* In Free Run mode, slaved to time code input to the TC IN connector.

* In Free Run mode, slaved to non-drop frame time code input to the TC IN connector.
2
* Setting F-FUN TC SAVE to 1394 in Free Run mode slaves it to the input from the 1394 connector, not to the TC IN connector
3
input.
* Setting TC IN UB REG to ON in the setting menu slaves it to user bits input to the TC IN connector.
4
* 5 Setting 1394 UB REG to ON in the setting menu slaves it to user bits input to the 1394 connector.
* 6 When UB MODE is the FRM RATE, it is output at the same frame rate as that generated by VITC UB.
* 7 Should the set capture frame rate differ from the recording frame rate, it is locked to Rec Run (not slaved)
* 8 Only in FILM CAM mode. In VIDEO CAM mode, it is locked at 30 frames.
* 9 Only in FILM CAM mode. In VIDEO CAM mode, it is locked at 24 frames.
