< UMID SET/INFO >--OWNER--COUNTRY :***ORGANIZATION :****# USER :******DEVICE NODE**Chapter 4 Adjustments and settings for recording36O When the external lock operation is performed, the timecode is instantly locked to the external time code, and thesame value as the external code value appears on thecounter display. Do not set the unit to the recording modeduring the few seconds it takes for the sync generator tostabilize.O The images may be disrupted during the instant whenexternal locking is performed. This happens because the5-frame period is adjusted, and it does not mean that theunit is malfunctioning.Concerning the user bit setting during external lockWhen the unit’s time code is externally locked, only the timedata is locked to the time data of the time code supplied fromthe external source. This means that the user bits can be setseparately for each component.When the screen is opened from the VTR menupage and EXT is selected as the UB MODE item setting byperforming menu operations, the user bits can also be lockedto the user bits of the time code supplied from the externalsource.To release the external lockFirst stop supplying the external time code, and set the TCGswitch to R-RUN.When switching the power from the battery to anexternal power supply while the time code isexternally lockedIn order to ensure the continuity of the time code generator’spower, connect the external power supply to the DC INconnector, and then remove the battery pack. If the batterypack is removed first, no guarantees can be made for thecontinuity of the external locking of the time code.Gen-locking of the camera unit while the time codeis externally lockedWhile the time code is externally locked, the camera unit isgen-locked by the reference video signal which is supplied tothe GEN LOCK IN connector.O When the signal from the unit’s HD SDI connector is to beused as the reference video signal, first set the OUTPUTSEL switch on the side panel to the CAM position.O It takes time to synchronize GEN LOCK. Please do notrecord or do any other operations until synchronization isfinished.4-5-5 Setting the UMID informationThis unit supports metadata UMIDs. As the UMID data, theuser must first set the name of his or her country (with 3 orfewer characters), the name of the company or organization(with 4 or fewer characters), and the user name (with 4 orfewer characters). Input the name of the country based on theCountry Codes (21) stipulated under the ISO 3166 standard.Given here as an example is the procedure for inputting theuser name.21 Examples:CHN for China, USA for United States, CAN for Canada, and JPN for Japan1 Open the screen from the VTR menupage by performing a menu operation.2 Turn the JOG dial button to move the arrow (cursor) tothe “USER” item.7 When the characters have been input, turn the JOG dialbutton to move the arrow (cursor) to the “:” position.8 When the JOG dial button is pressed, the arrow (cursor)returns to the “USER” item.9 Press the MENU button to exit the menu operations.5 Press the JOG dial button to enter the character.6 Turn the JOG dial button to move the arrow (cursor) tothe next position (right), and repeat steps 4 and 5 to setthe characters.4 Press the JOG dial button again and turn it until thecharacter to be set is displayed.When the button is turned, the character displayed isswitched in the following sequence:Space: ∑7letters: A—Z7numbers: 0—97symbols: ’, >, <, /, –Only spaces and letters can be selected for theCOUNTRY item. This does not apply to other items.3 When the JOG dial button is pressed, the arrow (cursor)moves to the USER input area, and the input mode isestablished.
