Chapter 4 Adjustments and settings for recording

<Notes>

O When the external lock operation is performed, the time code is instantly locked to the external time code, and the same value as the external code value appears on the counter display. Do not set the unit to the recording mode during the few seconds it takes for the sync generator to stabilize.

O The images may be disrupted during the instant when external locking is performed. This happens because the 5-frame period is adjusted, and it does not mean that the unit is malfunctioning.

Concerning the user bit setting during external lock

When the unit’s time code is externally locked, only the time data is locked to the time data of the time code supplied from the external source. This means that the user bits can be set separately for each component.

When the <TC/UB> screen is opened from the VTR menu page and EXT is selected as the UB MODE item setting by performing menu operations, the user bits can also be locked to the user bits of the time code supplied from the external source.

To release the external lock

First stop supplying the external time code, and set the TCG switch to R-RUN.

When switching the power from the battery to an external power supply while the time code is externally locked

In order to ensure the continuity of the time code generator’s power, connect the external power supply to the DC IN connector, and then remove the battery pack. If the battery pack is removed first, no guarantees can be made for the continuity of the external locking of the time code.

Gen-locking of the camera unit while the time code is externally locked

While the time code is externally locked, the camera unit is gen-locked by the reference video signal which is supplied to the GEN LOCK IN connector.

<Notes>

O When the signal from the unit’s HD SDI connector is to be used as the reference video signal, first set the OUTPUT SEL switch on the side panel to the CAM position.

O It takes time to synchronize GEN LOCK. Please do not record or do any other operations until synchronization is finished.

4-5-5 Setting the UMID information

This unit supports metadata UMIDs. As the UMID data, the user must first set the name of his or her country (with 3 or fewer characters), the name of the company or organization (with 4 or fewer characters), and the user name (with 4 or fewer characters). Input the name of the country based on the Country Codes (21) stipulated under the ISO 3166 standard.

Given here as an example is the procedure for inputting the user name.

21 Examples:

CHN for China, USA for United States, CAN for Canada, and JPN for Japan
