 While a time code signal is being received, the [FRAME SETTNG] and [COUNT-UP] settings of the

camcorder will be ignored and the external time code’s drop-frame bit will be used instead (if the
external time code is non-drop frame, “NDF” will appear on the side panel).

 The Genlock synchronization stabilizes after approx. 10 seconds. After that, the synchronization

will be maintained even if you disconnect the cable from the GENLOCK terminal.

 When an external time code signal is received, the camcorder's own time code will be

synchronized to it and the synchronization will be maintained even if you disconnect the cable
from the TIME CODE terminal. However, performing any of the following actions while the cable is
not connected will cause the time code to lag slightly; the correct time code will be restored once
you reconnect the cable.
- Turning the camcorder off/on.
- Changing the position of the

dial to or from

.

- Changing the position of the

/

(card/tape) switch.

- Changing the [SIGNAL STD] or [FRAME RATE] setting.

 If the external time code signal is incorrect or there is no input signal, the internal time code

(according to the [TIME CODE]/[COUNT-UP] settings) will be recorded on the tape instead.

 If the external Genlock signal is incorrect or there is no input signal, the external time code being

recorded on tape may be incorrect.

 When recording in SD mode, Time Code IN is not available if you select the 24F frame rate (the

mode will be canceled and the “TC-(IN OUT)” display on the side panel will disappear).

 When the camcorder is set to HD standard, Genlock synchronization is possible even if the

external Genlock signal is in SD standard. However, Genlock synchronization will not be possible
if the external Genlock signal is in HD standard but the camcorder is set to SD standard.

 The phase difference between the external Genlock signal and the camcorder is initially set to 0; it

can be adjusted within the range of approx. ±0.4H (-1023 to +1023) with the [SIGNAL SETUP]
[GENLCK ADJST] setting (

126

).

 Genlock synchronization is not possible when [SIGNAL STD] is set to [HD] and [SDI SPEC.] is set

to [SD LOCKED].

 About the Side Panel Indications

- “GENLOCK” will flash until the synchronization stabilizes and will stay on once the phase

synchronization has stabilized.

- “TC-(IN OUT)” indicates that the Time Code IN or Time Code OUT synchronization is available

with the TIME CODE switch.

- “EXT- LOCK” indicates that the camcorder has locked on to an external time code signal.
