Rerecording the Time Code — TC Insert Function

The TC insert function makes it possible to use the internal time code generator to rewrite time code and user bits when the time code recorded on a tape is discontinuous.

You can start recording time code from an initial value which can be set freely. (See page 33.)

Notes

•Use a tape which is recorded in the DVCAM format. (You cannot use the TC insert function with a tape recorded in DV format.)

•The time code recording starts from the tape position at which this unit was servo-locked. (From the current tape position, there is about 3 seconds delay at playback of normal speed or about 16 seconds delay at playback of 4 times normal speed.) To start time code recording at the current tape position, first rewind the tape by the time needed to allow the unit to be servo-locked before reaching the current tape position.

•If you use a tape on which ClipLink log data is recorded, the ClipLink log data will be lost.
