DF

 

 

The drop frame mode is selected.

 

0001

NDF

 

 

The non-drop frame mode is selected.

 

<Note>

 

 

 

This DF mode setting takes effect only when

 

LOCAL is selected or when “ENA” has been

 

selected as the setup menu item No.001 (LOCAL

 

ENA) setting.

 

 

 

512*1

For switching the phase of the time code, which

 

is output from the TIME CODE OUT connector,

TC OUT REF

in response to the external LTC input when a

setting other than “INT” has been selected for

 

 

setup menu item No.507 (TC SOURCE). (In EE

 

mode only)

 

 

0000

VOUT

 

 

The phase is aligned with the output image.

 

0001

TC IN

 

 

The phase is aligned with the external time code

 

input.

 

 

 

 

 

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.

For selecting how to output the VITC which is

 

superimposed on the output video signal.

VITC OUT

0000

SBC

 

In the playback mode, the time code recorded in

 

the SBC area is output.

 

0001

VAUX

 

In the playback mode, the time code recorded in

 

the VAUX area is output.

 

<Note>

 

z The VITC information detected by the HD serial

 

input is automatically recorded in the VAUX area

 

when the video signals are recorded.

 

z When [23/24], [25 (HD)], [25 (SD)], [50 (HD)], or

 

[50 (SD)] is selected in System Menu No. 25

 

(SYSTEM FREQ) and [VAUX] is selected, the

 

output time codes may not be consecutive.

 

 

514

For selecting whether to superimpose the VITC

 

information on the HD serial output.

HD EMBD

0000

OFF

VITC

The VITC information is not superimposed.

 

0001

ON

 

The VITC information is superimposed.

 

 

515

For selecting whether to superimpose the LTC

 

information on the HD serial output.

HD EMBD LTC

0000

OFF

 

The LTC information is not superimposed.

 

0001

ON

 

The LTC information ist superimposed.

 

 

516*1

For selecting the processing to align the phase

 

of the time code which is output from the TIME

TC OUT ADV

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 con-

 

ducted. 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.

 

 

517*1

For selecting whether to latch the TCG display

 

and LTC output during INPUT CHECK.

TCG OUT

0000 MOMENT

 

The INPUT CHECK mode is established only

 

while the INPUT CHECK key is held down.

 

0001

LATCH

 

When the INPUT CHECK key is pressed, the

 

INPUT CHECK mode is established; even when

 

it is released, the mode remains unchanged.

 

The selection is released when the video output

 

is set to a mode other than the EE mode.

 

 

 

The underlining (__) denotes the factory setting mode.

*1 When the 23/24 Hz mode, 25 Hz (HD, SD) mode, or 50 Hz (HD, SD) mode is selected in System Menu No. 25 (SYSTEM FREQ), this item is not displayed.

*2 When the 23/24 Hz mode, 25 Hz (HD, SD) mode, 50 Hz (HD, SD) mode or 50 Hz mode is selected in System Menu No. 25 (SYSTEM FREQ), this item is not displayed.
