Time Code

During recording, a time code is recorded on the tape. This time code is used to confirm the position on the tape when playing back or editing a tape. To perform Random Assemble Editing ( pg. 58), time code is necessary.

Press – –:– – until the time code on the tape appears on the front display panel.

By pressing the – –:– – button, you can change the display to show the time code, channel position*, clock time.

*Channel position is not displayed during playback.

If “TIME CODE” is set to “ON” ( pg. 71), the time code

always appears on the TV screen while the DV deck is being selected. ( pg. 7)

NOTES:

The presence of a blank (unrecorded) portion in the middle of a tape can result in misoperation.

A “blank portion” of a tape is a section where nothing is recorded on the tape. If you start recording in a blank portion of a tape, the time codes will start from “0:00:00:00” again. If identical time codes are recorded in two different places on a tape, Random Assemble Editing and other similar functions might not operate properly.

In the following cases, you should play back the tape and confirm where a scene ends, and then begin recording from there:

When starting recording in the middle of a tape on which a recording has already been made.

When you finish recording on a tape, then played back that recording in order to check it, and now wish to continue recording.

When you lost power or the batteries died while you were recording with a camcorder.

Receiving Stereo and Bilingual Programmes

Your recorder is equipped with a Digital stereo sound decoder (NICAM) making reception of stereo and bilingual broadcasts possible.

When the channel is changed, the type of broadcast being received will be displayed on the TV screen for a few seconds.
