Notes on the video equipment with the RC time code
recording function
When you use the video equipment with the RC time code
recording function for the player, observe the following:—
¢ To perform editing using the RC time code, rewriting the
time code from the beginning to the end of the tape is
recommended. Otherwise accurate editing by designating
the IN point and OUT point by frame is not possible.
* The RC time code is not compatible with the time code of
products for institutional use or that of other
manufacturers. When editing the tape with a time code
other than the RC time code, rewrite the RC time code in
the tape first.
Note on operation
During the editing operation, wait for about 1 second
between operating each button. This could help to avoid
errors.
