Control Output
The CONTROL IN/OUT connectors are a proprietary bus used to control and synchronize
multiple TCR units.
The CONTROL OUT port is connected to CONTROL IN port of the next TCR in line.
Note Multi-machine operation is not available as of Fall 1999.
General Purpose Input/Output
The GPI/O connector provides six “general purpose” inputs for triggering selected TCR
functions.
The six GPI/O inputs can be assigned to specific TCR functions by using an assignment
menu. When a contact closure is received the selected function is activated.
Three outputs are provided to confirm input commands, and are often used to operate an
external “tally” LED. The outputs reflect commands received on GPI/O inputs 1, 2, and 3.
SCSI
The SCSI port (high density 68-pin ) is used to interconnect the TCR with external Wide-
SCSI-2 hard drives and certain removable drives.
P2 Remote
The TCR recorder provides a standard “9-pin” or “P2” remote control port to connect with an
external edit controller or serial remote control.
Digital Audio Outputs
The Digital Audio Outputs section provides four AES/EBU output pairs on the TCR 8, and two on
the TCR 4.
Digital Audio Inputs
The Digital Audio Inputs section provides four AES/EBU input pairs on the TCR 8, and two on the
TCR 4. Inputs 1-2 and 3-4 can be used for AES/EBU reference input.
Analog Audio Outputs
The Analog Audio Outputs section provides eight line level analog outputs on the TCR 8, and four on
the TCR 4.
Analog Audio Inputs
The Analog Audio Inputs section provides eight standard analog inputs on the TCR 8, and four on the
TCR 4.
Note In Appendix C, refer to the “Connector Pinouts” sections for details
and diagrams of all audio connectors.
