NOTE• When 24P or 24PA is used, the time code is adjustedevery 5 frames. It is adjusted to multiples of fourfor 24PN and to even numbers for 720/30PN. It isadjusted so that the seconds plus the frames are aneven number for 720/25PN.

NOTEWhen the POWER switch has been switched ON OFF ON, the backup accuracy of the time code in free run mode isabout ±2 frames.
