After the chase-lock is achieved, the VF80EX
switches to run freely according to the internal
clock or the clock received from the digital input.
It does not chase the master even if the VF80EX
timecode shifts off the master timecode.

If you try to make recording, paste or erase data while
[Rec Protect] is set to "On", [Protected] is shown on the
display for a second and the operation is canceled.
To make the operation possible, set [Rec Protect] to "Off".
