Shooting - Sony SRW-9000PL Operation Manual

To record user bits
By setting user bits, you can record up to eight
hexadecimal digits of information (date, time,
etc.) in timecode tracks.
To record user bits after setting an arbitrary
value
Set OTHERS (MAIN) >RT REC to OFF.
To initialize user bits to an arbitrary value, set the
TCG SET (MAIN) >UBG SOURCE menu item
to INT. (The TCG MODE menu item can be set
to any value.)
Alternatively, set the TCG MODE menu item to
PRST. The TCG SET (MAIN) >UBG SOURCE
menu item can be set to any value (see "To select
user bits to record" (page 87)).
To set the user bit value, proceed as described in
"To preset an arbitrary initial timecode value". As
with timecode, all digits in user bit values can be
set to 0 by using the TIMER RESET menu item.
To record real time in user bits
Select the recording method with OTHERS
(MAIN) > RT REC (VITC only, both VITC and
LTC, or LTC only). Regardless of the setting of
TCG SET (MAIN) >UBG SOURCE, real time is
recorded in the specified location.
To set the real time to record, proceed as follows.
