Time code and user’s bit data generated from the internal
time code generator are recorded.

menu. (A Page 88)

[Record Set] B [Record Format] B [Frame & Bit Rate] is
A50, 25, 24B, settings cannot be made in [Drop].

Memo :
Drop frame/non-drop frame mode
● When the frame rate setting in [Main Menu] B
[Record Set] B [Record Format] B [Frame & Bit Rate] is
60 (30), the actual number of frames per second is
approximately 59.94 (29.97). However, the time code
processing standard is 60 (30) frames. To make up for the
frame number discrepancy, the drop frame mode (Drop)
drops the 00 frame and 01 frame every minute except for
minutes that are multiples of 10.
● On the other hand, the non-drop frame mode (Non Drop)
does not drop frames and ignores the discrepancy with
the actual time.
Using the Internal Time
Code Generator
[REC] Preset data in the time code generator operates in
run mode during recording mode. Set this when
recording continuous time code in connecting
frames.
[FREE] Time code starts to operate in run mode from the
preset time in the time code generator.
[Drop] Sets the run mode of the time code generator to drop
frame mode.
Use this setting when placing emphasis on the
recording time.
[Non
Drop]
Sets the run mode of the time code generator to non-
drop frame mode.
Use this setting when placing emphasis on the
number of frames.
