mode or select �R-RUN� to advance it in the rec-run

To regenerate the time code as the value on the
tape and record continuously
When the TCG switch is constantly set to R-RUN position,
the time code is regenerated as the time code value on the
tape that was already recorded when starting the recording
on the tape, so that the time code is recorded continuously.
(When the FIRST REC TC item is set to the REGEN)
<Notes>
O If the TCG switch is set to the SET or F-RUN position
before recording, the recording starts with the time code
of the set value when starting the recording regardless of
the value on the tape.
O After recording once, the unit returns to the state where
the time code is regenerated as the value on the tape.
O When the power is turned off, the unit returns to the state
where the time code is regenerated as the value on the
tape. (When the TCG SET HOLD item is set to the OFF)
O When the TCG switch is set to the SET or the F-RUN
position once and then to R-RUN, the unit returns to the
state where the time code is regenerated as the value on
the tape by executing the jump function. For details, refer
to �3-3 Scene-to-scene continuity.�
Time code when the battery is replaced
The backup function works even when the battery is
replaced, and the time code generator continues to operate
for a prolonged duration (approx. 1 year).
<Note>
If the POWER switch is turned on, then off, and then on
again, the free-run time code backup accuracy is
approximately ?2 frames.
