TwinPact 100 is provided with three basic operation modes.

1. DV IN mode : Mode for DV-to-analog conversion

2. ANALOG IN mode : Mode for analog-to-DV conversion

3. RGB IN mode :

Scan Converter mode (Screen Capture mode)

You can switch these three modes by pressing the [INPUT SELECT]

switch according to your purpose. (The [Input] key on the remote con-

troller provides you with the same functionality.)

You can check the currently active mode by one of the three blue LEDs

located on the front of the unit.

Description of operations done in each mode

1. DV IN mode : Mode for DV-to-analog conversion

This mode is used for converting DV signal to analog signal.

In this mode, the TwinPact 100 converts DV signal coming from

either of the 4-pin DV connector on the front of the unit or the 6-pin

DV connector on the back into analog signal, and then outputs it via

the analog output connector ((2), (3) or (4) on P.7) located on the

back of the unit.

This mode is used for converting DV signal coming from a DV

camera or the like into analog signal or DV signal coming from a

computer via its IEEE1394 connecter to display the DV signal on a

TV monitor.

2. ANALOG IN mode : Mode for analog-to-DV conversion

This mode is used for converting analog signal coming from an

external source into DV signal.

In this mode, the TwinPact 100 converts analog signal coming from

the analog input connector ((7), (8) or (9) on P.6) on the front of the

unit into DV signal and then output it via the 4-pin DV connector on

the front of the unit and the 6-pin DV connector on the back.

You can capture a video from an SVHS or 8-mm camera, convert-

ing analog video signal to DV signal, and bring it into a DV device

such as DV camera or into a hard disk of a computer via computer's

IEEE1394 connector using some software on the computer.
