Example: In the case of Japan
For Japan, if the country code is JP, it is 2 bytes, if JPN, it
is 3 bytes.
Thus, enter the following:
JP_ _
or
JPN _
where _ represents a space.
ORGANIZATION (organization code)
When you select this item, the character table appears.
(Refer to COUNTRY CODE above.)
Enter an abbreviated 4-byte alphanumeric string for the
organization code.
Note
There are no problems in recording or playing back audio-
video signals, if ORGANIZATION is not set.
Organization codes must be acquired by applying to the
SMPTE registration office. When no organization code has
been acquired, it is forbidden to enter an arbitrary string.
As a rule, the code "00" must be entered. Freelance
operators who do not belong to an origination should enter
"~."
USER CODE
When you select this item, the USER CODE window
appears.
(Refer to the COUNTRY CODE window above.)
Enter the 4-byte alphanumeric strings for user
identification.
The user code is registered with each organization locally.
It is usually not centrally registered.
When the user code is less than 4 bytes, enter the user code
from the beginning of the 4 bytes and enter the space
character (20h) in the remaining strings.
This user code is determined by the organization. The
methods used depend on the organization.
Note
User bits cannot be entered when no organization code has
been entered.
INSTANCE NO.
Select the method for generating the numbers to be used to
identify the original video images.
RND: Random
GEN: Generation (number of times of copy)
Ask the system administrator for selection.
TIME ZONE
When you select this item, the TIME ZONE window
appears.
The UTC is calculated based on the local time, using the
time zone. If the time zone is not set, the UTC is not
recorded correctly.

Set the time difference from UTC. When setting the
summer time or daylight savings time, change the code to
one which will advance the time by 1 hour.
Note
When you change the time zone, adjust the built-in clock
to local time and turn the power of the camcorder off and
then the power on again.
