Chapter 3 Preparations Synchronizing with embedded LTC input to the SD/HDSDI INPUT connector 1 Input an HDSDI signal containing embedded LTC to the SD/HDSDI INPUT connector, and a reference video signal to the REF. VIDEO INPUT connector. 2 Make the following settings on page P5 TC of the function menu. • Set TCG to "SDI". • Set PRST/RGN to "TC". Executing either of these procedures starts the internal timecode generator running in synchronization with the external timecode generator. Once the internal timecode generator is synchronized with the external timecode generator, the internal timecode generator continues to run even if the external timecode generator connection is removed. The timecode advance mode is set automatically to Free Run. The frame count mode (for system frequency 59.94i/ 59.94P/29.97P only) is set to the same mode as the external timecode signal (drop-frame or non-drop-frame). To check the synchronization to the external signal Press the STOP button to stop this unit, then press the REC button. Check that the timecode value shown in the time data display coincides with the external timecode value. To record external timecode directly (External Preset) When you use this method, the internal timecode generator advances without being affected by the external timecode. To directly record timecode input to the TIME CODE IN connector Input the timecode output of an external device to the TIME CODE IN connector, and make the following settings on page P5 TC of the function menu. • Set TCG to "EXT". • Set PRST/RGN to "PRESET".

Preparations

Synchronizing with embedded LTC input to the

SD/HDSDI INPUT connector

Input an HDSDI signal containing embedded LTC to

the SD/HDSDI INPUT connector, and a reference

video signal to the REF. VIDEO INPUT connector.

Make the following settings on page P5 TC of the

function menu.

•

Set TCG to “SDI”.

•

Set PRST/RGN to “TC”.

Executing either of these procedures starts the internal

timecode generator running in synchronization with the

external timecode generator.

Once the internal timecode generator is synchronized with

the external timecode generator, the internal timecode

generator continues to run even if the external timecode

generator connection is removed.

The timecode advance mode is set automatically to Free

Run. The frame count mode (for system frequency 59.94i/

59.94P/29.97P only) is set to the same mode as the external

timecode signal (drop-frame or non-drop-frame).

To check the synchronization to the external

signal

Press the STOP button to stop this unit, then press the REC

button.

Check that the timecode value shown in the time data

display coincides with the external timecode value.

To record external timecode directly

(External Preset)

When you use this method, the internal timecode generator

advances without being affected by the external timecode.

To directly record timecode input to the TIME

CODE IN connector

Input the timecode output of an external device to the

TIME CODE IN connector, and make the following

settings on page P5 TC of the function menu.

•

Set TCG to “EXT”.

•

Set PRST/RGN to “PRESET”.
