UMID Functions
5-1 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 generation of UMIDs
recorded in the Digital Betacam or MPEG IMX
format.
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.
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.

8-1 Removing a Cassette When Tape Slack Occurs
If tape slack occurs in the unit, it is necessary to
remove the top and bottom plates. This job should
always be entrusted to a technician who has undergone
service training.
See the maintenance manual for details.
8-2 Head Cleaning
To clean the video heads and audio heads, always use
the special-purpose Sony BCT-HD12CL cleaning
cassette.
Follow the instructions with the cleaning cassette
carefully, as inappropriate use of the cleaning cassette
can damage the heads.
To carry out head cleaning
Insert the cleaning cassette.
Head cleaning starts.
After an automatic head cleaning operation which lasts
for about 3 seconds, the cleaning cassette is
automatically ejected.

8-3 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 condensation detecting function.
If moisture condenses on the head-drum while the unit
is in use, the ALARM indicator flashes and “E10-
0000” is displayed in the time data display area.
“E10-0000” is displayed in the time data display area.
ALARM indicator
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 ALARM indicator goes off and the
“E10-0000” message disappears.
If the ALARM indicator lights and “E10-0000”
appears immediately after powering the unit
on
Leave the unit powered on and wait until the ALARM
indicator goes off and the error message disappears.
Do not insert a cassette while the indicator is lit.
Use the unit when the indicator goes off and the error
message disappears.
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.
