Partial transfer is available, where In and Out points are set to XDCAM files on the server and only required parts are transferred to the

hard disk. A message will appear if no connection has been made to the directory where the high-resolution data is saved when partial

Downloading XDCAM Sources and Simultaneously Placing Them on the Timeline

Data transfer to the hard disk on the PC is started at the same time that XDCAM clips on the FTP server or clips on XDCAM devices are

placed directly on the timeline without being registered to the bin. The data (proxy/high-resolution) transferred at this time can be checked

and changed by [Importer/Exporter] in [System Settings] → [XDCAM] → [Download] in [Browser].
“XDCAM Browser Settings” (w page 88)
