Chapter 3 Preparations 3-6-3 Synchronizing the Internal Timecode Generator with a Playback Timecode - Timecode Recording during Auto Editing Set the following on the function menu: TCG on the P4 TC page: INT PRST/RGN on the P4 TC page: LTC or VITC In automatic editing, timecodes are recorded by using the output of the internal timecode generator, which has been synchronized during preroll with playback timecode read from the tape. For this reason, regardless of the actual settings of TCG and PRST/RGN on the P4 TC page, the unit operates as if then were set to INT and LTC or VITC. If you do not wish to have TCG and PRST/RGN settings fixed during automatic editing, you can set then with setup menu item 610. For details on setup menu item 610, see page 71. If you set TCG on the P4 TC page to EXT or SDI and PRST/RGN to PRESET, PRST/RGN is forced to function as LTC. 3-6-4 Converting Timecode in 24- or 25-Frame Mode Playback (TC CONV) When a tape recorded in 24-frame mode is played back in 25-frame mode (off-speed playback), the timecodes for 24frame mode can be converted to those for 25-frame mode. It is also possible to have the timecodes recorded in 25frame mode converted to those for 24-frame mode during playback. To have the timecodes converted, set setup item menut 620 to ON. For details on setup menu item 620, see page 71. Note While the timecodes are being converted, the timecode generator generates timecodes based on the frame frequency recorded on the tape, which makes a difference in the timecodes generated in FREE RUN of about 4%. 30 Setting Timecode

Synchronizing the Internal
Timecode Generator with a Playback
Timecode – Timecode Recording
during Auto Editing
Set the following on the function menu:
TCG on the P4 TC page:
INT
PRST/RGN on the P4 TC page:
LTC or VITC
In automatic editing, timecodes are recorded by using the
output of the internal timecode generator, which has been
synchronized during preroll with playback timecode read
from the tape. For this reason, regardless of the actual
settings of TCG and PRST/RGN on the P4 TC page, the
unit operates as if then were set to INT and LTC or VITC.
If you do not wish to have TCG and PRST/RGN settings
fixed during automatic editing, you can set then with setup
menu item 610.
For details on setup menu item 610, see page 71.
If you set TCG on the P4 TC page to EXT or SDI and
PRST/RGN to PRESET, PRST/RGN is forced to function
as LTC.

Converting Timecode in 24- or
25-Frame Mode Playback (TC CONV)
When a tape recorded in 24-frame mode is played back in
25-frame mode (off-speed playback), the timecodes for 24-
frame mode can be converted to those for 25-frame mode.
It is also possible to have the timecodes recorded in 25-
frame mode converted to those for 24-frame mode during
playback. To have the timecodes converted, set setup item
menut 620 to ON.
For details on setup menu item 620, see page 71.
While the timecodes are being converted, the timecode
generator generates timecodes based on the frame
frequency recorded on the tape, which makes a difference
in the timecodes generated in FREE RUN of about 4%.
