1-1 Features The SRW-5000/SRW-5500 is a high-definition digital video cassette recorder using the HDCAM-SR format. It is a small and light unit incorporating LSIs for signal processing and is comparable to the HDCAM1) model HDW-F500 in size, weight and functionality. The SRW-5500 only is a recorder supporting both the HDCAM-SR and HDCAM formats.
1-1 Features Chapter 1 Overview HDCAM Format 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. 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.
Compact, lightweight, low power consumption The VTR is small and light enough to be used in outside broadcast vans or in EFP (Electronic Field Production) assignments. Remote control operation The VTR has a serial RS-422A 9-pin connector to allow control of the VTR by an external control unit.
1-1 Features Chapter 1 Overview • Use the scrollable VTR SETUP menu to display the items necessary for making initial settings, and to directly change settings without registering them with the function buttons for each menu. • Use the PANEL SETUP menu to set control panel operations, such as the keyboard sound output. MAINTENANCE menu Use this menu to access the maintenance functions. For details, refer to the Maintenance Manual Volume 1.
1-2 Optional Accessories HKSR-5001 Format Converter Board This allows format conversion described below: • 2-3 pulldown (23.98PsF to 59.94i, 24PsF to 60i) • Conversion between 1080 and 720P • 4:2:2 between 4:4:4 (Conversion of 4:4:4 to 4:2:2 is possible only when the HKSR-5003 is additionally installed.) Installation Manual (supplied) Provides necessary information to install and operate the VTR. For information about changing the video system, refer to “1-11.

Glossary AES/EBU format 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. 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.
Glossary 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.
