Setting the time data
When the user bits and time code are both to be used,
the user bits are set first.
If the time code is set first, the time code generator
will stop while the user bits are being set so that the
time code setting will be off.
The time code setting range extends from 00:00:00:00
to 23:59:59:29.
Setting the user bits
In the internal color bar signal recording mode,
memos (dates and times) of up to six hexadecimal
digits can be recorded on the sub-code track by
setting the user bits.

flashing digit.
