TC OUT ADVFor selecting the processing to align the
phase of the time code which is output from
the TIME CODE OUT connector.
Normally, the time code which is output from the
TIME CODE OUT connector is aligned with the
output video and audio.  If so required by the
connection with an external component or for
some other reason, this item makes it possible to
set the mode for aligning the phase with the
input.
0000OFF:
The phase alignment processing is not
conducted.  The time code which is output
from the TIME CODE OUT connector is
aligned with the output video and audio.
0001 EDIT:
During playback when an editing mode has
been selected and during editing, the time
code which is output from the TIME CODE
OUT connector is aligned with the input video
and audio.  In all other modes, it is aligned with
the output video and audio
.
517*1
TCG OUTFor selecting whether to latch the TCG
display and LTC output during INPUT CHECK.0000MOMENT:
The INPUT CHECK mode is established only
while the INPUT CHECK key is held down.
0001 LATCH:
When the INPUT CHECK key is pressed, the
INPUT CHECK mode is established; even
when it is released, the mode remains
unchanged.  The selection is released when
the video output is set to a mode other than the
EE mode. SBC (sub code data) area:
This is an area on the helical track, and it is separate from the video
and audio data area.  The time codes, recording dates and times
and other tape control information complying with SMPTE/EBU
standards are stored here.  As with the conventional LTC (linear time
code), the time code can be read even during rewinding or fast
forwarding.  It can also be read out when the tape has stopped.
VAUX (video auxiliary data) area:
This area is to be found in the video data area on the helical track.
The additional information relating to the video data is stored here.

TC OUT REFFor switching the phase of the time code,
which is output from the TIME CODE OUT
connector, in response to the external LTC
input when a setting other than “INT” has
been selected for setup menu item No.507 (TC
