9. TIME CODE OPERATION

The GY-DV550 records SMPTE-standard (U MODEL)/EBU-standard (E MODEL) time codes and user's bits. In the play or record mode, the reproduced time codes or user's bits are shown on the counter display. The LTC signal from the built-in time code generator is output through the TC OUT connector. In the play mode, the time code recorded on the tape is not output through the units connectors.

Do not directly turn off the POWER switch in the record-pause mode; otherwise, time codes will not continue. Be absolutely sure to turn off the OPERATE switch beforehand.

Setting the time code related switches

Set the TC GENE switch to REC or FREE.

REC : The data preset in the time code generator runs only during recording.

Use this setting if it is required to record continual time codes across different scenes.

*However, approximately ±1-frame variations may occur in scene transition accuracy.

FREE : The time code starts to run from the time it is preset in the time code generator.

Setting the VCR Setup Menu (U MODEL)

Set the VCR Setup Menu item No. 516 DISPLAY SELECT to “TC”.

Select the time code generator's framing mode using the VCR

Setup Menu item No. 416 NON DROP/DROP.

DROP

: The time code generator's running method is set

 

to the drop frame mode.

 

Use this setting when placing emphasis on the

 

recording time.

Drop frame/Non-drop frame mode (U MODEL)

 

In the NTSC system, the actual number of frames per 1

second is approximately 29.97 frames, but the number of

frames that becomes the processing reference of the time

code is 30 frames. To compensate for this difference, the

mode called drop mode drops frame 00 and 01 for every

minute that cannot be divided by 10.

 

 

The non-drop frame mode is when no frames are dropped

and the actual time shift is neglected.

 

 

Note:

 

 

 

When the VCR Setup Menu item No. 398 SSF MODE is set

to CUE MODE or MARK MODE, the time code generator’s

running method is internally set to the REGEN mode.

When this is the case and you want to enter the preset

mode, set the VCR Setup Menu item No. 398 SSF MODE

to “OFF”, or set the TC GENE switch to the REC or FREE

position again.
