1-3 Precautions
1-4 Precautions for use of head cleaning tape
Adhere to the following precautions when using the head
cleaning tape.
Note 1) When used in a low humidity environment (10%
Installation and storage
Cassette tape
RH to 30% RH), head cleaning should be
conducted at intervals half of those given in the
above chart.
5
To avoid malfunctions or damage to your recorder, do
not use or store it in places subject to the following
conditions.
5
Type
1. The tape runs for 10 seconds at a time in the PLAY
mode. (The tape stops automatically.)
Press the PLAY button after the cleaning tape is fully
loaded.
• Only cassettes bearing the MiniDV mark can be used
with this VCR.
• Exclusive JVC DVM60 or DVM30 cassette tape is
recommended.
Note 2) When an ME80 tape is used immediately after
head cleaning, the VTR warning (head) indicator
may remain on. In this case, let the tape run as the
indicator will turn off after the tape has run for a
while.
– Extreme heat or cold — temperature outside the
allowable range (5˚C to 40˚C)
– Strong magnetic fields (generated by transformers,
motors, etc.)
– Electrical waves generated by equipment such as a
transceiver or cellular phone
– High humidity — outside the allowable operating range
(30% to 80%)
– Dust and soil
– Vibrations
2. Do not use the tape more than four times at the most for
each cleaning.
5
Handling
• Cassette tapes cannot be loaded upside-down.
• Rewind the tape to the beginning before storage.
• The number of times a tape can be reused is limited. If
the tape is reused more than this, increased noise
(such as dropouts) may result. Do not use dirty or
damaged tapes. Doing so not only results in poorer
performance, but may also shorten the service life of
the rotary heads.
3. The cleaning tape can be used approximately 100 times.
Note 3) Use the cleaning tape in the room temperature
5
Use the following chart as a guide for periodical head
cleaning.
(10˚C to 35˚C).
Note 4) The cleaning tape case contains instructions for
use of the cleaning tape. However, some of these
instructions differ from the contents of this sheet.
When using the cleaning tape, please follow the
instructions of this sheet.

– Condensation
• It is possible that some distortion may occur at the
beginning and end of tapes. This can vary depending
on the tape. However, for best results, do not use
these sections of the tape for any important recordings.
• Store cassettes in a case.

Condensation
* If you need to purchase a cleaning tape, consult your JVC
dealer.
5
Do not use this unit immediately after moving it from a
cold place to a warm place or after switching on a heater
in a cold room. This will cause water vapor to condense
on the video head drum and tape guides and may
damage the tape and the VCR.
Erasure prevention
5
When condensation occurs, the DEW indication appears
on the tape counter display and the warning indication
on the on-screen display. Leave the VCR in this state
with the power on and wait until the warning message
turns off.
MiniDV cassettes are provided with a safety slide on the
side to prevent accidental erasure. Set it as required.

Operate the unit in a horizontal (flat) position only.
Avoid violent shocks to the unit.
Power supply
5
5
5
This unit is provided with both AC and DC power
supplies. For editing over an extended period, it is
recommended that you use a stable AC power supply or
DC power supply from an AC adapter. Using battery
power is recommended only as a supplementary power
source or for field use.
Transportation
5
Remove the cassette tape from the unit prior to
transportation.
The AC and DC power supplies are switched automati-
cally. When the AC power supply is switched to the DC
power supply, the power turns off. When both power
supplies are connected, the AC power supply has
priority. Be sure to confirm which power supply is in use
when plugging or unplugging the power supply.
Energy saving
5
When not using the unit, turn the power off to avoid
unnecessary power consumption.
Use power voltage from DC 11 V to 15 V. Your unit may
not function properly otherwise.

Connecting a monitor
The on-screen display can be viewed on a monitor
connected to the [VIDEO MONITOR OUT] connector.
5 Digital outputs
Digital signals conforming to IEEE 1394 are output from the
[DV IN/OUT] connector.
Connection with a monitor TV
The audio output from the [AUDIO MONITOR OUT] connector
is monaural.
•
•
•
The phase of the output signal cannot be adjusted
for external sync signals. The sub carrier cannot be
locked.
Use the front panel [AUDIO MONITOR] switch or No. 211
<AUDIO MONITOR> menu switch to select the audio channels
you want to monitor. The selected audio channel is shown in
the table below. Adjust the audio volume level on the monitor.
Relationship between [AUDIO OUTPUT] / [AUDIO MONITOR]
switch and audio output channel
Plugging and unplugging the external sync or video
signal connector during operation causes distortion
in the picture and sound for about 10 seconds.
When signals input from the composite connector
are output from the component connector, color may
disappear in some parts of the left section of the
monitor screen. This is not a malfunction.
The set up is not applied to signals input to the
[DV IN/OUT] connector and output in EE mode
(component, Y/C, composite). Input signals are
recorded as is.
Use a video signal of less than 1 V(p-p) such as a
black burst signal for external sync signal.
When video signals are input to the DV IN/OUT
connector, distortion may occur in the lower section
of the picture in the EE mode. However, recording
is performed normally.
(During playback with 32 kHz sampling, audio dubbing, and
DV input with the 32 kHz sampling in the EE mode)
Regardless of setting of this switch, CH1/2 is selected for
ordinary recording, record pause and analog audio input in the
EE mode. CH3/4 is selected for audio dubbing in the Pause
mode.
Connecting video equipment
Connect the video device to the appropriate connector
(4 types are available).

4 MENU SWITCHES
3 CONNECTIONS
You can set menu switches using either the on-screen display or the counter display. To set switches on the on-screen display,
you will need to connect a monitor to the VCR’s [VIDEO MONITOR OUT] connector. This section explains how to set switches
using the on-screen display. The same procedures apply to switch setting on the counter display, the only difference being that
each menu switch item is indicated by numeric code rather than by name.

Control via the DV connector
• When the DV connector is used for control, assemble editing cannot be performed.
• When the VCR is stopped via the DV connector, a command error message may be returned to the controller. This is not
a malfunction.

Recording preparation
Loading a cassette
• Audio dubbing is not possible on tapes recorded with
48 kHz sampling frequency.
• If audio dubbing is performed repeatedly on a short
section of the tape, there may be some noise when
this section is played back.
• For audio dubbing, use a tape recorded with this unit.
If another tape is used, first dub it to a tape on this
unit. When audio is dubbed on a tape recorded on
another VCR (including another BR-DV600UA/EA),
sound and picture may be distorted.
• During audio dubbing, noise might be visible on the
playback picture. But it is not a trouble of
BR-DV600UA/EA. Audio dubbing itself is proceeded
normally.
Select the audio sampling rate with the No. 245 <SAMPLING
RATE> menu switch.
The number of usable audio channels is determined by the
sampling frequency selected with the No. 245 <SAMPLING
RATE> menu switch.
Signals can only be recorded on CH3 and CH4.
