Note: 5 External timer control should only be used to start VCR operation. Do not use an external timer to turn the VCR power off while the tape is running. Doing so could damage this unit or the tape. 9 TIME CODE The time code is recorded frame by frame together with the materials to be recorded on the tape. With this time code, the position of the materials can be precisely specified, improving the editing accuracy and working efficiency. (The editing accuracy of 0 frame may not be obtained even though the time code is used, depending on the performance of the VCR and editing controller and influence of editing system.) With this system, the time code can be recorded and played back.

Determine the required time code value beforehand. • Set the [COUNTER] switch to "TC" so that the counter display shows the time code. • Set the [COUNTER] switch to "UB" to show the user bits on the counter display. Time code presetting is described below. The same procedure is used to preset the user bits, except that user bit values are hexadecimal (0 to F ). 26 27
