4-1 Recording
1
Carry out either of the following.
When synchronizing to an external time code
Connect the time code output of the external time code
generator or external recorder to the TIME CODE IN
connector.
When synchronizing to the time code (VITC) in an
input video signal
Watching the INPUT display, press the VIDEO
INPUT SEL button to select an input video signal
containing VITC.
2
Press the MENU button, then make the following
settings.
• Set extended menu item 629 “TC SELECT” to “tc”
or “vitc.”
• Set extended menu item 626 “TC MODE” to “ext
regen.”
For details of menu setting operations, see Chapter 6
“Menus” on page 53.
This starts the internal time code generator running in
synchronization with the external time code generator.
Once the internal time code generator is synchronized
with the external time code generator, even if the
external time code generator connection is removed,
the internal time code generator continues to run.
Notes
• When the input video signal selected is i.LINK or SDI,
(the INPUT display shows i.LINK or SDI), then setting
extended menu item 626 “TC MODE” to “ext regen”
automatically synchronizes the internal time code
generator to the time code received through the S400
(i.LINK) connector or SDI IN connector.
• When extended menu item 626 “TC MODE” is set to
“ext regen,” the internal time code advance mode and
frame count mode (for 525 line mode only) are
automatically set as follows.
Advance mode: free running
Frame count mode (for 525 line mode only): the same
as the external time code signal (drop frame or non-
drop frame)
To check the synchronization to the external
signal
Press the STOP button to stop this unit, then press the REC
button.
Check that the time code value shown in the time data
display coincides with the external time code value.
