Time code regeneration
When the <TCG> switch is set to <R-RUN>, the time code currently recorded to the last frame of the last clip (clip with the newest recording date and
time) recorded to the P2 card can be read and recorded. If the P2 card is removed or inserted or a card to be recorded is changed by the [SLOT SEL]
function of the <USER> button while [REGEN] is selected in the main menu → [REC/PB] → [TC/UB] → [FIRST REC TC], the time code is carried over
and recorded to the clip last recorded on the P2 card that was to be recorded to. If there are no recorded clips, the time code is recorded from the TC
generator value on the camera.
Regeneration by the recording check function
When [PRESET] is set in the main menu → [REC/PB] → [TC/UB] → [FIRST REC TC], or after the time code is set or reset, or the time code is switched
from free run to recording run, the time code can be regenerated to the last time code of the clip recorded to the P2 card. To perform this operation, set
[REC CHECK] in the main menu → [CAMERA] → [SW MODE] → [RET SW], and set [ON] in the main menu → [REC/PB] → [TC/UB] → [REC CHECK
REGEN], respectively.
