Time data
Displays time data for the current tape position.
The type of time data is CTL
1)
(tape running
time), timecode, or user bits, as selected with TC
Setup >TIMER SEL in the VTR menu
When Mark In data has been set by the FUNC +
REC buttons or SYSTEM >EDIT >IN POINT in
the VTR menu, it is displayed in the format “IN:
xx:xx:xx:xx” beneath (right side) the time data
for the current tape position.
When no Mark In data has been set,
“IN: --:--:--:--” appears. When TC Setup
>OTHERS (MAIN) >LTC Delay and/or TC
Setup >OTHERS (MAIN) >VITC Delay in the
VTR menu are set to something other than “NO
Delay”, “IN DLY:” appears beneath (to the left
side) the time data of the current position and the
LTC and/or VITC indicators light to indicate the
item(s) set to something other than “NO Delay”.
1) CTL signal: This is a control signal consisting of a
pulse signal recorded longitudinally on the tape for
every frame of video.

f
Channel condition/RF indicator
During playback, “CH.COND” appears and one
of three bars (green, yellow, and red) lights to
indicate the playback signal condition.
Green bar:
Playback signal quality is good.
Yellow bar:
Playback signal quality is degraded,
but playback is possible.
Red bar:
Playback signal quality is degraded. If
this continues, head cleaning or internal
inspection is needed.
During playback with manual tracking control,
the “CH.COND” indication in the HOME screen
flashes in yellow
. “CH.COND”
flashes during auto tracking operation.
During recording, “RF” appears and a green bar
or a red bar lights to indicate the recording signal
condition. Normally the green bar lights. If a
recording problem occurs, the red bar lights.
Green bar:

Remaining tape time
Displays the time remaining on the tape. “TOP” is
displayed at the start of the tape, and “END” is
displayed at the end. The time display flashes
when the tape is within three minutes of the end.
h
Battery level/external power supply
voltage
Displays the current power level of the battery
pack. When the battery pack is fully charged, all
seven segments light up. As the battery pack
discharges, the segments go out from left to right.
When the battery pack is almost exhausted, the
voltage indication and the tally indicator flash,
and a warning tone sounds intermittently. When
the battery pack is completely exhausted, the tally
indicator flashes at a higher rate and the warning
tone sounds continuously.
For details, see “Warning System” (page 155).
The voltage actually used by the unit (slightly
lower than the input voltage to the DC IN 11-17V
connector) is shown.
For details on the relation between display segments
and battery voltage, see “Checking the Power and
Voltage” (page 28).
i
Signal formats
When you press the HOME button with the
FUNC button held down, displays the system
(SYS), playback (PB), and monitor (MON)
output signal formats, in that order from the top
row.
By connecting the cable to the CTRL (CAM)
connector, you can operate the unit remotely. You
can also connect the AP-1 Assistant Panel to the
unit’s left-side panel. The AP-1 provides the same
functions as the switches and buttons on the unit’s
right-side panel.
See “Attaching the AP-1 Assistant Panel (Optional)”
(page 37) for more information about attaching the
AP-1.
