Chapter 4 Time Values
You can set the user bits as eight-digit hexadecimal
values (base 16) to have the date, time, scene number,
and other information inserted into the time code.
When using both the time code and user bits, set up the
user bits first. If you set the time code first, the internal
time code generator will remain stopped while you set
the user bits, which will set the time value off from the
original setting.

Setting the user bit value may be disallowed in some
cases at ClipLink shooting. For details, see step
