TC OUTPUT SIGNAL IN

 

Select the signal output from the TIME CODE OUT connector during normal (1)

 

REGEN MODE

 

speed playback in the following cases:

 

 

 

• For tape playback when the function menu item TCG (F1) is set to INT and TCG

 

 

 

(F2) set to REGEN.

 

 

 

• For preroll or postroll playback during automatic editing with the tape.

 

 

 

TAPE: During tape playback, the playback time code signal is output without

 

 

 

regeneration. (The time code values do not correspond to the video output.)

 

 

 

REGEN

: The playback time code is output after regeneration.

 

 

 

AUTO: The operation with the AUTO setting is as follows.

 

 

 

• The playback time code (LTC) signal is output delayed, to coincide with the

 

 

 

output video signal.

 

 

 

• Operation is independent of the internal time code generator settings or editing

 

 

 

state.

 

 

 

• The output video signal and LTC are only accurately synchronized for normal

 

 

 

speed playback.

 

 

 

• If the edit preset is turned on or off, the delay changes, and therefore the time

 

 

 

code will be discontinuous.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

607

U-BIT BINARY GROUP

 

Select the user bits to be used in the time code generated by the time code

 

FLAG

 

generator.

001: 8-bit characters compliant with ISO 646 and ISO 2022

PHASE CORRECTION

 

Select whether or not to carry out phase correction control on the LTC generated

 

 

 

by the time code generator.

 

 

 

OFF

: No control

 

 

 

ON: Carry out control.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

609

TCG CF FLAG

 

Select whether or not the color framing flag is set in the blank bit of the time code

 

 

 

data.

 

 

 

OFF

: Color framing flag is not set.

 

 

 

ON: Color framing flag is set.

 

 

 

AUTO: Color framing flag is set or not depending upon the color framing phase

 

 

 

relationship between the recorded video signal and the time code signal.

 

 

 

When AUTO is selected, color framing is controlled as follows according to the

 

 

 

operating mode of the time code generator.

 

 

 

• In INT PRESET mode (the function menu item TCG (F1) is set to INT and TCG

 

 

 

(F2) set to PRESET, and in modes other than the automatic editing mode): the

 

 

 

time code signal is generated with color framing locked to the video signal, and

 

 

 

the color framing flag is set.

 

 

 

• In INT REGEN mode (the function menu item TCG (F1) is set to INT and TCG

 

 

 

(F2) set to REGEN, and in the automatic editing mode), and also in EXT mode

 

 

 

(the function menu item TCG (F1) is set to EXT): the time code signal is

 

 

 

generated without color framing locked to the video signal, and the color framing

 

 

 

flag is not set.
