If recording starts from a blank portion of the tape, the time code begins counting from 00:00:00 (minutes: seconds: frame number). If recording starts from the end of a previously recorded scene, the time code continues from the last time code number.
Note: The time code is automatically set to 00:00:00 when a tape is ejected.
