STARTING TC: Time code used as a reference when
converting time code.
JUMPING TC: The loopback point for converting
time code with STARTING TC as the reference
point, and the conversion done in both forward
and reverse directions.
The time code is discontinuous at this point.
The following table shows an example of how the 25 frame
time code is discontinuous when the operating frequency
is 25PsF, the playback tape is 24 frames, and STARTING
TC is 01:00:00:00, and 24F JUMPING TC 22:00:00:00
(JUMP TC SEL=–3H).
