*1 It will not be slaved to a TC or UB value that is input in the SDI IN connector.

*2 Can be slaved to values input through the DVCPRO/DV connector but not to the TC for TC IN connector.

*3 If the option menu FRAME RATE UB is set to MENU, then recording is performed as per the UB or VITC UB mode. If this is the case, however, edit tools (e.g. PC edit software) cannot record the required information.

*4 For free run, the time code is slaved to the time code input through the TC IN connector.

*5 For free run, the time code is slaved to the time code input through the TC IN connector if it is a non-drop frame.

*6 When the option UB MODE is set to EXT, then the bits are slaved to the user bits input through the TC IN connector. *7 If the option UB MODE is set to EXT, then the bits are slaved to the user bits input through the DVCPRO/DV

connector.

*8 Regardless of the menu settings, frame rate information is always recorded. During playback, the information is output after being converted into pull-down frame rate information.

*9 When the UB MODE is set to [FRM.RATE], the pull-down frame rate information read out from the UB in the VAUX area is output during playback.

*10 For details on this item, refer to [Recording formats and output connector signal formats] (page 43)
