when the camera is running.
No Time code symbol (TC) Time code is off.
Time code symbol blinks Time code was last set or
in standby external synchronization
was last carried out over 8 hours ago.
Note:
If the last setting or synchronization was
over 8 hours ago time code can still be
recorded for test purposes.
Time code symbol blinks Time code is not beeing recorded on the

TC-Warnings
A TC warning is displayed firstly as a blinking TC symbol
in the camera display. If the warning signal volume on the
camera is set to 1 or higher, an acoustic tone will also sound
in the same rhythm as the blinking of the symbol when the
camera is in standby.
The acoustic warning can be switched off as follows:
• Remedy the cause of the warning.
• Switch off time code.
• Set the warning tone volume to 0 (see under
Switching
On and Off the Warning Signal for Asynchronous
Running and the Acoustic TC-Warning, Chapter 9).
• By briefly depressing the “SET”-button in Mode 1 of
the display, the acoustic warning can be suppressed
for 15 minutes.
• The acoustic TC-warning is automatically switched off
as long as the camera is running. After stopping the
camera, the warning tone will begin to sound again in
standby after approx. 3 seconds.
Additionally, the camera is capable of displaying one or
several more detailed warnings in hexadecimal form.
Change to display Mode 5 (user bits) with the “MODE”-
button and depress the “SEL”-button.
In the upper line four figures or letters will be shown.
Their meaning can be looked up in the following table. If
there is no warning, the upper line displays 00:00.
Example: The message 00:03 indicates two warnings:
• error in external synchronization and
• TC is switched on but not set
Both warnings can be remedied by external synchronization
or by setting TC via the CCU-1.
