Select the signal output from the TIME CODE OUT connector during normal (×1)
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.
Select the user bits to be used in the time code generated by the time code
generator.

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.
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.
