| PRESET : Sets the time code value. | |||

|
| Note | ||||
|
|
|
| To set the initial time code value, you need to set [TC MAKE] to [PRESET] first. If [TC | ||||
|
|
|
| MAKE] has been set to [REGENERATE], you cannot change the time code using this item. | ||||

| UB PRESET | Resets/Sets the user bits value. | ||||
|
|
| (page 41) |
| PRESET : Sets the user bits value. (You can set the user bits as | |||
|
|
|
|
| values (0 to 9, A to F) (base 16) to have the date, time, scene number, and other | |||
|
|
|
|
| information inserted into the user bits.) | |||
|
|
|
|
| RESET : Resets the user bits value to 00 00 00 00. | |||

| TC FORMAT | Selects the recording mode of the time code. | ||||
|
|
| (page 42) |
| AUTO | : Automatically sets the mode in accordance with the mode already set on a | ||
|
|
|
|
| cassette tape. (If nothing is recorded on the tape, the | |||
|
|
|
|
| this unit cannot correctly read the frame mode on the tape, it will use the frame mode | |||
|
|
|
|
| that was set in the last position on the tape that the unit can read correctly. If you | |||
|
|
|
|
| remove the cassette, the mode of the last position that the unit was able to read | |||
|
|
|
|
| correctly is cleared and the | |||
|
|
|
|
| from the same position. The | |||

| NDF : Selects the | |||
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Note | ||||
|
|
|
| When the [50i/60i SEL] is set to 50i, the unit operates as a 50i specification model. | ||||
|
|
|
| Therefore, the time code generated by the unit while recording in the DVCAM format | ||||
|
|
|
| changes to the | ||||
|
|
|
| jack when the [50i/60i SEL] is set to 50i, the time code generated by this unit is in the non- | ||||
|
|
|
| drop frame mode regardless of the [TC FORMAT] setting. If you intend to set the unit so | ||||
|
|
|
| that it generates the time code in the drop frame mode, set [50i/60i SEL] to 60i. As a result, | ||||
|
|
|
| the [TC FORMAT] setting will return to the status before the [50i/60i SEL] menu was set to | ||||
|
|
|
| 50i. | ||||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| TC RUN | Selects the advancement mode (counting up). | ||||
|
|
| (page 42) |
| REC RUN | : Time code value advances only while recording. | ||
|
|
|
|
| FREE RUN | : Time code value advances even when the unit is not recording. | ||
Notes
•If you set the advancement mode to [FREE RUN], the time code will be updated by the internal clock when the power is off. Therefore, when you turn on the unit again, the time code may have been delayed or advanced somewhat.
•If the internal backup battery is exhausted, the time code of the [FREE RUN] setting is initialized.
•Available only when [PRESET] is selected in [TC MAKE].
