video signal is automatically recorded in
the VAUX area while pictures are being
recorded.
• If Y P
B PR, CMPST, S-VIDEO or SDI is
selected as the input signal, the VITC
output during recording is a timecode
superimposed on the input signal
regardless of the above setting.

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.
