Solved! You were right… I thought INT SG was the proper setting because HD SDI lit up when I had it on, and the only other options were DIG and ANA. I didn’t know about the DIN setting on the audio menu (DIN 12, DIN 34, etc). The DIN was set to the factory preset of AES. At this point, audio channels 1-8 didn’t give me the HD SDI option. When I changed the DIN input to SDI, then I was able to see the HD SDI option on channels 1-8 the HD1700 VTR. I then changed those setting to HD SDI and I was good.
Thank you for your time and help!
