the UMID is  
copied without change, but the Instance Number  
changes to a value which indicates that “this UMID is  
a copy”. The new value can be generated from a 16-bit  
pseudo-random number with the addition of the  
number of copies (1 byte), or it can be generated from  
a 24-bit pseudo-random number. Select the method  
used to generate the Instance Number by using setup  
menu item 654 UMID GENERATE METHOD.  
To set Stored Ownership  
If you wish to set Stored Ownership (data in the  
Source Pack which indicates “who”) when generating  
a UMID, call up item 029 STORED OWNERSHIP in  
the setup menu and proceed as follows.  
See Section 12-2 “Setup Menu Operations” (page 12-2) for  
more information about basic setup menu operations.

REGEN MODE  
Select the signal output from the TIME CODE OUT connector during normal (×1)  
speed playback in the following cases:  
• For tape playback when the function menu item TCG (F1) is set to INT and TCG  
(F2) set to REGEN.  
• For preroll or postroll playback during automatic editing with the tape.  
TAPE: During tape playback, the playback time code signal is output without  
regeneration. (The time code values do not correspond to the video output.)  
REGEN : The playback time code is output after regeneration.  
AUTO: The operation with the AUTO setting is as follows.  
• The playback time code (LTC) signal is output delayed, to coincide with the  
output video signal.  
• Operation is independent of the internal time code generator settings or editing  
state.  
• The output video signal and LTC are only accurately synchronized for normal  
speed playback.  
• If the edit preset is turned on or off, the delay changes, and therefore the time  
code will be discontinuous.

(F2) set to PRESET, and in modes other than the automatic editing mode): the  
time code signal is generated with color framing locked to the video signal, and  
the color framing flag is set.  
• In INT REGEN mode (the function menu item TCG (F1) is set to INT and TCG  
(F2) set to REGEN, and in the automatic editing mode), and also in EXT mode  
(the function menu item TCG (F1) is set to EXT): the time code signal is

14-4 Moisture Condensation  
When the unit is suddenly moved from a cold to a  
warm location, or used in a very humid place, moisture  
from the air can condense on the head-drum. This is  
called moisture condensation. If the tape is run in this  
state, it can adhere to the drum. To prevent such a  
condition from occurring, the unit is provided with a  
moisture detecting function.  
If this happens, the drum and capstan motors stop and  
the cassette is automatically ejected. Then, the durm  
starts to rotate again to dry its surface. In this state, the  
unit is not operable. When the moisture has  
evaporated, the error message disappears and the  
ALARM indicator goes off.  
If “ERR-10” appears and the ALARM indicator  
lights immediately after powering the unit on  
Leave the unit powered on and wait until the error  
message disappears and the indicator goes off.  
While the indicator is lit, you cannot insert a cassette.  
When the indicator goes off and the error message  
disappears, you can use the unit.  
If moisture condenses on the head-drum while the unit  
is in use, the ALARM indicator lights and “ERR-10”  
is displayed in the time data display area 1.  
Z
If you move the unit from a cold to a warm  
location  
Leave the unit powered off for about 10 minutes, in  
order to give the unit time to detect moisture  
condensation.

14-5-2 Maintenance Timings  
Use the following table as a timing guide for checking  
and replacing components of the unit.  
Note that an arrow in the table means that the  
component to be replaced is part of the assembly the  
arrow points to, which must be replaced as a whole.  
These intervals are not guaranteed lifetimes; the timing  
for replacing components depends on the particular  
conditions of use. In particular, depending on the  
degree of dirt contamination and abrasion, pinch  
rollers and cleaners may require replacement earlier  
than suggested by this table.  
For information on severe conditions (frequent threading/  
unthreading) or how to replace components, refer to the  
Maintenance Manual Volume 1.
