Icon/Menu TC TC/UB SET Submenu (page) Setting TC PRESET (page 42 (GB)) Resets/Sets the time code value. RESET: Resets the time code value to 00:00:00:00. PRESET: Sets the time code value. RETURN : Returns to the TC/UB SET menu without changing the time code value. Note To set the initial time code value, you need to set TC MAKE to PRESET first. If TC MAKE has been set to REGEN, you cannot change the time code using this item. UB PRESET (page 43 (GB)) Resets/Sets the user bits value. RESET: Resets the user bits value to 00 00 00 00. PRESET: Sets the user bits value. (You can set the user bits as eight-digit hexadecimal values (0 to 9, A to F) (base 16) to have the date, time, scene number, and other information inserted into the user bits.) RETURN : Returns to the TC/UB SET menu without changing the user bits value. DV IN TC (page 44 (GB)) Selects whether to record internal time code or external time code while the unit records the signals input via the DV jack in DVCAM format. INTERNAL : Records the time code generated by the internal time code generator. (The value of the time code or user bits depends on the settings of other menu items, such as TC PRESET, UB PRESET, or TC MAKE.) EXTERNAL: Records the time code along with the video and audio signals input via the DV jack. (The internally generated user bits are recorded.) Notes • When you set REC MODE on the VTR SET menu to DV SP, this item cannot be used. Even if this item is set to EXTERNAL, when you set REC MODE on the VTR SET menu to DV SP, the setting becomes invalid and the unit records the internal time code. • When this item is set to EXTERNAL, the INPUT SELECT selector on the front panel is set to DV, and no signal is input via the DV jack, or the software of the editing controller does not output a time code, if you start recording, bars are recorded as time code. At the point that the input of a signal begins, the time code of that signal will be recorded. • When this item is set to EXTERNAL, if you input time code to the DV jack that is not continuous or does not advance correctly, the value of the recorded or displayed time code may not be equal to the actual value of the input one. If you use a tape with this problem, you may not be able to perform search or edit, depending on the devices you use.

RESET:
Resets the time code value to 00:00:00:00.
PRESET:
Sets the time code value.
RETURN
:
Returns to the TC/UB SET menu without changing the time code value.
Note
To set the initial time code value, you need to set TC MAKE to PRESET first. If TC MAKE
has been set to REGEN, you cannot change the time code using this item.
UB PRESET
(page 43 (GB))
Resets/Sets the user bits value.
RESET:
Resets the user bits value to 00 00 00 00.
PRESET:
Sets the user bits value. (You can set the user bits as eight-digit hexadecimal
values (0 to 9, A to F) (base 16) to have the date, time, scene number, and other
information inserted into the user bits.)
RETURN
:
Returns to the TC/UB SET menu without changing the user bits value.
DV IN TC
(page 44 (GB))
Selects whether to record internal time code or external time code while the unit records the
signals input via the DV jack in DVCAM format.
INTERNAL
:
Records the time code generated by the internal time code generator. (The
value of the time code or user bits depends on the settings of other menu items, such as
TC PRESET, UB PRESET, or TC MAKE.)
EXTERNAL:
Records the time code along with the video and audio signals input via the
DV jack. (The internally generated user bits are recorded.)
Notes
• When you set REC MODE on the VTR SET menu to DV SP, this item cannot be used.
Even if this item is set to EXTERNAL, when you set REC MODE on the VTR SET menu to
DV SP, the setting becomes invalid and the unit records the internal time code.
• When this item is set to EXTERNAL, the INPUT SELECT selector on the front panel is set
to DV, and no signal is input via the DV jack, or the software of the editing controller does
not output a time code, if you start recording, bars (– –:– –:– –:– –) are recorded as time
code. At the point that the input of a signal begins, the time code of that signal will be
recorded.
• When this item is set to EXTERNAL, if you input time code to the DV jack that is not
continuous or does not advance correctly, the value of the recorded or displayed time
code may not be equal to the actual value of the input one. If you use a tape with this
