Setting the Time Code Setting the Time Code In mode, the camcorder generates a time code signal and records it with the recorded clips. The time code signal can be output from the SDI terminal, HDMI OUT terminal and TIME CODE terminal. In mode, 90 the time code embedded in the clip being played back can be output from the SDI terminal. Depending on the frame rate used, you may be able to select between a drop frame an non-drop frame time code signal (A 91). The default mode varies depending on the country/region of purchase and, though the time code display style is different for DF and NDF, in this section the NDF display style is used for simplicity's sake. Selecting the Time Code Mode You can select the camcorder's time code mode. Operating modes: 1 Select [Time Code Mode]. > [B # System Setup] > [Time Code Mode] 2 Select the desired option and then press SET. Options [Preset]: [Regen.]: The time code starts from an initial value you can select in advance. The default initial time code is 00:00:00:00. See the following procedures to select the time code running mode and set the initial time code. The camcorder will read the selected SD card and the time code will continue from the last time code recorded on the card. The time code runs only while recording so clips recorded consecutively on the same card will have continuous time codes. Setting the Time Code Running Mode If you set the time code mode to [Preset], you can select the time code running mode. 1 Select [Time Code Run]. > [B # System Setup] > [Time Code Run] 2 Select the desired option and then press SET. Options [Rec Run]: [Free Run]: The time code runs only while recording so clips recorded consecutively on the same card will have continuous time codes. The time code starts running the moment you press SET and keeps running regardless of the camcorder's operation.
