JVC BR-D95U HOW to USE Time Code, Time Code Display, Time Code Initial Setting Preset

10 HOW TO USE TIME CODE

Time codes and user bits can be recorded and played back as time data. The time code area on the tape is divided into the main time code sector used for time data for editing and the sub time code sector which can be used for optional recording of time code.

10 HOW TO USE TIME CODE

10-2 TIME CODE INITIAL SETTING (PRESET)

The BR-D95U includes a built-in time code generator so that initial values can be set as desired for the time code and user bits. User bit data is stored in the built-in nonvolatile memory and retained even when the power is turned off. The stored data can be preferentially recorded on the tape for editing (UB auto preset function).

Notes

● On-screen display data are

output through the rear

panel [LINE2-SUPER]

connector.

(When the [ON SCREEN]

switch on the sub panel is

set to ON.)

● The on-screen display

position can be moved with

menu switches No. 501

and 502.

To display selected time data on the counter display and the on-screen display

during playback or recording.

● Drop Frame/Non-Drop

Frame mode (NTSC only)

In the NTSC system, the

actual number of frames

per second is approxi-

mately 29.97. However,

the number of frames used

by the time code process-

ing standard is 30. To

compensate for this

difference, the Drop Frame

mode drops the 00 frame

and the 01 frame once

Set the COUNTER switch to TC or UB.

•Set the counter to the Time Code Display mode with the [COUNTER] button.

•Press the [COUNTER] button while pressing the [SHIFT] button to set the counter to the User Bits Display mode.

“TC” or “UB” is shown on the display depending on the setting.

Setting

Front sub panel switches for time code setting

●Set the [PRESET/REGEN] switch to “PRESET”.

●Set the [REC/FREE] switch as desired.

REC: Time code preset in the time code generator runs in the Record mode.

FREE: Time code runs from the preset point in the time code generator.

●Set the [INT/EXT] switch to “INT”.

●Set the [DF/NDF] switch as desired. (NTSC only):

DROP (0)	: Sets the Running mode of the built-in time code generator to
NON DROP (1)	the Drop Frame mode.
	: Sets the Running mode of the built-in time code generator to
	the NON Drop Frame mode.

User bits are provided to allow user-specified data to be included in the time code data. User bits are recorded and played back with the time code. User user bits can be preset, recorded, played back, and displayed. • The user bits set for each VCR can be recorded at all times (UB PRESET AUTO).

●Menu switch No. 457 <UB PRESET AUTO> setting

When user bit data is preset from the 9-pin remote controller, set this to “OFF”. When this is set to “ON”, user bit preset data from the 9-pin remote controller is ignored.

•However, you cannot set sub time code user bits.

Sub time code data display

Sub time code, marked with “SUB”, is displayed with the main time code on the on-screen display.

●Sub time code is shown when:

•Sub time code is output through the VITC output (with menu switch No. 504 <INFORMATION SELECT> set to “TIME+SUB TC (3)” or “TIME+SUB TC+MODE (4)”).
