9. TIME CODE OPERATION
The GY-DV500 also incorporates a time code reader. Therefore, when the unit enters record mode from record-pause mode, it can
read the time code data recorded on the tape and record time codes in continuation of the existing data. The recorded user's bit
data is identical to the user's bit data recorded on tape.
* However, approximately ±1-frame variations may occur in scene transition accuracy.
To enable this, set the time code related switches as follows before starting recording.
Set the VCR Setup Menu item No. 516 DISPLAY SELECT to
“TC”.
See page 69.
Set the counter display to show time codes or user's bit data.
Set the PRESET/REGEN switch to REGEN.
The time code run mode becomes unrelated to the REC/
FREE switch settings.
The time code framing mode automatically becomes the
mode (drop frame or non drop frame) already recorded on
the tape.
