User Bits

"User Bits" refers to the 32-bit data frame within the time code signal in which users can record eight 4-
bit user data digits, such as an operator number. The User Bits contain user data digit values 0 - 9 and

current position relative to the start position.

• When menu setting SETUP - SYSTEM - FREQUENCY is set to 23.98 Hz, 24 Hz, 59-23, or 60-24, a 1-
