●Regeneration operation
•When time code is being
regenerated with input
time code, the built-in time
code generator stops
counting when no time
code is input.
●In the Play mode, time
code regeneration is based
on the playback time code
value.
●Inserting time code
If only time code data is
being inserted, record it on
the main time code. It is not
possible to insert it in the
sub time code.
1. Front sub panel switch setting
● Select the External Time Code Generator mode by setting the [INT/EXT]
switch to “EXT”.
The [FREE/REC] and [PRESET/REGEN] switch settings are not necessary.
● Select the Counter Display or On-screen Display mode to TC or UB with the
[COUNTER] and [SHIFT] buttons.
2. Menu switch setting
● Select the external time code to be regenerated.
● Menu switch No. 409 <EXT REGEN TC> (Initial setting: LTC (0))
LTC (0): Regenerates the LTC time code input through the rear panel
[TC IN] connector.
Input LTC time code should be regenerated (matched in
terms of sync and phase) with video signals. Make sure you
input an external sync signal to the feeding equipment.
VITC (1): Regenerates the VITC time code superimposed on the video
signal input through the rear panel VIDEO IN connector.
● User bit data selection
● Menu switch No. 457 <UB PRESET AUTO> (initial setting OFF (0))
OFF (0): User bits regenerated by the time code generator of this unit is
recorded.
ON (1): The user bit auto preset function is activated and the user bit
data stored in the built-in memory is recorded.
● Select the sub time code.
● Menu switch No. 450 <SUB TC (VITC) REC> (Initial setting: ON(1))
OFF (0): “00:00:00:00” is always recorded on the sub time code.
ON (1): Records the input VITC time code in the sub time code.
3. Record the time code.
Press the [PLAY] button while pressing the [REC] button.
[The selected time code will be recorded.

Sub time code is output through the [VIDEO OUT-LINE] connector as VITC time code when menu switch No. 451
<VITC OUT SELECT> is set to “SUB TC”. Only the main time code is output through the [TC OUT] connector.
Setting
1. Front panel switch setting
● Select a Counter Display mode to TC or UB with the [COUNTER] and [SHIFT]
buttons.
2. Menu switch setting
● For VITC time code output, select a line to be added to the video signal.

(Initial setting: NTSC 16 LINE/PAL 19 LINE)
● Menu switch No. 401 <VITC LINE-2 SELECT>
(Initial setting: NTSC 18 LINE/PAL 21 LINE )
● Select VITC time code output through the [VIDEO OUT] connector.
Menu switch No. 451 <VITC OUT SELECT>
SUB TC (0) :Outputs the VITC time code recorded in the sub time code.
TC (1) :Outputs the time code recorded in the main time code.
OFF :VITC time code is not output from the [VIDEO OUT]
connector.
Factory setting :TC (1)
● Select the Time Code Output mode during search.
Menu switch No. 452 <SEARCH LTC>
OFF (0) :Outputs time code through the [TC OUT] connector during search

●When you are using this
deck as a player, the
recording time code may
not be regenerated when
you output embedded

signals to the BR-D750U,
BR-D85U or BR-D80U. In
this case, set menu switch
No. 237 <EMBEDDED
