4-3 TC Menu
Chapter 4 Menu Settings
Selecting the time code and the user bits to be recorded
Use the [F6], [F7], and [F9] buttons in the TC menu to
specify the time code and the user bits to be recorded. The
specifications for the various button settings are shown in
the following table.
1) The DF/NDF setting on the [F9] button is applied to the time code only
when “prst” is specified by the [F7] button; the DF/NDF setting is always
applied for the CTL timer.
2) Specify the signal to be regenerated with the VTR SETUP menu item 608
“TCG/UBG REGENE MODE”. Signals not specified by this menu item
are automatically set to Preset mode, regardless of the [F7] button setting.
Setting time codes
To set time codes, select “prst” with the [F7] (TCG
MODE) button in the TC menu and then follow the steps
below.
• Set the [F8] (RUN MODE) button to “rec” before setting
the time data for recording. When you select “rec”, time
data advances from a set value only during recording.
When you select “free”, time code advances in real time
after the initial value has been set.
• During recording, VITC is always written to the AUX
data area of the video signal.
