Timecode in the SSR is controlled by three settings in the SYSTEM menu. (See section 5.2)

TC GEN – only available when the TC source is internal.
PRESET
REGEN
2.
TC SOURCE

The following table shows TC setting combinations and their effect.

External TC if it is present, preset UB if no external TC.
Time code is inserted into the recorded data stream in Link A unless HD-SDI is selected as the
source, in which case the original timecode is left unchanged.
Panavision recommends that you consult your post-production house about TC settings.
