CAUTION:

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR SHOCK

HAZARD AND ANNOYING INTERFERENCE,

USE THE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES

ONLY.

FCC Note:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply

with the limits for a class A digital device, pursuant to

Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to

provide reasonable protection against harmful

interference when the equipment is operated in a

commercial environment. This equipment generates,

uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not

installed and used in accordance with the instruction

manual, may cause harmful interference to radio

communications. Operation of this equipment in a

residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in

which case the user will be required to correct the

interference at his own expense.

Warning:

To assure continued FCC emission limit compliance, the

user must use only shielded interface cables when

connecting to external units. Also, any unauthorized

changes or modifications to this equipment could void

the user’s authority to operate it.

CAUTION:

In order to maintain adequate ventilation, do not

install or place this unit in a bookcase, built-in

cabinet or any other confined space. To prevent risk

of electric shock or fire hazard due to overheating,

ensure that curtains and any other materials do not

obstruct the ventilation.

CAUTION:

KEEP THE TEMPERATURE INSIDE THE RACK

BETWEEN 41°F to 104°F (5°C to 40°C).

zBOLT THE RACK SECURELY TO THE FLOOR

SO THAT IT WILL NOT TOPPLE OVER WHEN

THE UNIT IS DRAWN OUT.

CAUTION:

The mains plug of the power supply cord shall

remain readily operable.

The AC receptacle (mains socket outlet) shall be

installed near the equipment and shall be easily

accessible. To completely disconnect this

equipment from the AC mains, disconnect the mains

plug from the AC receptacle.

CAUTION:

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR SHOCK

HAZARD, REFER CHANGES OF SWITCH

SETTINGS INSIDE THE UNIT TO QUALIFIED

SERVICE PERSONNEL.

_DO NOT REMOVE PANEL COVERS BY

UNSCREWING THEM.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove

the covers. No user serviceable parts inside.

Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

_THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE GROUNDED

To ensure safe operation, the three-pin plug must be

inserted only into a standard three-pin power outlet

which is effectively grounded through normal

household wiring. Extension cords used with the

equipment must have three cores and be correctly

wired to provide connection to the ground. Wrongly

wired extension cords are a major cause of fatalities.

The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily

does not imply that the power outlet is grounded or

that the installation is completely safe.

For your safety, if you are in any doubt about the

effective grounding of the power outlet, please

consult a qualified electrician.

WARNING:

zTO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR SHOCK

HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS

EQUIPMENT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

zTO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR SHOCK

HAZARD, KEEP THIS EQUIPMENT AWAY

FROM ALL LIQUIDS. USE AND STORE ONLY

IN LOCATIONS WHICH ARE NOT EXPOSED

TO THE RISK OF DRIPPING OR SPLASHING

LIQUIDS, AND DO NOT PLACE ANY LIQUID

CONTAINERS ON TOP OF THE EQUIPMENT.

Operating Precautions

_Power supply

Use an AC 120 V (U.S.A. and Canada) power supply.

zBe sure to take hold of the power plug when connecting and

disconnecting the power cable.

zDo not run the power cable near a heating source.

zDo not place heavy objects on top of the power cable.

zDo not tamper with the power cable in any way.

_No insertion of foreign matters

Do not insert or drop metal or any foreign objects into the unit’s

openings (such as the fan vents).

Foreign objects inside the unit can cause a fire or short circuits.

Contact the dealer for assistance.

_No disassembly

High voltage is supplied to some parts inside the unit, and

touching these parts is not only dangerous but may cause a

malfunction.

Leave all internal insections and adjustments to the dealer from

whom you purchased the unit.

_DANGER: No operation if unit is

malfunctioning

If smoke comes out or strange sounds or smells are detected

from the unit, ask the dealer from whom you purchased the unit

for repairs.

Overview/Features

1. Overviews

This new 2K Processor (AJ-HDP2000) for the HD-D5 VTRs (AJ-HD3700H*1, AJ-HD3700A*1, AJ-HD3700B*2)

is designed for post-production and telecine systems, and this new technology provides a cost-effective and

efficient method of recording, editing and archiving full-size 2K and 4:4:4 HDTV images on the film post-

production standard D-5 mastering video tape recording system.

The 2K Processor allow professionals to record full 12-bit 4:4:4 “2K” 2048

1080 resolution film image data, or

12-bit 4:4:4 sampled 1920

1080 HD images onto Panasonic’s AJ-HD3700H, AJ-HD3700A or AJ-HD3700B

HD-D5

VTRs for editing, archiving, and distribution, a process that formerly was not easily achievable.

*1The software must be upgraded. For details, contact the dealer where you purchased the product.

*2The software for some VTRs must be upgraded. For details, contact the dealer where you purchased the

product.

2. Features

2.1. Compression

The 2K Processor uses JPEG2000 compression,

the similar compression scheme specified by the

Digital Cinema Initiative (DCI) for cinema release,

to convert film to digital data for subsequent

processing in advanced DI environments while

maintaining its resolution. The processor's

advanced encoder ensures that images remain

faithful throughout the recording process, and

minimizes distortion and resolution degradation

and offers optimized bit rate control and increased

error tolerance for the reliable interchange required

for editing.

2.2. VTRs Migration

The numerous Post facilities with capital

investments in D-5 will be able to use their current

AJ-HD3700 series, and the workflow that has

worked so well for them with existing HD-D5 VTRs

can be continued with a simple software upgrade

for 2K and HD post-production.

2.3. Dual-Link SDI & I/O

For ease of monitoring and interfacing with more

traditional high definition equipment, The 2K

Processor has added a 4:4:4 to 4:2:2 conversion

capability. The full audio capability of the D-5

format is maintained, including eight-channel 24-bit

recordings, as well as the ability of the system to

handle compression audio streams for multi-

channel / second language applications. Audio I/O

is by means of embedded HD-SDI or HD-D5 VTR’s

AES/EBU inputs, analog inputs. Interconnection

from the processor to the HD-D5 VTR is by

mapped compressed data over the HD-D5 VTR’s

existing HD-SDI input / outputs. The processor

accepts dual link SMPTE 372M video / 2K inputs.

Time Code in/out is embedded or HD-D5 VTR’s

XLR.

2.4. Maximum Record Time

Maximum recording time is 155 minutes, the same

as the HD-D5 VTR’s 24fps modes.

2.5. Indicator Display

Alarm indicator (RED):

When flashing, indicates that some errors

have occurred.

When lit constantly, indicates a serious

problem such as the fan has stopped or the

rear service switch is ON.

2048/1920 indicator (GREEN):

Indicates the Horizontal sample number of

System settings.

2.6. Compact and Lightweight

With a height of 2U and weight of 7.5 kg (16.5 lb),

this compact and lightweight unit can be

transported easily.
