Default file name menu item
In the "Default file name" menu item in the SYS SETUP menu of the MENU mode, the "Add Machine ID" item has been newly added. Because the PD606 V1.10 supports ES bus, you can connect multiple PD606 units (or the PD606 with PD204 or DV824) in the ES bus system. When you start recording of multiple machines in the ES bus system, this item prevents creating an audio file with the same name on each unit. By setting this item to "On", a device ID is automatically added before the file extension of each file name. So even if you make recording of multiple units simultaneously, a unique file name is given to each audio file.
While the unit is stopped, press the [SHIFT] key followed by the [ENTER/YES] key to enter the MENU mode. Highlight "SYS SETUP" and press the [ENTER/YES] key to bring up the SYS SETUP menu screen. Highlight "Default file name" and press the [ENTER/YES] key to bring up the Default file name setting screen as shown below. You can see the newly added "Add Machine ID" item. (Note that, in the original owner's manual, the screen before the version upgrade is shown.)

ES master/slave control function
The ES master/slave control function allows making simultaneous recording/playback of all slave PD606 units from a master PD606. In order to make it possible, all ES master and slave units must receive the same word clock or video sync clock and lock to the sync signal (or all slave units must lock to the word clock from the master unit). If they are not locking to the same clock, the master and slave units may run out of sync. The PD606 guarantees that the deviation between master and slave units is within 1 ppm.
: In the ES-bus connection, one-master, one-slave configuration is ideal. However, you
can connect multiple (two or three) slave units without any malfunction.
Displays of the ES master and ES slave
ES master:
When the unit is assigned to the ES master and stopped, "-ES MASTER-" is shown in the file name display area on the Home screen. Note that, when the unit is in pause or record mode, the next file name (or the currently recorded file name) is shown.
ES slave:
When the unit is assigned to an ES slave and configured in the ES bus system, "-ES GRP SELECTED-" is shown in the file name display area on the Home screen.
Commands issued from the master unit to the slave unit(s)
PLAY key STOP key
"Instant Play" command All ES master and ES slave units start playback from the same address at the same timing. "Stop" and "Set Song Position" or "Instant Locate" commands In stop or pause mode: "Bus Select" and "Standby ON" commands The ES master issues the Bus select command and all slave units are bus-connected via the Sony P2 protocol and enter the pause mode. In any modes except in stop and pause modes: "Stop" and "Set Song Position" or "Instant Locate" commands
PAUSE key
ABS 0 LOCATE ABS END LOCATE
"Instant Locate" command "Instant Locate" command
6
REC key
"Set New File Name" and "Instant Rec" commands The ES master unit sends the same file name or the file name with each ES device ID to each ES slave units. "Set LTC Start Position" command Immediately after recording starts, the ES master unit sends the same LTC start position to all ES slave units.
CUE key LOCATE key
"Instant Locate" command (CUE search) The key operation is only effective during playback. "Instant Locate" command "False Start" command The ES slave units execute False start with the same false start mode as the ES master unit. "Load Song File" command (File Skip) "Instant Locate" command (CUE Skip) The key operation is only effective during playback. "Bus Select" and "Load Song File" commands The audio file in the ES master is selected, and before loading the file, all ES slave units are "Bus Select"ed and ES bus-connected via the Sony P2 protocol. Then the command for loading the same audio file name is issued to ES slave units and each unit loads the file. In this procedure, the "{Machine ID}" is converted to "**" (wild card) so a file with the same name but with a different ID is also loaded. If a file with the same file name does not exist in a slave unit, the ES-bus connection returns to the idle condition and the unit cannot receive commands from the ES master until it receives another Bus select command. "STOP" command When the ES master enters fast forward or rewind mode (including cue speed playback mode), ES slave units stop and wait. "Set Pre-Rec" command The ES master sends the set command for the pre-record mode to the ES slaves. If a slave is the PD606, only the pre-record time is set while on/off setting of the prerecord mode is ignored. To turn on or off the pre-record mode of a PD606 slave, press the [PRE REC] switch on the unit manually. "Set Pre-Rec" command The ES master sends the set command for the pre rec time which is set in the SYS SETUP menu of the MENU mode to all ES bus-connected slaves. "Set FS/BIT PULL UP/DOWN" commands The ES master sends the set command for the pre rec time which is set in the SYS SETUP menu of the MENU mode to all ES bus-connected slaves, allowing making the same setting to all units. "Rename File Name" command After editing a file name using the "File name edit" item in the DISK UTILITY menu, the result is reflected to the current file name of all ES slave units. Note that however, the "{Machine ID}" part is converted to "(##)" when sending the command. When an ES slave unit receives the command, it replaces "(##)" with its Machine ID.

Applications
1. Simultaneous recording
When the master unit enters record mode, it issues the record command to all the ES slave units. In this case, the following rules are applied.
1-1.
The ES bus connection between the master and slaves is established by pressing the [PAUSE] key of the master unit. All the ES slave units accomplish Group bus select. With the ESC command, one way communication via the Sony P2 protocol is established. All the slave units have the same file name as the master unit. Note that however, if the "Add Machine ID" item of the "Default file name" screen is set to "On" on the master unit, each file name has a unique device ID before the file extension, preventing creating files with the same name. All the slave units have the same time stamps as the master unit. The time stamps are stored in the BEXT Chunk time reference (LTC time). Therefore, all units have the same time reference. The time accuracy is less than 100µ sec (which is caused by transmission process delay). The master unit sends all commands by "Broadcast" and does not monitor the status information of slave machines.
1-2.
1-3.
1-4.
Recording procedure: The master sends the record command.
Immediately after the [PAUSE] key on the master unit is pressed, all slave units are "Bus Select"ed. The master is ES bus-connected to all slave units.
Immediately after the [RECORD] key on the master unit is pressed, the "Set New File Name" command is issued. This command creates the same file on the master and slave units, and sets all the units in record pause mode.
The "Instant Rec" command is issued and all the units start recording at the same timing.
The "Set LTC Start Time" command is issued so that all the units have the same time reference.
When the [STOP] key on the master unit is pressed, the "Record Stop" command is issued and all the units stop recording.

2.
Simultaneous playback (normal song playback)
Before executing simultaneous playback, the following preparation has to be made. · All the master and slave units are powered on. · On the slave units, the song you attempt to play back is stored in the current partition. 2-1. When the song is selected by the file select function on the master unit, the "Group Select" command is issued and the bus connection between the master and slave units is made. The master can now control the slaves via the one-way Sony P2 protocol. Then the "Load Song File" command is issued for loading the same file as the master on each slave unit. If a slave does not have the appropriate file, the slave cancels the bus connection. The "{Machine ID}" part in the file name is converted to "**" (wild card) when transmitted. When the master locates to the desired playback position, it issues the Instant Locate command to the slave units. The master unit secures ample time for locating. The slave units accomplish locating to be ready for accepting the "Instant Play" command issued by the master. When the [PLAY] key of the master unit is pressed, the master unit issues the "Instant Play" command, which makes all the master and slave units start playback simultaneously. When the [STOP] key is pressed, the master unit issues the "Stop" command, which stops all the master and slave units. The master unit issues the "Song position" command to the slave units in order to stop at the precise position. In order to ensure precise lock among all units, steps 2-2 and 2-3 above are repeated automatically.
When the master executes the "File Select" function, the slave units are bus-connected.
2-2.
2-3.
2-4.
2-5.
2-6.
The "Load Song" command is issued. If a slave does not have the appropriate file, the slave is disconnected from the bus connection.
The "Instant Locate" command is issued.
The "Instant Play" command is issued and all the master and slave units start playback.
The "Stop" command is issued and all units stop playback.
The "Song position" command is issued.
9
3.
Editing a file name
When the master and slave units are ES bus-connected and each unit have a file for the same project, editing the file name of a file on the master unit reflects the related file on the slave units. This is accomplished by sending the "Rename File Name" command to the slave units. If you add "(##)" to the file name, the device ID is automatically added to the file name of each master or slave unit. (The ES bus connection must be established beforehand.)
The Rename File Name" command is issued.
4.
False Start
During multi-unit recording process using ES-bus connection, when the master unit executes False start, the "False Start" command for the same false start mode is sent to the slave units.
Interpolation of the internal TC generator
In the Free Run mode, the internal TC generator runs precisely regardless of whether the unit is powered on or off. With the older software version, however, if the battery is removed and no connection is made to the [DC IN] connector, the internal TC generator completely stops. Therefore, if you connect a power source and turn on the unit after such a condition, the TC generator in the Free Run mode restarts from "00h 00m 00s 00f", which causes time discontinuity. To solve this problem, with version 1.10, the internal TC generator can be interpolated by the internal realtime clock. That is, if the internal TC generator stops by the reason described above, the internal realtime clock automatically interpolates the TC generator with realtime clock accuracy. When you connect a power source and turn on the unit later, the TC will start from the appropriate time without time discontinuity.
: When PD606 is powered off with no power (AC adaptor, battery) being supplied, the Free Run TC is interpolated by the internal RTC. If any power is supplied, the internal TC generator continues to generate the Free Run TC. Since there is a difference in clock accuracy between the internal TC generator and the internal RTC, the restart TC address after powering on may be slightly different in two situations.
Post recording cancel function
In Pre rec mode, after you quit recording, the unit automatically executes "Post recording" and then stops. During "Post recording" with the old software version, the popup screen is shown on the display and all keys are disabled. With the new software version (V1.10), only the [REC] key is enabled. Pressing the [REC] key cancels Post recording and returns to normal recording mode. If you press the [REC] key while the display shows the popup screen for Post recording, pressing the [REC] key continues recording to the same file. This function can be done in the ES bus system using multiple units. (Note that, however, the DV824 does not support this function, while the PD606 and PD204 support it.)
: Post recording is performed for the time period set by the "Pre rec time" item in the
"SYS SETUP" menu of the MENU mode (the default is 10 seconds). Note that if you set "Pre rec time" to small amount (such as two or three seconds), you have to be in a hurry to press the [REC] key. Otherwise you cannot cancel Post recording.
