1-1 Features
The HDW-M2100/M2100P is a high-definition (HD)
digital videocassette player based on the HDCAM
format.
High-precision digital signal processing
and range of interfaces
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.
In addition to HDCAM format playback, the unit can
also play back tapes recorded in the Digital Betacam,
MPEG IMX, Betacam SX, and analog Betacam
formats.
The digital signal processing uses HD 4:2:2
component video signals complying with SMPTE
292M, which are converted into parallel data and then
compressed into HDCAM format.
The audio signals are based on AES/EBU format, and
are subjected to digital signal processing without being
compressed.
The unit is equipped with a high definition to standard
definition (HD to SD) downward converter, and has
the following interfaces as standard equipment, for
ease of connection to different external devices.
• SD analog composite signal output
• SD analog component signal output
• Analog audio signal input/output (4 channels)
• HDSDI SMPTE 292M input/output (HD digital
video/audio, 4 channels)
HDCAM format
The HDCAM format uses the same 12.65-mm width
tape as the conventional Betacam series. It provides
high definition images, offering up to two hours of
recording. For video signal compression, prefiltration
and coefficient recording technologies are used.
• SDI SMPTE 259M output (component digital video/
audio, 4 channels)
CUE track
• AES/EBU serial digital audio input/output (4
channels)
Direction of tape travel
• SDTI SMPTE 305M input/output (HDCAM video/
audio data) (option)
• Time code input/output
Direction of head
motion
Video
SATa)
Audio
• CUE audio output
Video
High quality four-channel audio
High quality 20 bit/48 kHz AES/EBU digital audio is
supported. There are four digital audio input/output
channels, and four analog audio input/output channels.
Control (CTL) track
Time code track
a) Supplemental Automatic Tracking signal
Playback of SDTI compressed data
(optional)
High-performance heads and compatibility
playback functions
This unit can be fitted with SDTI input/output
complying with SMPTE 305M, and can therefore be
used for transferring HDCAM data, audio data,
metadata, and so on to a VTR or nonlinear device via
an SDTI interface.
The newly developed high-performance heads and
dynamic tracking (DT) technology provide high-
density playback in narrow tracks with high reliability.
In addition to HDCAM playback heads, the unit is
equipped with Betacam SX playback heads and analog
Betacam DT heads, for playback compatibility with
existing recording formats. The VTR automatically
detects the recording format of tapes when they are
loaded, so that no menu settings need to be made when
changing formats.
Multifunction control panel
While built in a compact 4U size, this unit has a front
panel which provides a wide range of functions while
maintaining existing operability.

1-1 Features
Basic operation buttons and jog/shuttle
dial
Downward converter function
The unit has an HD-to-SD downward converter
function, and can output standard definition SDI,
analog component and analog composite signals even
while playing back an HDCAM format tape.
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.
Upward converter function
Time data display
The unit features a standard definition to high
definition (SD-to-HD) upward converter as standard
equipment. This allows high-quality HD signals to be
output even when playing back tapes recorded in
formats other than HDCAM.
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.
Menu-based control interface
Tele-File functions
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.
Tele-File enables data writing/reading between
cassettes with memory labels and VTRs. It increases
the efficiency of operations such as cuing up and
playback, and source data management.
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.
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.
High quality variable speed playback and
digital jog sound function
Additionally, a parallel (50-pin) interface is also fitted
as standard, supporting easy external control through
the parallel interface.
In HDCAM format playback, the dedicated playback
DT heads allow smooth, noiseless playback. During
Betacam SX playback, noiseless playback is achieved
through unique multihead playback technology.
In slow motion operation, the digital jog sound
function provides the same ease of operation as for a
conventional analog VTR.
Rack mounting
Using the optional RMM-131 Rack Mount Adaptor,
you can mount the unit in a standard EIA 19-inch rack.
DMC editing
For details of rack mounting, refer to the Installation
Manual.
This allows automatic playback with a varying speed
memorized beforehand for the desired segment.

5-1 Overview
This unit allows the use of shot marks. Shot marks are
indications at desired points on a tape which enable
faster cuing.
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.
Types of shot mark
During tape playback, you can add virtual shot marks
to the list. This is not written on the tape itself.
On this unit, you can write post marks by a button
operation during playback, while stopped, or during a
search. It is possible to modify or erase the post marks.
This chapter describes the use of shot marks including
post marks.
Cuing 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).
First, the shot mark functions of this unit are described
in simple terms.
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
Post marks 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.

6-1 Overview of Tele-File Functions
Tele-File is a non-contact data carrier system.
Data management in clip units
Tele-File enables data writing/reading between
cassettes with memory labels and VTRs. It increases
the efficiency of operations such as cuing up and
playback, and source data management.
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
Data library management with handy
reader/writer
Newly developed IC
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.

7-1 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
figure shows a general overview of the information
contained in a UMID.

10-3
10-4 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 drum
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 moisture condenses on the head-drum while the unit
is in use, the ALARM indicator lights and “ERR-10”
is displayed in time data display area 1.
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.
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.

10-5-2 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.
