Time Data
Handled by This
Unit
Using time data allows you to easily check
time information, ensure high precision
editing, and synchronize multiple devices.
This unit allows setting of timecode value
and user bit data when an HDSDI signal or
the internal test signal is recorded.
When an HDV signal input to the
DV connector is recorded, the timecode and
user bit data embedded in the input signal is
recorded as it is.
In recording or E-E mode and during
playback, timecode or user bit data is
displayed on the monitor screen according
to the TC/UB button state.
