DISPLAY
Pressing DISP (F3) on the first System Settings page takes you to the Display menu :
Pressing Style (F1) moves the cursor to the Style field.
This allows you to set the type of timecode you wish the DD8 to display. Normally, this is the
same as the timecode type selected in the EXT. TIME SOURCE field on the SYNC page (and
the DD8 will take care of this automatically) but you may choose to view another time display if
you wish. The selections are:
AS EXT. TIME SOURCE - The time display style is automatically selected to be the same as the
timecode selected in the EXT. TIME SOURCE field.
