SBC (sub code data) area:

This area is separate from the video and audio data area on the helical track. The time code complying with SMPTE/EBU standards is stored here. As with the conventional LTC (linear time code), the time code can be read even during rewinding or fast forwarding. It can also be read out when the tape has stopped.

VAUX (video auxiliary data) area:

This area is to be found in the video data area on the helical track.

The additional information relating to the video data is stored here.

Note:

The time code and user bit are controlled during tape playback by the data which has been recorded in the SBC area. This means that all the data recorded in the SBC area alone is used as the data which is to be indicated on the counter display section in the middle of the front panel or in the superimposed display, or as the data which is to be transmitted to the editing controller or other unit.
