TIME CODE (continued)

No./Item		Description of setting
506*1	For selecting the editing mode range when the VTR is
REGEN	operating in the REGEN mode while performing
	editing operations with “AUTO” selected as the menu
MODE
	item No.503 TCG MODE setting.
	0000	AS&IN :
	Regeneration applies during assemble or insert
	editing.
	0001	ASSEM :
	Regeneration applies during assemble editing.
	0002	INSRT :
	Regeneration applies during insert editing.
	<Note>
	At the time of frame-by-frame shooting, the
	operations are equivalent to assemble editing.
507*1	For selecting the time code to be used when an
EXT TC SEL	external time code is used.
	0000	EXT_L :
	The LTC information of the TIME CODE IN
	connector is used.
	0001	SLTC :
	The LTC information added to the serial signals
	which are supplied to the HD SDI IN connector is
	used.
	0002	SVITC :
	The VITC information added to the serial signals
	which are supplied to the HD SDI IN connector is
	used.
	<Note>
	When selecting “1394” with the INPUT VIDEO switch
	on the front panel, the time code input to IEEE1394
	digital input/output connector is used.
	The VITC information will not be superimposed onto
	the video signal output when recording is performed
	or the EE mode is established. The LTC information
	and VITC information are not superimposed onto the
	HD serial output signals.
508*1	For setting the usage status for the user bits of the
BINARY GP	time code generated by the TCG.
	0000	000 :
	No character set specified
	0001	001 :
	8-bit character set complying with the ISO646 and
	ISO2022 standards
	0002	010 :
	Undefined
	0003	011 :
	Undefined
	0004	100 :
	Undefined
	0005	101 :
	Page/line
	0006	110 :
	Undefined
	0007	111 :
	Undefined
509	For setting whether to control the phase correction of
PHASE	the LTC output during playback.
CORR	0000	OFF :
	The phase correction is not controlled.
	0001	ON :
	The phase correction is controlled.
510*1	For selecting whether to set the CF flag of the TCG to
TCG CF	ON.
	0000	OFF :
FLAG
	The CF flag is set to OFF.
	0001	ON :
	The CF flag is set to ON.

No./Item		Description of setting
511*1	For selecting whether to use the DF or NDF mode for
DF MODE	CTL and TCG.
	0000	DF :
	The drop frame (DF) mode is used.
	0001	NDF :
	The non-drop frame (NDF) mode is used.
512*1	When the TCG switch of the front panel is set to EXT,
TC OUT REF	it switches the phase of time code output from the TC
	OUT connector for external LTC input. (In EE mode
	only)
	0000	VOUT :
	Match the output image.
	0001	TC_IN :
	Match the external time code input.
513	For selecting how to output the VITC signal which is
VITC OUT	superimposed onto the output video signal.
	0000	SBC :
	In the playback mode, the time code recorded in
	the SBC area*A is output.
	0001	VAUX :
	In the playback mode, the time code recorded in
	the VAUX area*B is output.
	<Notes>
	z The VITC information which is detected by the HD
	serial input is automatically recorded in the VAUX
	area when the images are recorded.
	z When “23/24,” “25(HD),” “25(SD),” “50(HD)” or
	“50(SD)” is selected as the menu item No.25
	SYSTEM FREQ setting and VAUX is selected as
	the VITC OUT setting, the time code which is
	output may not be continuous.
514*1	For selecting whether to superimpose the VITC
HD EMBD	information onto the HD serial output.
	0000	OFF :
VITC
	The VITC information is not superimposed.
	0001	ON :
	The VITC information is superimposed.
515*1	For selecting whether to superimpose the LTC
HD EMBD	information onto the HD serial output.
	0000	OFF :
LTC
	The LTC information is not superimposed.
	0001	ON :
	The LTC information is superimposed.

*1 Displayed menus may vary depending on the settings in menu No. 25 SYSTEM FREQ. For details, refer to “Menus which are displayed” (page 32).

*A The SBC (Sub Code Data) area is an area that exists separately from the video and audio area on the helical track and contains the tape management information, such as the time code, in compliance with the SMPTE/ EBU and the recording time. As with the ordinary LTC (Linear Time Code), the time code can be read even when rewinding/fast-forwarding and can be read out when the tape stops.

*B The VAUX (Video Auxiliary Data) area is an area in the video area on the helical track and contains information related to the video data.

“_____” indicates the factory setting.
