505*1	For selecting the regeneration signal when
	REGEN has been selected as the TCG (time
TCG REGEN	code generator) mode.
	0000	TC&UB
	Regeneration applies to both the time code and
	user bits.
	0001	TC
	Regeneration applies only to the time code only.
	0002	UB
	Regeneration applies only to the user bits only
506*1	For selecting the editing mode range when the
	VTR is operating in the REGEN mode while
REGEN MODE	performing editing operations with “AUTO”
	selected as the setup menu item No.503 (TCG
	MODE) setting.

	Regeneration applies during assemble or insert
	editing.
	0001	ASSEM
	Regeneration applies during assemble editing.
	0002	INSRT
	Regeneration applies during insert editing
507*1	For selecting the time code to be used when
	HDSDI or SDSDI has been selected as the setup
TC SOURCE	menu item No.600 (VIDEO IN SEL) setting when
	an external time code is to be used.
	[When HDSDI has been selected]
	0000	INT
	The time code of the internal time code genera-
	tor is used.
	0001	EXT_L
	LTC of the TIME CODE IN connector is used.
	0002	SLTC
	The LTC information added to the serial signals
	which are input to HD SDI IN is used.
	0003	SVITC
	The VITC information added to the serial signals
	which are input to HD SDI IN is used.
	[When SDSDI has been selected]
	0000	INT
	The time code of the internal time code genera-
	tor is used.
	0001	EXT_L
	LTC of the TIME CODE IN connector is used.
	0002	VITC
	The VITC information added to the serial signals
	which are input to SD SDI IN is used.
	<Notes>
	z If the VIDEO IN SEL input selection is changed,
	the time code is converted as shown below.
	[HDSDI] <>		[SDSDI]
	INT	<>	INT
	EXT_L	<>	EXT_L
	SLTC	<>	EXT_L
	SVITC	<>	VITC

zWhen [1394] is selected in Setup Menu No. 600 (VIDEO IN SEL), the time code input for the IEEE 1394 digital input/output connector is used. However, the VITC information is not superimposed on the video signal during EE mode and when recording. Furthermore, LTC information and VITC information are not superimposed on the HD serial output.

The underlining (__) denotes the factory setting mode.
