Chapter 2 Preparations Time Data Handled by This Unit • During variable-speed playback, the timecode output follows the setting of the MUTING IN SRCH menu item (see page 80). Using time data allows you to easily check time information, ensure high precision editing, and synchronize multiple devices. With this unit, you can use the following time data. Display of count value of the counter (CNT): Relative position on the tape in frame units. Can be reset. REC DATE/TIME display: recording date and recording time (except when recording format is DVCPRO) Timecode setting, display, recording, and playback: • LTC and user bit data • VITC (recording on the tape and tape playback are in DVCAM format only) • SD/HD SDI embedded timecode (SD-SDI signal: RP188. HD-SDI signal: ARIB STD-B4.2.0, and RP188.) The relation between recording/playback format and handled time data is as follows. YES: handling possible / NO: handling impossible Recording/ playback format Time data Counter LTC (and value user bit data) VITC 2) HDV 1080i YES YES NO DVCAM YES YES YES 3) DV (SP) YES YES 1) NO 4) DVCPRO YES YES NO (25 Mbps) REC DATE/ TIME Display only Display only Display only NO 1) For cassettes recorded on consumer equipment, the recording is always in DF mode. User bit data cannot be hadled. 2) You can synchronize this unit's internal timecode generator to the VITC in an analog video signal. However, this can only be recorded as VITC data when the recording format of this unit is DVCAM. 3) If REC DATE/TIME is recorded in place of VITC, then REC DATE/ TIME is displayed. 4) When REC DATE/TIME is recorded, by setting the VITC menu item to ON, you can view the REC DATE/TIME value in place of VITC. You can also output a timecode read from the tape, or input an external timecode signal. Notes • REC DATE/TIME recording is not supported. • When this unit is in a mode other than normal speed playback, there is no output from the TC OUT connector. The output when the unit is in E-E mode can be changed using the EE OUT PHASE menu item (see page 80). 32 Time Data Handled by This Unit
