SBC (sub code data) area:
This is an area on the helical track, and it is separate from the video
and audio data area. The time codes, recording dates and times
and other tape control information complying with SMPTE/EBU
standards are stored here. As with the conventional LTC (linear
time code), the time code can be read even during rewinding or fast
forwarding. It can also be read out when the tape has stopped.
VAUX (video auxiliary data) area:
This area is to be found in the video data area on the helical track.
The additional information relating to the video data is stored here.
*1
When the 23/24 Hz mode, 25 Hz (HD, SD) mode, or 50 Hz
(HD, SD) mode is selected in System Menu No. 25 (SYSTEM
FREQ), this item is not displayed.
*2
When the 23/24 Hz mode, 25 Hz (HD, SD) mode, 50 Hz (HD,
SD) mode or 50 Hz mode is selected in System Menu No. 25
(SYSTEM FREQ), this item is not displayed.
The underlining (__) denotes the factory setting mode.

superimposed on the output video signal.
0000
SBC
In the playback mode, the time code recorded in
the SBC area is output.
0001
VAUX
In the playback mode, the time code recorded in
the VAUX area is output.
<Note>
z
The VITC information detected by the HD serial
input is automatically recorded in the VAUX area
when the video signals are recorded.
z
When [23/24], [25 (HD)], [25 (SD)], [50 (HD)], or
[50 (SD)] is selected in System Menu No. 25
(SYSTEM FREQ) and [VAUX] is selected, the

TC OUT ADV
For selecting the processing to align the phase
of the time code which is output from the TIME
CODE OUT connector.
Normally, the time code which is output from the
TIME CODE OUT connector is aligned with the
output video and audio. If so required by the
connection with an external component or for some
other reason, this item makes it possible to set the
mode for aligning the phase with the input.
0000
OFF
The phase alignment processing is not con-
ducted. The time code which is output from the
TIME CODE OUT connector is aligned with the
output video and audio.
0001
EDIT
During playback when an editing mode has been
selected and during editing, the time code which
is output from the TIME CODE OUT connector is
aligned with the input video and audio. In all
other modes, it is aligned with the output video
and audio.

while the INPUT CHECK key is held down.
0001
LATCH
When the INPUT CHECK key is pressed, the
INPUT CHECK mode is established; even when
it is released, the mode remains unchanged.
