10. TIME CODE OPERATION
E-66
The GY-DV5000 also incorporates a time code reader. Therefore, when the unit enters record mode from record-standby mode, it
can read the time code data recorded on the tape and record time codes in continuation of the existing data. The recorded users
bit data are identical to the users bit data recorded on tape.
However, approximately ±1-frame variations may occur in scene accuracy.
To enable this function, set the time code related switches as follows before starting recording.

be displayed correctly by DV components for general

display longer time codes.
