This section describes the steps for setting time code
recording methods for particular shooting conditions
and setting initial values.
When using both the time code and user bits, set up
the user bits first. If you set the time code first, the
internal time code generator will remain stopped while
you set the user bits, which will set the time value off
from the original setting.
