$When AUTO REC is set to ON
Control flow when AUTO REC is set to ON
There are two recording mode settings: AUTO REC ON
where data is recorded automatically in accordance with the
variable frame rate camera, and AUTO REC OFF where
data is recorded manually.
When new data is recorded, it is always recorded under a
new clip name. The clip name is shown on the display
panel in the form of a date and time.
Example:
The name of the clip whose recording started on May 14
(2002) at 15 hr 01 min 30 sec appears as “05141501.”
If the remaining memory is reduced to under one minute
(equivalent to 60p) during recording when ON has been
selected as the ALARM setting on the setup menu, the
“DISK FULL” message is displayed, and the alarm sounds.
When there is no more free memory remaining, recording is
stopped.
<Note>
When the variable frame rate camera’s frame rate has been
switched from 23P to 24P or from 25P to 24P, the screen
may be subject to an instantaneous disturbance as an E-E
output. Bear this in mind when switching the frame rate dur-
ing recording if the unit’s output signals are recorded on an
external VTR.
