1) Drop frame mode
In order to compensate for differences between time
code values from the time code generator and the actual
time that occurs when the field frequency of this unit is
29.97 Hz, the drop frame mode causes the time code
generator to omit the first two frames (frame 00 and 01)
in each minute except the tenth.

4-3-4 Selecting the Time Code
Running Mode (RUN MODE)
Press the [F8] (RUN MODE) button to select the time
code running mode.
free: The time code advances when the power is on
regardless of the VTR's operation mode.
rec: The time code advances only during recording.
4-3-5 Selecting the Drop Frame
Mode (DF/NDF)
Press the [F9] (DF/NDF) button to select the running
mode for the CTL counter and the time code generator.
1)
DF: Drop frame mode
NDF: Non-drop frame mode
auto: The unit switches to drop frame mode when the
field frequency is 29.97 Hz, and switches to non-
drop frame mode when the field frequency is
30 Hz.
Note
• This setting is only active when the frame frequency
of the unit is 29.97 Hz or 30 Hz.
• When the [F7] (TCG MODE) button is set to
"regene", the drop frame mode is inoperative since
the time code generator is synchronized to the
playback time code.
2) Non-drop frame mode
In this mode, drop frame mode processing is not
performed. Since there is no frame cutting, a
discrepancy of about 86 seconds occurs each day (in the
case of a field frequency of 29.97 Hz).
