67Adjustments and Settings for Recording: Setting Time DataAdjustments and Settings for RecordingThe unit’s internal time code generator can be locked to anexternal generator. In addition, the external time codegenerator can be locked to the unit’s internal generator.As the figure shows, connect both the reference video signaland reference time code.Example 1: When locking onto an external signala. Reference time codeb. Reference video signal¡NoteIn place of the HD Y reference signal, composite videosignals can be input as the reference video signal.Example 2: When connecting a multiple number of unitsand using one of them as the reference unitc. MON OUT (VBS)¡NoteThe system can be configured with multiple units by openingthe screen from the SYSTEM SETTING pageand setting the GL PHASE item to the connector using menuoperations.The phase of the time code can correspond to the VBSoutput signals of the MON OUT connector.However, the same value should commonly be set to the GLPHASE for all cameras. If different values coexist in thesystem, the shooting timing may not correspond to eachother.Note that when the unit is in the 1080-23.98PsF or 1080-24PsF modes, it is not possible to lock the time code usingthe VBS connection with one unit as a reference unit in themanner shown in Example 2. When using these modes,connect the unit in the manner shown in Example 4 andExample 6.Externally Locking the Time CodeExample of connections for external lockingGENLOCK INTC INabGENLOCK INTC INTC OUTGENLOCK INTC INTC OUTTC OUTcccReference unitTo the next cameraReference video signal Setting of GL PHASEMON OUT (VBS) COMPOSITSetting of GL PHASEItem Variablerange RemarksGL PHASE HD SDICOMPOSITFor selecting the output signals that lockphases to the signals that are input in theGENLOCK IN connector.HD SDI:For locking the HD SDI signalsto the GENLOCK input.For the down converter outputsignals, the start position of thevideo delays by about 90 lines.COMPOSIT:For locking the down converteroutput signals to the GENLOCKinput.For the HD SDI output signals,the start position of the videogains by about 90 lines.Note, however, that in 1080-23.98PsF mode and 1080-24PsF mode, the phase islocked to HD SDI even if“COMPOSIT” has beenselected.
