Required Settings Before Preset
1
Set the [TC GENE.] switch to REC or FREE .
[REC]
Preset data in the time code generator operates in
run mode during recording mode. Set this when
recording continous time code in connecting frames.
[FREE]
Time code starts to operate in run mode from the
preset time in the time code generator.
2
Select the framing mode for the time code generator
(only when the frame rate setting is 60 or 30 ).
Set using [Main Menu]B[TC/UB]B[Drop].
(A Page 82)
[Drop]
Sets the run mode of the time code generator to drop
frame mode.
Use this setting when placing emphasis on the
recording time.
[Non
Sets the run mode of the time code generator to non-
drop frame mode.
Drop]
Use this setting when placing emphasis on the
number of frames.
Memo :
Drop frame/non-drop frame mode
● When the frame rate setting in [Main Menu]B[Record Set...]
B[Record Format]B[Frame & Bit Rate] is 60 (30), the actual
number of frames per second is approximately 59.94
(29.97). However, the time code processing standard is 60
(30) frames. To make up for the frame number discrepancy,
the drop frame mode (Drop) drops the 00 frame and 01
frame every minute except for minutes that are multiples of
10.
● On the other hand, the non-drop frame mode (Non Drop)
does not drop frames and ignores the discrepancy with the
actual time.
