Setting the Time Code
To reset the time code to [00:00:00:00], select [Reset] instead. If the running mode is set to [Free Run], the
time code will be reset the moment you press SET and keep running continuously from 00:00:00:00.
3 Push the joystick up/down to set the hours and then press SET to move to the minutes.
4 Change the rest of the fields (minutes, seconds, frame) in the same way.
Press the CANCEL button to close the screen without setting the time code.
5 Select [Set] and then press SET to close the screen.
If the running mode is set to [Free Run], the time code will start running from the selected time code the
moment you press SET.
Putting the Time Code Display on Hold
If you set an assignable button to [Time Code Hold] (A 127), you can press the button to freeze the display of
the time code*. While the time code display is put on hold, [H] will appear on the screen next to the time code.
The time code continues to run normally while the time code display is on hold. When you resume the time code
display, the current time code will be displayed.
* The time code signal output from the 3G/HD-SDI terminal or TIME CODE terminal (both only) will not be put on hold. The
time code superimposed on the video signal output from MON. terminal ( only), HDMI OUT terminal and AV OUT terminal
will be put on hold.
About the Time Code Display
An icon may appear next to the time code depending on the operation. Refer to the following table.
NOTES
The frames value of the time code runs from 0 to 24.
When you are using interval recording, frame recording or slow & fast motion recording mode, you cannot
select the [Free Run] running mode. Conversely, when you are using pre-recording mode and when the movie
format is set to MXF+MP4, [Free Run] is set automatically and cannot be changed.
When you are using the [Free Run] running mode, the time code will continue running as long as the built-in
rechargeable lithium battery is charged, even if you disconnect all other power sources. However, this is less
accurate than when the camcorder is on.
If you set an assignable button to [Time Code] (A 127), you can press the button to open the
[¤ TC/UB Setup] > [Time Code] submenu.
