(External time code selection)
4 Make the following settings in setup menu No. 507
(EXT TC SEL).
◆ NOTE:
• When SLTC and SVITC is set and an analog composite or SD
SDI input signal is selected, the VITC on the input video signal
is recorded. When 1394 is selected as the input signal, the IEEE
1394 digital input signal time code is recorded.

■ Time code when no power is supplied
Also when no power is supplied, the backup function works
enabling the time code generator to provide long-term (about
one year) operation. Accuracy when no power is supplied is
about ±30 s per month.
◆ NOTE:
•Under the conditions listed below when the time code generator
advances regardless of operation mode, the backup function is
enabled
- When the TCG switch on the front panel is set to “PRESET” and
menu No. 504 RUN MODE is set to “FREE.”
- When the TCG switch on the front panel is set to “EXT” and the
external time code set in menu No. 507 EXT TC SEL is
disconnected from connector on the rear panel.
•When settings in menu No. 25 SYSTEM FREQ are revised, advance
data is cleared.
