Setting the Time Code
Setting the Time Code’s Initial Value
If you set the time code mode to [Preset], you can set the initial value of the time code.
1 Open the [Set Time Code] submenu.
> [ B # System Setup] > [Set Time Code]
2 Select [Change] and then press the joystick.
• The time code setting screen appears with an orange selection frame indicating the hours.
• To reset the time code to [00:00:00.00], select [Reset] instead. If the running mode is set to [Free Run], the
time code will be reset the moment you press the joystick and keep running continuously from 00:00:00.00.
3 Push the joystick up/down to set the hours and press the joystick to move to the minutes.
• Change the rest of the fields (minutes, seconds, frame) in the same way.
• Press the CANCEL button to close the screen without setting the time code.
4 Select [Set] and press the joystick to close the screen.
• If the running mode is set to [Free Run], the time code will start running from the selected time code the
moment you press the joystick.
Selecting Drop or Non-Drop Frame
When the frame rate is set to 59.94P or 29.97P, you can select between a drop frame (DF) or non-drop frame
(NDF) time code, depending on how you plan to use your recordings.
With all other frame rates, the time code is set to non-drop frame (NDF) and cannot be changed.
1 Open the [Time Code DF/NDF] submenu.
> [ B # System Setup] > [Time Code DF/NDF]
2 Select [DF] or [NDF] and then press the joystick.
• The time code display will differ depending on the setting. When you select [DF], the time code will appear
as [00:00:00.00]; when you select [NDF], it will appear as [00:00:00:00].
Putting the Time Code Display on Hold
If you set an assignable button to [Time Code Hold] ( A 119), you can press the button to freeze the display of
the time code*. While the time code display is put on hold, [ H ] will appear on the screen next to the time code.
The time code continues to run normally while the time code display is on hold. When you resume the time code
display, the current time code will be displayed.
* The time code signal output from the terminals will not be put on hold. However, the time code displayed on a monitor connected
to the HDMI OUT terminal will be put on hold.
