Use this position tosynchronize the time code with the time ofday, or to externally lock the time code.SET: Select this position to set the time code oruser bits.R-RUN: Select this position to advance the timecode only during recording. The time codeis continuously recorded during normalrecording. But deleting clips and setting a24P/24PA frame rate to continue recording ofclips that are not 24P/24PA clips may breakthe sequence of time code recording. NOTEAlways use the CURSOR and SET buttons to set the timecode and user bits.
