For this reason, the “AUDIO CH2” dial menu function (item No. 3006) must be setproperly in accordance with the signals which are to be edited.e For time code editing, set the “TC INT/EXT SELECT” dial menu function (item No. 7001) to “INT”.¢ When the 9P editing system is used, the “9P FF/REW MODE?” dial menu function (item No. 5003) can be used toselect full loading FF/REW and unloading FF/REW.¢ Set the dial menu function (item No. 1003) “TAPE PROTECTION” to "AUTO ADVANCE” only when editinglengthy scenes during AB roll editing.¢ For colour framing editing, be absolutely sure to set the SYNC selector on the editor to the NORMAL position. If,in a system in which the TBC is not connected to the player, the player is set to the search or jog mode at thistime, the playback picture on the editor will be disturbed.¢ Set the preroll time of the editing controller to “7 SEC”.¢ Use a colour framed tape in the editor unit.e Use a colour programme tape in the source unit. This tape need not be colour framed.Notes for Colour Framing* When reviewing to check the Frame Editing after editing, the source unit is in the pause mode and the editorchanges over to the internal synchronisation condition.Therefore, the Frame Lamp is off the whole time.Please check the colour framing at the Editing-In and -Out points in the review mode on the screen of the monitor.¢ The following are remarks on the Colour Framing Editing, however, they do not matter in the ordinary editingsystem.Editing via Video Input Connector1) The input video signal should be a CCIR standard PAL colour signal.2) Set the preroll time of the Controller to 7 seconds.3) The tape in the editor should be recorded by colour framing the CCIR standard PAL colour signal.4) Both tapes in the source and the editor should have continuity of the colour rotation in all editing sections.(There should not be any assemble or insert editing.)How to check whether colour framing was performed on a tape or not1) Insert the tape that you want to check into the AG-7700 and set the MENU function “Frame Servo” to“COLOUR FRAME”.2) Input the standard CCIR PAL signal via the Video Input Connector and playback the tape.3) If the Frame Lock Lamp lights up, the recording on the tape is colour framed.~ E-52-
