Item

Description

[USER]

Records internal user values. User values can be set at [UBG] in the [SET01:TC/UB] screen of SmartUI. Setting values are held

even when the power is turned off.

For details, refer to “How to input user bits” (page 91).

[TIME]

Records the time measured by the internal clock.

[DATE]

Records the hour digit of year/month/day/date-time measured by the internal clock.

[EXT]

Records the user bits values currently entered to the <TC IN/OUT> terminal.

[TCG]

Records the time code value.

[FRAME RATE]

Records the camera photo frame rate information.

When playing back clips recorded in native format, the same frame rate information as VITC UB is output regardless of the

recorded value. Use at this setting when the editing device such as a computer uses the frame rate information of the user bits.

[REGEN]

Reads the user bit last recorded to P2 card that is currently to be recorded to and recording this value as it is.

NOTE

When slave-lock to the user bits value input to the <TC IN/OUT> terminal, set to [EXT].

While the user bits are slaved, the [UBG[R]] display is in black and white inversion.

After executing slave once, even if input from the <TC IN/OUT> terminal stops, the slave status will continue. However, in the following cases, the

slave status of the user bits will be released.

- When [UBG MODE] is set to other than [EXT]

- When user bits are set in the [SET01:TC/UB] screen of SmartUI

- When the power is turned off

The internal [USER] value retains the slaved value even after slave lock is released.

To input external time codes from the <TC IN/OUT> terminal, set [TC IN] in the main menu
