• When the remote control switch on this unit is set to
9PIN or i.LINK, and an external device is connected to
the REMOTE connector or HDV/DV connector on the
rear panel, then it is only possible to switch TC and UB
by pressing the COUNTER SELECT button on this unit.
In this case, switch the time data display from the
external device.
• During playback, if there are discontinuous sections of
recording on the tape, these may cause the counter to
malfunction.
The count value of the counter in this unit is a simplified
result calculated from timecode.
In the following cases, therefore, an accurate result may
not be calculated.
• When using a tape with discontinuous timecode
• When using a tape with mixed DF/NDF recording
• When using a tape with unrecorded or discontinuous
recorded sections between recorded sections
• During playback, at the boundary between different
video recording formats (HDV, DVCAM, or DV), the
value shown for the counter at that position may be
inaccurate.
