Overview  
1
Chapter  
Input interface  
The input interface is based on the HD SDI (HD Serial  
Digital Interface) format specified by BTA S-004B/005B/  
006B (SMPTE 291M/292M/299M) and ARIB STD-B4,  
allowing a single BNC coaxial cable to carry one  
component video signal, twelve digital audio channels,  
and time code in time division multiplex; this is separated  
for conversion to parallel data.  
1-1 Features  
1-1-1 Features of the SRW-5000/  
SRW-5500  
Audio recording can be switched between the digital audio  
signal multiplexed with the HD SDI signal and the audio  
signal from an AES/EBU digital interface.  
The SRW-5000/SRW-5500 is a high-definition digital  
videocassette recorder using the HDCAM-SR format. It is  
a small and light unit incorporating LSIs for signal  
1)  
processing and is comparable to the HDCAM model  
Bit rate reduction encoder  
HDW-F500 in size, weight and functionality.  
The SRW-5500 only is a recorder supporting both the  
HDCAM-SR and HDCAM formats.  
The component video signal undergoes frame shuffling. It  
is then compressed by a process in which it is subjected to  
DCT (discrete cosine transform) or DPCM (differential  
pulse code modulation), quantization control, and variable  
length word encoding. This is the core of the newly  
developed MPEG-4 Studio Profile. Interlaced signals are  
compressed in fields and progressive signals are  
compressed in frames.  
1) HDCAM is a trademark of Sony Corporation.  
HDCAM-SR format  
The HDCAM-SR format exploits technological advances  
in signal processing and magnetic recording, to provide  
functionality comparable to that of the HDCAM format,  
while offering HD digital recording and playback with  
high image and sound quality.  
ECC encoder  
The outer ECC (Error Correction Code) is added to the  
compressed video and audio data, followed by the inner  
ECC, ID data, and sync data. Reed-Solomon codes are  
employed in this error correction system.  
The technology incorporated in this unit includes the  
following.  
• Highly efficient and mild data compression using newly  
developed MPEG-4 Studio Profile  
• Powerful error-correcting codes  
• High-performance, high-accuracy heads and drum with  
dynamic tracking (DT ™), together with a new auto-  
tracking technique, yielding highly reliable narrow track  
recording and playback.  
Channel coding  
Video and audio data with the ECC added is recorded in  
the form of serial data. The HDCAM-SR format adopts a  
scrambled i-NRZ channel coding system, giving  
consideration to off-track and noise characteristics.  
Playback signal processing  
The playback digital signal is equalized by an equalizer  
circuit. It then passes powerful inner and outer ECCs  
which can correct dropouts in the reproduced signal. It  
further goes through an error concealment circuit to have  
errors still remaining in the signal rectified.  
These technologies allow 120 minutes of recording on an  
HDCAM-SR cassette (L type), the same size as the  
HDCAM cassette.  
Digital signal processing  
In this unit, 4:2:2 component video signals obtained by  
quantization according to ITU-R709, SMPTE 274M and  
BTA S-002B (SMPTE 260M) are compressed using  
MPEG-4 Studio Profile. Audio signals are processed  
uncompressed, according to the AES/EBU format.  
Output interface  
Component video data is converted into serial data and  
multiplexed with audio data and time code, then output in  
the HD SDI format.

With an HD-SD converter board installed, the unit can  
output both D1 SDI and analog composite signals.  
Besides audio data is output as digital data multiplexed  
with the HD SDI signal, it is also output via an AES/EBU  
digital interface. Analog data converted from digital data is  
also provided.  
Noiseless playback with DT heads  
When using the HDCAM-SR or HDCAM format, the  
dedicated playback DT heads allow you to perform  
noiseless playback in the range from –1 to +2 times normal  
speed, including still-picture playback. When using the  
Digital Betacam format, the playback range is from –1 to  
+3. However, Digital Betacam playback requires the  
HKSR-5002 (option).  
HDCAM format  
Video and audio confidence heads  
Video and audio (channels 1 through 12, or 4 channels for  
the HDCAM format (SRW-5500 only)) signals can be  
recorded and simultaneously played back to check the  
recording.  
The HDCAM format uses tape with the same 12.65 mm  
width as the Betacam series to enable recording of up to  
two hours of high-quality HD video. Video signal  
compression uses prefilter and coefficient recording  
technology.  
Internal time code generator and reader  
The internal time code generator allows you to record time  
code (LTC or user bits) together with video and audio  
signals. Time codes (LTC or user bits) can be read during  
playback using the time code reader.  
Advanced recording and playback  
functions  
High-quality digital recording  
This unit uses a component system to record video signals.  
An AES/EBU format with a wide dynamic range is used  
for 12-channel audio recording. A unique and powerful  
error correction circuit and concealment circuit are used in  
digital signal processing.  
Computer servo system  
Computer-controlled servo motors provide direct drive for  
the drum, capstan, and two reels, enabling quick and  
accurate tape access.  
Accurate and stable video signal output is made possible  
by setting and adjusting the internal digital video  
processor.  
Capstan override function  
You can adjust the playback speed by 15% to ensure  
synchronization between, for example, two VTRs playing  
back the same program.  
Record/playback modes  
HDCAM-SR format (SRW-5000/5500) or HDCAM  
format (SRW-5500)

LTC cannot be read when the tape speed is very slow or is changed  
suddenly. VITC, on the other hand, can be read more accurately than LTC  
when the VTR is stopped or the tape speed is very low. VITC, however,  
cannot be read when the tape speed is very fast.  
2) CTL signals  
CTL (control) signals are pulse signals that are recorded horizontally in  
each frame.  
3) User bits  
These represent supplementary information as part of the recorded time  
code, and consist of eight hexadecimal digits (0-9 and A-F).  
Time data for IN, OUT, AIN and AOUT points are also

There are two ways to record time codes on the VTR. One  
way is to record the output of the VTR’s internal time code  
generator. The other is to directly record time codes that  
are input from an external time code generator.  
The output from the internal time code generator can either  
be set to a specified initial value, or synchronized with an  
external time code generator.  
The internal time code generator time code settings are  
made with the [F6] (REGENE SOURCE)/[F7] (TCG

auto: The unit switches to drop frame mode when the field  
frequency is 29.97 Hz, and switches to non-drop  
frame mode when the field frequency is 30 Hz.  
24H: 24-hour clock  
1) Drop frame mode  
In order to compensate for differences between time code values from the  
time code generator and the actual time that occurs when the frame  
frequency of this unit is 29.97 Hz, the drop frame mode causes the time  
code generator to omit the first two frames (frame 00 and 01) in each  
minute except the tenth.  
4-3-8 Presetting Pulldown Time  
Code (PDPSET MENU)  
(when HKSR-5001 is installed)  
2) Non-drop frame mode  
In this mode, drop frame mode processing is not performed. Since there is  
no frame cutting, a discrepancy of about 86 seconds occurs each day in the  
case of a frame frequency of 29.97 Hz.  
To preset the pulldown time code when this VTR is  
operated in 23.98PsF/24PsF mode, use the following  
procedure.  
Notes  
• This setting is only active when the frame frequency of  
the unit is 29.97 Hz or 30 Hz.  
• When the [F7] (TCG MODE) button is set to “regene”,  
the drop frame mode is inoperative since the time code  
generator is synchronized to the playback time code.

You can perform backspace editing with the CUE menu. In  
backspace editing, assemble editing is performed from the  
recording end point. Thus, before starting backspace  
editing for the first time, you must record for at least one  
minute or so on the tape before you can do backspace  
editing. After recording, the present end of the recorded  
portion becomes the recording end point. When you press  
the AUTO button and then press the REC/EDIT button, the  
VTR automatically prerolls a few seconds before the  
recording end point and starts assemble editing. If no data  
for the recording end point exist, backspace editing is not  
performed.

5-4-4 DMC Playback  
Overview of DMC playback  
5-4-3 Capstan Override Playback  
DMC (Dynamic Motion Control) playback allows you to  
vary the playback speed in variable mode (in the DT  
playback range from –1 to +2 times normal speed) for  
certain sections of the tape, then store the specified speed  
in memory for later playback.  
For example, during a live broadcast of a sporting event,  
you can set the start and end points of important scenes  
while recording, and immediately play back and broadcast  
those scenes using DMC playback.  
When playing back the same program on two VTRs, you  
can adjust the playback phases of the two VTRs so that  
they are synchronized.  
There are two ways to make this adjustment:  
(A) Using the search dial  
(B) Using the +/– buttons  
Note  
When using method (A), change the system setup so that  
jog/shuttle mode playback is inhibited even when the  
search dial is rotated. Doing so prevents the VTR from  
accidentally entering jog/shuttle mode during capstan  
override playback.  
Storing playback speeds in memory  
Follow the procedure below to store DMC playback  
speeds in memory.

Note  
During program play you can correct the pitch of audio  
signals.  
During program play, HD SDI signals are output from  
the FC OUT connectors only. They are not output  
from the HD SDI OUTPUT connectors.  
Note  
The program play function is available only when all of the  
following conditions are met.  
• Combination of SRW-5000/5500 and HKSR-5001 serial  
numbers:  
SRW-5000/5500: Serial No. 12001 or higher  
HKSR-5001: Serial No. 11001 or higher  
• Tape format: HDCAM-SR  
• System frequency: 4:2:2/1080/59.94i or 720/59.94P. No  
audio is output when playing tapes recorded at other  
system frequencies.  
About audio pitch correction  
Some menu settings are required to enable audio pitch  
correction during program play.  
When audio pitch correction is enabled, it is also carried  
out at times other than during program play, whenever an  
HDCAM-SR tape is played that has a system setting  
(frame frequency) that is different from the current system  
setting. However, the difference between system settings  
must be within 5%, as shown below.  
• Note about editing: Always use time code to check and  
set edit points when editing while performing program  
play on the player. Precise editing operations cannot be  
guaranteed if you use CTL signals.  
23.98 frames y 24 frames  
23.98/24 frames y 25 frames  
29.97 frames y 30 frames  
To enable pitch correction  
Set VTR SETUP menu item 816 “PITCH  
CORRECTION” to “on”.  
To execute program play  
Proceed as follows to execute program play.  
Pitch correction group settings  
You can use VTR SETUP menu item 817 “PITCH  
CORRECTION GROUP select” to assign the 12 audio  
channels to groups.

You can assign up to 6 channels to 1 group. Pitch  
correction is performed at the same time for all channels in  
a group, so phase differences do not arise. However, phase  
differences may arise between different groups.  
Pitch correction detection mode settings  
You can use VTR SETUP menu item 818 “PITCH  
CORRECTION DETECT MODE select” to specify the  
detection mode for each pitch correction group.

level samples are detected around the zero-cross  
points.  
Mode3: At a regular interval corresponding to the  
playback speed, connect the audio data before and  
after the processing target with a cross fade.  
OFF: Output audio data by performing rate conversion  
processing. This changes the frequency  
characteristics and pitch according to the specified

scenes.  
CTL signals, time codes, video and audio signals on tape  
in the player are recorded onto tape in the recorder VTR.  
Editing precautions  
Using an editing control unit  
When using an editing control unit to control the VTR, set  
the edit delay on the control unit so that CUT-IN and CUT-  
OUT commands are sent to the VTR five frames ahead of  
the actual edit point.  
Insert mode  
New scenes are inserted between previously recorded  
scenes.  
CTL signals on tape in the recorder VTR are not  
overwritten. Video, digital audio, and time code signals  
can be recorded separately.  
Both of these two edit modes support DMC editing. In  
insert mode, you can also use split editing.  
Interpolation of time codes by the CTL counter  
To use time codes as addresses of edit points, the time  
codes must be recorded on the tape in ascending order.  
As long as they are in ascending order, time codes do not  
have to be continuous. The CTL counter automatically  
interpolates data for editing even if there are breaks in the  
continuity in the time codes.

About automatic split edit point setting  
Split editing requires a total of eight edit points: four edit  
points for video editing (IN and OUT points for both the  
recorder and player VTRs) and four edit points for audio  
editing (AUDIO IN and OUT points for both the recorder  
and player VTRs). However, as soon as you set five edit  
points, the VTR automatically sets the remaining three  
points. For example, if you set three edit points for video  
(or audio) and two for audio (or video), the remaining three  
points are automatically set, regardless of whether these  
points are for the recorder or player.  
The button you pressed lights.

entered value consists of less than eight digits, the  
leading digit(s) is (are) set to zero(s) when you press  
the SET button.)  
In the following example, the points enclosed in a box  
have been set manually and the AUDIO OUT point for the  
recorder VTR, and the AUDIO IN and OUT points for the

6-2-3 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 the VTR uses  
preread heads to read signals in advance. Signals that are  
read in advance can be sent to mixers for mixing, then  
recorded to the original channels or other digital audio  
channels.  
To confirm the results of DMC editing  
Press the PREVIEW/REVIEW button.  
6-2-2 Animation Editing  
Animation editing is a form of insert editing which makes  
it easier to record a succession of still frames in fixed field  
or frame units. The procedure for editing after selecting  
animation editing is exactly the same as for normal insert  
editing.  
The preread editing settings are performed with the ALT/  
[F1] (PRE READ) buttons in the HOME menu.  
To select animation editing, use the VTR SETUP menu  
item 301 “EDIT OPERATION MODE”.

Notes  
• In preread editing, if an input video signal is used as the  
reference signal for the output video signal, oscillation  
may occur because of loop connections. To avoid this,  
select the external reference signal for preread editing by  
setting the VTR SETUP menu item 005 “SERVO/AV  
REFERENCE select” to “external”.  
• When preread mode is selected, no E-E signals are  
output in any operation modes to prevent oscillation  
caused by loop connections. If preread mode is  
deselected while a loop between the input and output of  
the same channel exists, E-E signals are output and  
oscillation occurs. To prevent oscillation, do the  
procedure below to select PB mode for both the video  
and digital audio channels before the start of preread  
editing.

ERROR - 10  
PB/EE  
Use the BCT-HD12CL Cleaning Cassette to clean the  
video and audio heads. Read the instructions included with  
the cleaning cassette carefully, as improper usage can  
damage the heads.  
If you insert the cleaning cassette, it is automatically  
ejected after a head cleaning operation which lasts for 10  
seconds.

Note  
When this error message appears, the VTR enters the  
protection mode and certain operations become  
inoperable.  
Do not run the cleaning tape more than 6 times in  
succession to avoid damaging the heads.  
Once the moisture has evaporated, the error message  
disappears and the VTR becomes normal.  
Please refer to the Maintenance Manual Volume 1 on  
cleaning the video and audio heads.  
Please refer to the Maintenance Manual Volume 1 on  
protection mode.  
Moisture Condensation  
If “ERROR-10” appears immediately after turning  
the VTR on  
Leave the VTR turned on and wait until the error message  
goes off. Inserting a cassette is not possible while the  
message is on.  
If you suddenly move the VTR from a cold location to a  
warm one, or use the VTR in a very humid place, moisture  
in the air can form on the head-drum or tape guide. This is  
called moisture condensation.  
If you play a tape under these conditions, the tape may  
adhere to the drum where moisture has collected and  
become damaged.  
When the error message disappears, you can use the VTR.  
If you move the VTR from a cold to a warm  
location  
Leave the VTR turned off for about ten minutes since some  
time is needed for the condensation-detection mechanism  
to work.  
If moisture condenses on the head-drum while you are  
operating the VTR, the error message “ERROR-10”  
appears in the time data display section.

Error Messages and Warning Messages  
Error Messages  
When the unit ceases to operate correctly due to  
malfunction or an internal system error, the alarm will  
sound and an error message will be displayed on the  
display.  
Only one message will be displayed even when multiple  
errors occur, but the error log menu keeps a history of the  
errors.  
Protection mode  
To protect the tape and the mechanical parts of the VTR,  
the servo control system automatically stops tape transport  
and the drum motor and enters protection mode when an  
error occurs.  
Cassettes may not be inserted or ejected during protection  
mode.  
For more information about error messages, refer to the  
Maintenance Manual.  
Note  
When a cassette is stuck in the unit because of protection  
mode, make sure to disconnect the power before removing  
the cassette manually.  
After the error occurs, eliminate the cause of the error and  
turn the unit back on. If the error message appears again  
when the unit is turned on, contact your Sony  
representative.  
For information about removing cassettes manually, refer  
to the Maintenance Manual (Volume 1).  
For more information about eliminating errors, refer to  
the Maintenance Manual (Volume 1).

Glossary  
AES/EBU format  
Color frame locking  
Drop frame mode  
A standard format for the transfer of  
digital audio signals. In this format,  
two audio signals can be input/output  
through one XLR-type connector.  
A procedure in which the time code  
frame value is set to an odd number  
for the first and second color fields,  
and to an even number for the third  
and fourth color fields.  
When the field frequency of this unit  
is 59.94 Hz, the actual number of  
frames per second is approximately  
29.97, while the time code value  
advances one second every 30  
frames. In drop frame mode, the time  
code is advanced such a way that this  
difference in the value between real  
time and the time codes is corrected.  
Specifically, two frames are skipped  
at the beginning of each minute,  
except for every tenth minute, so that  
the frame value for time codes  
matches that for real time.  
Assemble editing  
An edit mode for adding new scenes  
to the end of previously recorded  
scenes. New video signals are  
recorded for each control signal, but  
continuity with the control signal  
preceding the edit point is maintained  
electrically. Because assemble  
editing in the middle of a scene will  
cause a break in the video image at  
the end of the insertion, this is not a  
practical method for inserting new  
video data. This should be done with  
insert editing.  
Color framing  
A method to maintain color  
subcarrier phase continuity by  
performing editing in two-frame  
units in order to achieve stable video  
without horizontal fluctuation at the  
edit points when editing  
downconverted composite video  
signal.  
See also Non-drop frame mode.  
Component video signal  
A video signal that consists of a  
luminance signal (Y) and two  
chrominance (color-difference)  
signals (R-Y, B-Y).  
E-E mode  
Abbreviation for Electric-to-Electric  
mode. In this mode, the signals are  
passed through the VTR’s electronics  
before output but do not pass through  
the magnetic converter circuits such  
as the tape and head circuits. This  
mode is used for confirming input  
signals or adjusting the input level.  
See also Insert editing.  
Backspace editing  
Also called phase matching. During  
backspace editing, the VTR  
automatically rewinds the tape a few  
seconds after recording of a scene has  
been completed. This allows the tape  
to attain a stable speed before the  
start of recording of the next scene,  
thus maintaining signal continuity  
during editing.  
Composite video signal  
A signal that consists of video  
(luminance and color sub carrier),  
sync (horizontal and vertical), and  
color burst signals.  
Effect edit mode  
When editing a tape using a switcher  
or when editing special effects, the  
pixels comprising the picture are  
often not dubbed to the same  
positions as those of the original. In  
the case of repeated dubbings, this  
shifting of pixels produces an  
accumulation of calculation errors  
during the compression/expansion  
process; this may result in an increase  
in low-level noise within the signal.  
The effect edit mode minimizes the  
production of this noise. Note,  
however, that a slight loss in picture  
resolution may be observed in this  
mode.  
Condensation  
Moisture that collects on the head  
drum of the tape transport  
mechanism, causing damage to the  
tape and malfunction of the VTR.  
Bridging connection  
A connection that allows a signal  
input to an input terminal to pass  
through the unit and exit from an  
output terminal for input to a third  
piece of equipment.  
CTL  
Abbreviation for control signal. A  
pulse signal that can be counted, to  
determine the number of frames, and  
therefore the tape’s running time.  
Used mainly for adjusting the  
tracking position of video heads, and  
to achieve time code continuity  
during continuous recording. This  
signal is recorded on a longitudinal  
tape track.  
Capstan  
A drive mechanism that moves the  
tape at a specified speed. Its rotation  
is normally synchronized with a  
reference sync signal.  
Emphasis  
Color frame  
Cue point  
Emphasizing the high frequencies of  
a signal before processing (pre-  
emphasis) and de-emphasizing those  
high frequencies before output (de-  
emphasis). This reduces deterioration  
of the signal-to-noise ratio in the high  
frequency range.  
A color subcarrier phase having one  
cycle that consists of two frames  
(four fields) in the NTSC format.  
A point used to mark the beginning of  
a section of tape so that it can be  
located for later playback or editing.

External synchronization  
A method to maintain color  
Preroll  
Tracking  
The rewinding of a video tape in the  
player or recorder VTR by a certain  
length before an edit point, allowing  
the tape to attain a stable speed at the  
edit point and synchronization with  
the other video tape during editing.  
The synchronizing of the head drum  
rotation phase and tape transport  
phase during playback and recording.  
Tracking is adjusted to eliminate  
picture instability when playing back  
material recorded on another VTR.  
subcarrier phase continuity by  
performing editing in two-frame  
units in order to achieve stable video  
without horizontal fluctuation at the  
edit points. For editing, a recorder  
VTR (or master VTR) and a player  
VTR (or source VTR or slave VTR)  
are used, and external  
synchronization is commonly used to  
ensure that the operation timing  
control signals and time reference  
signals are synchronized.  
Reference video signal  
A video signal containing a sync  
signal or sync and burst signal, used  
as a reference for synchronizing  
video equipment.  
User bits  
A recordable 32-bit section in each  
time code on a video tape for  
recording such information as the  
recording year, month, and day, and  
the tape or program ID number.  
Servolocking  
The locking of the phase and speed of  
a VTR’s head drum rotation and tape  
transport to a reference signal during  
recording and playback.  
Vertical interval time code  
Insert editing  
An edit mode for inserting new  
scenes into the middle of previously  
recorded scenes. CTL signals  
previously recorded on the tape are  
used. Consequently, this mode  
cannot be used for blank tapes. This  
mode assumes that CTL signals have  
somehow be recorded to the tape  
already.  
VITC  
Abbreviation for Vertical Interval  
Time Code. This is a time code  
recorded on a video signal track  
during the vertical blanking interval.  
This VTR writes this time code in the  
AUX data area in the video signals. It  
can be read correctly even during  
slow or still picture playback.  
See also LTC.  
Standby-off mode  
A mode in which head drum rotation  
is stopped and tape tension is  
released, and thus the VTR is not  
ready for immediate recording and  
playback. This mode alleviates the  
tape and video heads from wear or  
damage.  
Longitudinal time code  
See LTC.  
An Standby-on mode  
A mode in which the head drum  
rotates with the tape wrapped around  
it, and thus the VTR is ready for  
immediate recording or playback.  
The VTR enters standby-off mode  
after remaining in standby-on mode  
for a specified length of time to  
prevent wear or damage to the tape  
and video heads.  
LTC  
Abbreviation for Longitudinal Time  
Code. This is the time code recorded  
onto a longitudinal track of the tape.  
During the playback of still pictures,  
LTC cannnot be read since the tape is  
not moving. During slow playback,  
the LTC output is so small that it may  
not be read correctly, depending on  
the playback speed.  
Time code  
See also VITC.  
A digital signal recorded on the video  
tape that supplies information such as  
hour, minute, second and frame  
number for each frame to facilitate  
the setting of edit points or searching  
for specific scenes on the tape.  
There are two types of time codes:  
SMPTE (for the NTSC color system)  
and EBU (for the PAL/SECAM color  
system); and two time code recording  
formats: LTC (longitudinal time  
codes) which are CTL signals and  
audio signals simultaneously  
Non-drop frame mode  
In this mode, drop frame mode  
processing is not performed. Since  
there is no frame cutting, a  
discrepancy of about 86 seconds  
occurs each day (in the case of a field  
frequency of 59.94 Hz) which causes  
problems when editing programs in  
units of seconds using the number of  
frames as a refernce.  
See also Drop frame mode.

and VITC (vertical interval time  
codes) which are recorded on the
