SBC (sub code data) area:

This is an area on the helical track, and it is separate from the video and audio data area. The time codes, recording dates and times and other tape control information complying with SMPTE/EBU standards are stored here. As with the conventional LTC (linear time code), the time code can be read even during rewinding or fast forwarding. It can also be read out when the tape has stopped.

VAUX (video auxiliary data) area:

This area is to be found in the video data area on the helical track.

The additional information relating to the video data is stored here.

*1: This item is not displayed when the 23/24 Hz or 25 Hz (HD or SD) mode has been selected as the system menu item No.25 (SYSTEM FREQ) setting.

*2: This item is not displayed when the 23/24 Hz, 25 Hz (HD or SD) or 50 Hz mode has been selected as the system menu item No.25 (SYSTEM

516*

For

selecting

the

processing

to align

the

phase of the time code which is output from

TC OUT ADV

the TIME CODE OUT connector.

Normally, the time code which is output from the

TIME CODE OUT connector is aligned with the

output video and audio. If so required by the

connection with an external component or for

some other reason, this item makes it possible to

set

the

mode

for aligning the

phase

with

the

input.

0000

OFF

:

The phase alignment processing is not

conducted. The time code which is output

from

the TIME CODE OUT connector is

aligned with the output video and audio.

0001

EDIT

:

During playback when an editing mode has

been

selected and during editing, the time

code which is output from the TIME CODE

OUT connector is aligned with the input video

and audio. In all other modes, it is aligned with

the output video and audio

.

selecting

whether

to

latch

the TCG
