To set the advancement mode
Set TC RUN on the TC/UB SET menu to switch the
advancement mode (counting up).
REC RUN: Time code advances only while
recording.
FREE RUN: Time code advances even when the
unit is not recording. This mode is used to set the
current time as the initial time code value.
Notes
• If you set the advancement mode to FREE RUN, the
time code will be updated by the internal clock while
the unit's power is off. The time code may have been
delayed or advanced somewhat if you turn on the unit
power again, play back a tape, or set the INPUT
SELECT selector to DV.
• If the internal backup battery charge is exhausted, the
time code of the FREE RUN setting will be
initialized. The internal backup battery is fully
charged if you connect the power to the unit for about
8 hours. A fully charged internal battery can run for
about two weeks.
To set the frame mode (For NTSC only)
Set TC FORMAT on the TC/UB SET menu to switch
the frame mode.
AUTO: Automatically sets the mode in accordance
with the loaded tape.
If nothing is recorded on the tape, the mode is set
to the non-drop frame mode. If the unit cannot
read the frame mode correctly from the tape, the
unit will use the mode that was set in the last
position it was able to read correctly on the tape. If
you remove the cassette, the mode of the last
position it was able to read correctly is cleared and
the mode is set to the non-drop frame mode. If TC
MAKE is set to PRESET, the mode is also set to
the non-drop frame mode.
DF: Selects the drop frame mode.
NDF: Selects the non-drop frame mode.
Notes
• In a DV format recording, the drop-frame mode is
used automatically.
• When the NTSC/PAL select switch on the rear panel
is set to PAL, the unit works as a PAL model.
Therefore, the time code generated by the unit during
recording in the DVCAM format is that of the non-
drop frame mode. Even if an NTSC formatted signal
is input to the DV jack, the time code generated by
the unit is non-drop frame mode as long as the
NTSC/PAL select switch is set to PAL, regardless of
the setting of this item. If you intend to set the unit to
generate the time code in the drop frame mode, set
the NTSC/PAL select switch to NTSC.
