– 78 – Time code/user bit Time code The time code is used when the time code signal generated by the time code generator (time code signal generator) is to be recorded on the tape, its values are to be read by the time code reader (time code signal reader), and the absolute position of the tape is to be displayed in increments of hours, minutes, seconds and frames. The time code is written in the sub-code area (data area) of the helical track. This enables insert editing to be conducted independently using the time code alone. In addition, the VTR’s playback speed can be read from the stop mode to slow-motion playback up to high- speed play (approx. 50× normal speed/approx. 100× when using DVCPRO tape). The time code values are indicated using the display and superimpose functions. TCR 00 : 07 : 04 : 24 MinutesSeconds Hours Frames User bit “User bit” refers to the 32-bit (8-digit) data frame among the time code signals which has been released to users. It enables operator numbers values to be recorded. The alphanumeric characters which can be used for the user bit are the figures 0 to 9 and the letters A to F.

(Internal time code selected) 4Set the Setup menu No. 504 (RUN MODE). REC RUN:The time code runs at the same time as the recording proceeds. FREE RUN:The time code runs in the same way as the time regardless of the VTR’s operation. 5Set the Setup menu No. 503 (REGEN). REGEN:Continuity is maintained with the recorded time code before editing. (Detailed settings are also possible using the menu settings. See the menu items below.) Setup menu No. 505 (TCG REGEN) Setup menu No. 506 (REGEN MODE) PRESET:Recording starts from the value set with the TC SET button. During auto editing, REGEN will be selected by the setup menu No. 506 setting even if the switch has been set to the PRESET position. 6Set the TC SET button. Use the TC SET button to set the start number of the time code or user bit. 1Press the SHIFT button. The leftmost digit flashes. 2Press the ADJ button to change the value. Each time the button is pressed, the number changes.

UB:The user bit is displayed. •When it is no longer possible to read the time code, it is interpolated using the CTL signal. 4Press the PLAY button. Playback now commences, and the time code appears on the display. When setup menu No. 005 (SUPER) is ON, the time code value is superimposed onto the video signal from the VIDEO OUT3 connector. •The colon between the seconds and frames changes to a period when the drop frame time code is read. •When the time code signal is missing, it is automatically compensated for using the CTL signal.
