500	VITC BLANK			For setting whether to output the VITC signal at the position which is set using
				menu items No.501 [VITC POS-1] and No.502 [VITC POS-2].
		0000	BLANK	0: The VITC signal is not output.
		0001	THRU	1: The VITC signal is output.
				<Note>
				This setting takes effect only with the SD output (VIDEO output and SD SDI
				output).
501	VITC POS-1	0000	10L	For setting the position where the VITC signal is to be inserted.
		:	:	<Notes>
		0006	16L	O The same line as the one selected by menu item No.502 [VITC POS-2] cannot
		:	:	be selected.
		0010	20L	O If 50i/25P is selected as the menu item No.25 [SYSTEM FREQ] setting, the
				setting range is lines 7L to 11L to 22L.
				O This setting takes effect only with the SD output (VIDEO output and SD SDI
				output).
502	VITC POS-2	0000	10L	For setting the position where the VITC signal is to be inserted.
		:	:	<Notes>
		0008	18L	O The same line as the one selected by menu item No.501 [VITC POS-1] cannot
		:	:	be selected.
		0010	20L	O If 50i/25P is selected as the menu item No.25 [SYSTEM FREQ] setting, the
				setting range is lines 7L to 13L to 22L.
				O This setting takes effect only with the SD output (VIDEO output and SD SDI
				output).
503	TCG MODE			For setting the synchronization of the internal time code generator.
		0000	REGEN	0: The time code which is read from the tape by the time code reader is used.
		0001	PRE	1: The mode can be preset using the controls on the operation panel or the remote
				controller.
		0002	AUTO	2: REGEN or PRE is automatically selected depending on the operation mode.
				Follow-on recording mode: REGEN is selected.
				All other modes: PRE is selected.
504	RUN MODE			For setting the operation mode in which the internal time code generator runs.
		0000	REC	0: The generator runs only while recording is in progress.
		0001	FREE	1: The generator runs while the power is on regardless of the unit’s operation
				mode.
505	TCG REGEN			For setting the signal to be regenerated when the TCG (time code generator) is in
				the regeneration mode.
		0000	TC&UB	0: Both the time code and user’s bit are regenerated.
		0001	TC	1: Only the time code is regenerated.
		0002	UB	2: Only the user’s bit is regenerated.
507	TC SOURCE			For selecting the time code to be used when an external time code is used.
		0000	INT	0: The internal time code generator is used.
		0001	EXT L	1: The LTC information of the TIME CODE IN connector is used.
		0002	SLTC	2: The LTC information added to the serial signals which are supplied to the HD
				SDI IN connector is used.
		0003	SVITC	3: The VITC information added to the serial signals which are supplied to the HD
				SDI IN connector is used.
				<Notes>
				O When a setting other than INT has been selected for this menu item, the user’s
				bit of the LTC and VITC which is output during recording may be output with a
				delay of 1 frame from the time code.
				O When “1394” is selected as the menu item No.600 [VIDEO IN SEL] setting and
				a setting other than INT is selected for TC SOURCE, the time code which is
				input to the DV connector is used.
				At this time, the VITC information will not be superimposed onto the video signal
				output when recording is performed or the E-E mode is established. The LTC
				information and VITC information are not superimposed onto the HD serial
				output signals.

“” indicates the factory setting.
