4-3-3 Selecting the Drop Frame
Mode (DF/NDF)
Press the [F9] (DF/NDF) button to select the running mode
for the time code after frame conversion and the CTL
counter.
1)
DF: Drop frame mode (DF is displayed.)
NDF: Non-drop frame mode
auto: The unit switches to drop frame mode when the field
frequency is 29.97 Hz or 59.94 Hz, and switches to
non-drop frame mode when the field frequency is 30
Hz or 60 Hz.
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 frame
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.
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 frame frequency of 29.97 Hz.
Note
This setting is only active when the frame frequency of the
unit is 29.97 Hz, 59.94 Hz, 30 Hz, or 60 Hz.
