Superior Digital Quality and Versatile Editing
DVCPRO50/DVCPRO Switchable Recording
The AJ-SD955B and AJ-SD930B record and play back in
both DVCPRO50 and DVCPRO formats. In DVCPRO50
mode, each model can record up to 92 minutes on an AJ-
5P92LP compact 1/4" cassette tape. In DVCPRO mode,
recording time is doubled to 184 minutes.*
In playback, the AJ-SD955B and AJ-SD930B automatically
detect the recording format used and play the tape back
accordingly.
*When recording in DVCPRO50 mode on a DVCPRO tape, the recording time will be
half the amount indicated on the cassette.

Complete Editing Functions -- AJ-SD955B
UMID Data Recording and Playback
The AJ-SD955B features an edit control panel and provides
functions such as assemble editing, insert editing, preview,
review, and trim. Single-event editing and audio split are
also possible, using the RS-422A control interface and a
standard editing controller.
The AJ-SD955B and AJ-SD930B record and play data that
conform to the UMID standard and contain a variety of
supplementary information. This allows it to read GPS data
(latitude, longitude and altitude) recorded by the
AJ-SDX900 Camera-Recorder. The AJ-SD955B and
AJ-SD930B can also handle VANC data for broadcast such
as Teletext.
625/525 Selectable — AJ-SD955B
*UMID (Unique Material Identifier): These identifiers for the AV material identifiers
have been defined in the SMPTE 330M international standard.
The 625/525 selectable function in the AJ-SD955B lets you
play and use NTSC footage in program production. Use the
standard-equipped SDI or optional AJ-YA931G 525
analogue input board for 525 input, and the
Easy Set-Up with On-Screen Display
On-screen display makes it easy to change a number of
initial settings. The display combines a simple,
straight-forward control panel with a host of functions.
This on-screen display is now available on one of the SDI
outputs in addition to the composite monitor output, thus
eliminating the need for analogue inputs on the Video
Monitor.
standard-equipped SDI and analogue out for output.
New Illuminated Jog & Shuttle Dial
The ring of the newly designed Jog & Shuttle dial lights up
in search mode. This, plus the large LCD metering window,
gives you easy, precise operation. In shuttle mode you can
search in colour at ±32 times normal speed. Slow-motion
playback is provided at –0.43 to +0.43, +0.5, +0.75 times
normal speed in DVCPRO50 and DVCPRO. Digital audio
monitoring is possible in jog mode.
AJ-SD930B: Simple Operation Panel
The AJ-SD930B has virtually the same performance,
interface, and features as the AJ-SD955B, but without the
edit control panel and 525 switchable function.
This makes the cost-effective AJ-SD930B ideal at the heart
of a low-cost system for dubbing or on-air transmission, or
as a player in an editing system.

Standard Digital Interfaces for Easy Expandability
Standard SDI and AES/EBU In/Out
RS-422A, RS-232C, and Encoder Remote
The AJ-SD955B and AJ-SD930B come standard with SDI
(Serial Digital Interface), allowing input/output of digital
component signals. They also come standard with
AES/EBU digital audio in/out (4 channels). This versatility
makes them ideal for post-production applications in an
ordinary D1 environment.
• RS-422A (9-pin): For interfacing with a system that
includes an editing controller.
• RS-232C (25-pin):For PC applications.
• Encoder (15-pin): For remote adjustment of
the video signal.
• Parallel (25-pin): For general-purpose remote control.
• World-wide Voltage support (AC100 to 240V ±10%,
50 to 60Hz).
SDTI or IEEE 1394* Interface
An option slot allows system expansion. Connecting an
AJ-YAC930G SDTI (Serial Data Transport Interface) board
lets you transfer compressed data, with no degradation,
with a DVCPRO50/DVCPRO VTR for broadcast use.
Or, connecting an AJ-YAD955G IEEE 1394 Digital Interface
Board gives you degradation-free transfer of compressed
data , which delivers a full 4:2:2 compressed signal for use
in PC and Macintosh based editing systems.

come standard with four channels of analogue audio
input/output. Analogue video input is available by adding
the optional AJ-YA931G (525) or AJ-YA932G (625)
boards. This efficient design provides all the versatility
needed in today's video production environment.
*Adding the AJ-YA931G 525 analogue input board
