TC Warnings

A TC warning is displayed firstly as a blinking “TC“ symbol

in the camera display. If the beeper volume is set to 1 or

higher, a warning beep will sound in time with the blinking

of the “TC“ symbol when the camera is in Standby. The

acoustic warning can be silenced by doing one of the

following:

• Remedy the cause of the warning.

• Switch off timecode.

• Set the beeper volume to 0 (see under Switching the

Beeper On and Off, Chapter 9.3).

• By briefly pressing the “SET“ button in Mode 1 of the

display. This will suppress the acoustic warning for 15

minutes.

• Running the camera. The acoustic warning will not sound

while the camera is running. After stopping the camera

the warning will begin to sound again approximately

3 seconds after the camera enters Standby.

The camera can also display more detailed warnings in

hexadecimal form. To see these, change the display to

Mode 4 (Timecode time) using the “MODE“ button and

then press the “SEL“ button.

The four digits in the upper line display hexadecimal

values (0 - 9 & A - F). Their meaning can be looked up in

the following tables. There is no warning if the upper line

displays 00:00. An example of an error warning is

00:03, which indicates two warnings:

• error in external synchronization and

• TC is switched on but not set

In this case both errors can be remedied by external

synchronization.
