TC/UB SET TC FORMAT
Selects the recording mode of the time code when 60i format is used.
B
AUTO :
Automatically sets the mode in accordance with the mode already set on a
cassette tape. (If nothing is recorded on the tape, the non-drop frame mode
is set. If the unit cannot correctly read the frame mode on the tape, it will
use the frame mode that was set in the last position on the tape that the
unit can read correctly. If you remove the cassette, the mode of the last
position that the unit was able to read correctly is cleared and the non-drop
frame mode is set when recording is restarted from the same position. If
[TC MAKE] is set to [PRESET], the non-drop frame mode is set.)
DF :
Selects the drop frame mode.
NDF :
Selects the non-drop frame mode.
When [60i/50i SEL] is set to [50i], the unit operates as a 50i specification model. Therefore,
the time code is set to the non-drop frame mode. Even if 60i signals are input via an i.LINK
connection when [60i/50i SEL] is set to [50i], the time code generated by the unit is in the
non-drop frame mode regardless of the [TC FORMAT] setting. To set the time code to the
drop frame mode, set [60i/50i SEL] to [60i]. As a result, [TC FORMAT] setting will return to
the status before the [60i/50i SEL] menu was set to [50i].
TC RESET
Resets the time code value to 00:00:00:00.
B
NO :
Does not reset the time code value.
YES :
Resets the time code value.
WhenThis setting is available only when the unit is in REC or REC PAUSE mode. Also, when
the INPUT SELECT switch is set to HDV/DV and [HDV/DV IN TC] is set to [EXTERNAL], this
setting will not be affected and the time code will not be reset.

the picture.
• Noise reduction is also available with pictures output from the
HDV/DV jack. Use caution
when dubbing and editing a picture via the
HDV/DV jack.
