Setting the time data
When the user’s bit and time code are both to be
used, the user’s bit is set first.
If the time code is set first, the time code generator
will stop while the user’s bit is being set so that the
time code setting will be off.
The time code setting range extends from 00:00:00:00
to 23:59:59:29.
Setting the user’s bit enables information such as
memos (dates, times) up to 8 digits in hexadecimal
notation to be recorded on the sub code track.
User’s bit memory function
The user’s bit settings (except for the actual time) are
automatically saved in the memory and retained even
after the power is turned off.
