Notes on Installation on Cart Machine. When the digital Betacam recorder is to be mounted on the LMS, you can install not the control panel BKDW515 but the BKDW-514 to the recorder. When the digital Betacam recorder is to be mounted on the FLEXICART, you can install both of BKDW-514/ 515 to the recorder. As for how to mount the unit in a rack, refer to the Installation Manual supplied with the DVW series.

1-7. Full Reset of Control Panel
After installing the control panel in DVW-A500 and DVW-500 (DVW-A500P and DVW-500P for PAL), perform the full-reset operation of the control panel only once before it is used. m. When the full-reset operation of the control panel is performed, all settings of the current setup data and VTR bank (1-8) stored on the control panel are reset to the factory-setting value. The registration data in a PF1/2 menu is then reset to the key layout at the factory corresponding to the VTR in which the control panel was installed. Cue point data is also cleared. During installation of the control panel, the set value of the current setup data and VTR bank can also be delivered directly. In this case, do not perform the full-reset operation. However, if the function and option of the VTR in which the control panel was installed differ before and after installation, the key in a PF1/2 menu that does not function by the VTR after installation is deleted automatically. For the key in a PF1/2 menu that has been deleted because it does not function by the VTR before installation, assign it manually by the VTR after installation as required. 1. Turn off the power switch. 2. Turn on the power switch while pressing and holding the [SFT], [RCL], and [SETUP] keys on the control panel. Maintain the state in which these keys were pressed. 3. Release the three keys after confirming that message CONTROL PANEL FULL RESET is displayed on the EL panel.

1-8. Extension of Control Panel
To extend the BKDW-515, prepare the following BKDW510 (Control Panel Extension Kit), AC adapter and the connector box. Parts Required. 10m Extension Cable (BKDW-510). AC Adapter Sony Part No.: 1-473-822-11. Connector Box Sony Part No.: A-8277-618-A n The control panel BKDW-515 can not be installed to the control panel case BKDW-511 (sold separately). Connection. AC100V and AC200V acceptable for AC adapter. There is power switch on the connector box. 1. Connect the connector of the BKDW-515 to connector of the connector box. 2. Connect the connector of an AC adapter to connector CN3 of the connector box.

Notes when connecting the two BKDW-515. Setup Setting Data The Current Setup setting data inside of the BKDW-515 is transferred to the VTR just after the communication between the BKDW-515 and VTR are established. The ALARM LED on the front panel blinks during the data communication is incomplete. When the two BKDW-515 are connected to a single VTR, last setting data out of two is written over the former data as the effective setting data. If the two BKDW-515 with different data setting are connected to a single VTR, and if the power is turned to ON simultaneously, un-defined setting data will be sent to the VTR. Therefore, first, connect either BKDW-515 to a single VTR for storing the Current Setup setting data in bank memory of VTR or in the memory card beforehand. After that, connect the two BKDW-515 to a single VTR, turn on the power of both BKDW-515, then copy the memorized data into Current Setup. The Current Setup setting data among the two BKDW-515 and VTR will be automatically renewed to keep the contents of data identical. VTR Control Control of VTR is set by an INT/EXT selection of the System Setup Panel and ITEM 117 CONTROL PANEL SELECTION of the setup menu.
Notes when connection the BKDW-514 and BKDW-515 (Extender) When connecting the BKDW-514 and BKDW-515 (Extender) to VTR, be sure to turn on the power of BKDW-515 first. If the power of BKDW-515 is in off, start up a menu system (SETUP MENU BANK 1/2/3/4: BANK 4 is effective from SYS-V3.01 and later) of DVW500 series, therefore the contents set with BKDW-515 can not be used. If MENU lamps 1, 2, and 3 on the indicator section of VTRs upper control panel are off, the contents set with BKDW-515 can be used. Pay attention when pressing the MENU button without pressing the SET button after renewing the Setup setting data with BKDW-514, because renewed data will be validated if both BKDW-514 and BKDW-515 have been connected regardless of SET button. However, renewed data will be invalidated if the only BKDW-514 has been connected.
