4-3-3 Setting the Time Code
Generator (TCG SOURCE/MODE)
There are two ways to record time codes on the VTR. One
way is to record the output of the VTR’s internal time code
generator. The other is to directly record time codes that
are input from an external time code generator.
The output from the internal time code generator can either
be set to a specified initial value, or synchronized with an
external time code generator.
The internal time code generator time code settings are
made with the [F6] (REGENE SOURCE)/[F7] (TCG
MODE) buttons. Menu selections and settings are shown
in the following table.
Regenerated signals are selected using the VTR SETUP
menu item 608 “TCG/UBG REGENE MODE setting”.
To check the running of the internal time code
generator
Press the INPUT CHECK button.
