No./Item Description
SBC (sub code data) area:
This area is separate from the video and audio data area
on the helical track. The time code complying with
SMPTE/EBU standards is stored here. As with the
conventional LTC (linear time code), the time code can be
read even during rewinding or fast forwarding. It can also
be read out when the tape has stopped.
VAUX (video auxiliary data) area:
This area is to be found in the video data area on the
helical track.
The additional information relating to the video data is
stored here.
Note:
The time code and user bit are controlled during tape
playback by the data which has been recorded in the
SBC area. This means that all the data recorded in the
SBC area alone is used as the data which is to be
indicated on the counter display section in the middle of
the front panel or in the superimposed display, or as
the data which is to be transmitted to the editing
controller or other unit.
This appears only when the optional board
AJ-YA93P has been installed. YA93P
