4-5 Setting Time Data
4-5-1 Setting the User Bits
The user bits allow information, including memos that use up to
eight-digit base 16 numbers (date and time), to be recorded in
the secondary code area.
1 Position the DISPLAY switch at [UB].
2 Position the TCG switch at [SET].
When the left digit starts blinking you can change the value.
3 Use CURSOR buttons to set the user bits.
button: Shifts the target (blinking) digit to the right.
button: Shifts the target (blinking) digit to the left.
button: Advances the blinking number by one digit.
button: Winds back the blinking number by one digit.
4 Position the TCG at [F-RUN] or [R-RUN].
5 Go to the <TC/UB> screen from the MAIN OPERATION
page, and set the menu option UB MODE to “USER”.
<Note>
When the TCG switch is positioned at [SET], thumbnails
cannot be manipulated.
Retaining the user bits
The data set for the user bits are automatically saved and
retained even if the video camera-recorder is turned off.
Card continuity provided by the user's bit
If the menu option UB MODE is set to “REGEN”, the AJ-
SPX900E reads the user bits in the last frame of the last clip
recorded on a P2 card (clip with the most recent recording date
and time), and records that bit onto the next card. Note that
settings for the user bits are not recorded.
The menu option UB MODE can be found in the <TC/UB>
screen, which is accessible from the MAIN OPERATION page.
<Note>
The AJ-SPX900E also records the time code and user bits in the
VIDEO AUX area. The value for the time code (VITC) is the
same as that of the time code (LTC) in the secondary code area.
The user bits (of VITC) also records special information,
including the shoting frame rate.
