Items Relating to the Pulldown Control (Nos. A01 to ...)
Item number Setting FunctionItem
A01 PD TIME CODE
DISPLAY
[off]
on
Sets whether or not to display the pulldown time code on the
time code display area.
off: Does not display the pulldown time code.
on: Displays the pulldown time code.
A02 PD PRESET
FRAME MODE
[24F FRAME MODE]
30F FRAME MODE
Selects the time code to be preset. The A frame of the
pulldown sequence can be preset.
24F FRAME MODE: The 24 frames time code is preset.
30F FRAME MODE: The 30 frames time code is preset.
A03 FC
SUPERIMPOSED
CHARACTER
[off]
on
Specifies whether or not to superimpose time data and
operating status information on the signal output from the
FORMAT CONV. OUT connector.
off: No information is superimposed.
on: Information is superimposed.
A04
PD DF/NDF
SELECT
[drop frame]
non-drop frame
auto
Selects the running mode for the pulldown time code to be
preset.
drop frame: Drop frame mode
non-drop frame: Non-drop frame mode
auto: The unit switches the running mode (DF/NDF)
automatically according to the frame frequency of the
unit. When the frame frequency is 23.98 Hz, the unit
switches to the drop frame mode and switches to the
non-drop frame mode when it is 24 Hz.
A05
PD EXT SD REF
LOCK MODE
[off]
lock1
lock2
When the operating frequency is set to 23.98PsF, specifies
whether or not the pulldown output signal and down-
converted output signal are synchronized with the reference
signal by the REF. INPUT 2 connector.
off: The pulldown output signal and down-converted output
signal are not synchronized with the reference signal by
the REF. INPUT. 2 connector.
lock1: The pulldown output signal and down-converted
output signal are synchronized with the reference signal
by the REF. INPUT 2 connector.
lock2: The pulldown output signal and down-converted
output signal are synchronized with the reference signal
by the REF. INPUT 2 connector. When the PB/EE
mode is selected, the amount of delay on the A frame of
the pulldown output signal for the A frame of the main
video signal is fixed to 2 frames (59.94i).
Notes
•A warning message appears when the HD reference
signal and REF. INPUT 2 reference signal are not input or
not synchronized.
• “lock1” and “lock2” are effective only when the operation
mode of this unit is set to 23.98/24PsF.
• When editing in 23.98/24PsF mode, with this unit as the
recorder and with “lock2” selected, phase synchronization
may not be achieved within 5 seconds. Also, edit In points
may be out of alignment. In these cases, select “off”.
