<How to switch the system frequency>

Follow the steps below to switch the system frequency [59/60 Hz, 50 Hz, 23/24 Hz, 25 Hz (HD) or 25 Hz (SD), 50 Hz(HD), 50 Hz(SD)].

1 Following the procedure for the <SETUP MENU/ SYSTEM MENU> (page 62) to change the system menu item No.25 (SYSTEM FREQ) setting.

2 Press F5 (SET) to enter the setting, and after the function menu shown on the time code display area has been cleared, the following message appears.

SHIFT F1 F2 F3 F4 F5 F6

3 To make the setting entered in step 2 valid, press the F button while holding down the ENT button.

The system is restarted, and the VTR starts operating in the selected mode.

4 To cancel the setting entered in step 2, press the C button while holding down the F button.

The above message is cleared, and after the changed setting has been restored to the original system menu No.25 (SYSTEM FREQ) setting, operation returns to the SYSTEM menu operation screen.

<Note>

If the system menu No.25 (SYSTEM FREQ) setting has been changed while a cassette is inserted in the VTR, the cassette is automatically ejected.

The same procedure as above is also followed when the system menu No.25 (SYSTEM FREQ) setting has been changed by loading the data from an SD memory card in accordance with the <CARD> procedure (page 71).

Note that even if the change being made to the system menu item No. 25 setting is cancelled, other system menu items affected by the change will be updated, as will the associated file names.
