Chapter 4 Adjustments and Settings for
The internal time code generator of the camera can be locked to an external generator. In addition, the time code generator of an external device can be locked to the internal time code generator of the camera.
Example of connections for external locking
As shown in the figure, connect both the reference video signal and the reference time code.
For details on reference signal and generator lock, refer to “Selection of external reference signal and generator lock setting” (page 61).
While the scan reverse is activated, delay of the image occurs internally. When the camera is connected in parallel to a device capable of recording without a delay, the delay of time codes must be synchronized in the main menu → [REC/PB] → [TC/UB] → [TC OUTPUT REF].
