APPENDIX (Operation manual for the recorder with the Model 8345 TC/SYNC card installed)
The Model 8345 is a TC/SYNC card designed as an
option for digital multitrack recorders.
By installing the TC/SYNC card into the recorder,
the recorder can synchronize to external LTC or
video signal, as well as an external word clock. So
you can use the recorder synchronized with video
machines in video post production studios where
the synchronization between audio and video is indispensable, or make digital sound recordings in a
system using a digital mixing console.
By installing the Model 8345 into the recorder, the
following SETUP menus and GEN setup function are
added. These SETUP menus are used when the recorder is synchronized to an external LTC or locked
to a video signal.
1. SETUP mode “Ref. TC ?” menu
This menu selects the reference time code used as a master time code for the recorder.
The reference time code can be selected between MTC
(MIDI time code) and LTC according to the incoming time
code. The default setting after formatting a disk is “LTC”.
2. SETUP mode “Clock Sel ?” menu
This menu selects the reference clock of the recorder with
the 8345.
If the 8345 is not installed, you can select the reference
clock from “Int”, “Auto” and “Word”.
If the 8345 is installed, “Video” also can be the reference
clock in addition to the three options above.
3. SETUP mode “Sync Preset ?” menu
This menu is effective when the recorder with the 8345
installed is used in sync with a digital mixing console.
You can select from some preset options according to your
system to get the best synchronization performance.
4. SETUP mode “Virtual LTC ?” menu
This menu selects whether recording/playback of the virtual LTC is enabled or disabled. The default setting is
[Ena.] (Enabled).
5. SETUP mode “Offset Disp ?” menu
This menu selects whether or not displaying the real offset between the incoming reference time code (LTC or MTC)
and the displayed MTC (output LTC).
The real offset is displayed instead of REMAIN when displaying the MTC.
6. GENERATOR setup functions
The GENERATOR setup functions allows recording/erasing an external or internal (generator) time code, forcejamming to external time code, setting the LTC output,
and setting the chase offset value between incoming time
code and the MTC.

Time code that is continuous with the time
code previously recorded will be recorded.
This mode is also useful to re-record a discontinuous time code.
Time code generated by the internal generator will be recorded.
External time code will be recorded.
Time code generated by the internal generator will be recorded from the current
time of the recorder's internal clock.
Function
<CAUTION>
The 8345 does not record all time code information. It
records only the ABS time at the recording start point
and the time code offset value. Therefore, if you record
discontinuous time code in the middle, it cannot recognize it. Also note that because the user's bit at the recording start point is maintained, the 8345 cannot recognize user's bit change in the middle.
2. Use the [JOG] dial to display the desired
recording mode.
You can choose from 4 recording modes available.
<CAUTION>
When you create a new program using the program select function, the LTC with the same MTC offset (which
you can see in the [MTC offset?] menu of the Setup mode)
as the current program is recorded in the new program.
Therefore, if you use the same LTC with the new program, you do not need to re-record LTC.
1. Recording/playback of external or internally generated time code
2. Force jam to external time code
3. Outputting the internally generated or recorded time code
4. Setting of the chase offset between external time code and MTC
1. Press the [SETUP] key while holding down the
[SHIFT] key.
The recorder enters the Generator Setup mode in which
the following menus are available. The display will show
“TC Gen.?Rec Run” (the default) when you first select
the Generator Setup mode. However, from the second
time, the menu selected last time will appear.
By rotating the [JOG] dial, the menus of the Generator
Setup mode appear one after the other.
1. Select “TC Gen.? Rec Run” of the Generator
Setup mode and press the [EXECUTE/YES] key.
The recording mode currently selected starts flashing,
showing that you are now ready to select the desired
recording mode.
3.Press the [EXECUTE/YES] key after selecting the
recording mode.

<How to record time code>
After setting the time code recording mode described above, record timecode by the following
procedure.
1.Press the [EDIT] key while holding down the [SHIFT]
key to turn TC READY on (the TC READY indicator
will flash).
2.Press the [PLAY] button while holding down the
[RECORD] button (the TC READY indicator will light).
Unlike audio signal recording, you do not need
to arm a track for time code.
Also note that recording time code does not consume the hard disk space.
To erase all the time code information, see "Erasing the recorded timecode" described later.
2. Use the [SHUTTLE] dial to move the editing point
(which is flashing), and use the [JOG] dial to set
the numeric value.
Up to 23h59m59s**f (** = current frame rate - 1) can be
set.
3. After editing is completed, press the [EXECUTE/
YES] key.
2. Use the [JOG] dial to select “Repro” or “Gen.”.
The time code output from the TIME CODE OUT
terminal changes according to the setting.
1. Select “Gen TC Set” of the Generator Setup mode
and press the [EXECUTE/YES] key.
The current internal generator time code is displayed
and you are now ready to edit the time.
Editing the internal generator time code can be done
only when the timecode recording mode (described
above) is set to “Free Run”.
Force jamming to external time code can be done
only when the time code recording mode (described
above) is set to “Free Run”. Note that the following
description assumes that the 8345 is receiving external time code.
1. Select “Force JAM” (“SURE?” flashes) of the
Generator Setup mode and press the [EXECUTE/
YES] key.
The force jamming to the external time code starts and
the display shows the time code value in real-time.
If the 8345 does not receive external time code correctly,
the warning message “Void LTC In!” appears when
pressing the [EXECUTE/YES] key.
When the time code recording mode (described
above) is set to “Free Run” or “24H Run”, the 8345
can output the internal generator time code or recorded time code. Note that it does not output time
code when the time code recording mode is set to
“Rec Run” or “Ext Run”.

Editing the chase offset
2. Press the [EXECUTE/YES] key.
All the recorded time code is erased and the time code
set by the MTC offset will become effective (from ABS 0
to 24H).
You can edit the chase offset value between external time code and MTC (LTC) time.
Setting the chase offset value numerically
1. Select “Chase Offset?” (“?” flashes) of the
Generator Setup mode and press the [EXECUTE/
YES] key.
You are now ready to edit the chase offset value.
2. Use the [SHUTTLE] dial to move the editing point
(which is flashing), and use the [JOG] dial to set
the desired value.
The offset value can be set between “-12h 00m 00s **f 00sf”
and “11h 59m 59s **f 99sf” (where ** depends on the
current frame rate set by the “Frame Rate?” menu of the
Setup mode).
3. After editing is completed, press the [EXECUTE/
YES] key.
The edited value becomes valid and the display changes
to the similar one to the upper example in step 1 above
where “?” flashes.
Trimming of the chase offset value
3. Use the [JOG] dial to trim the chase offset value.
By rotating the [JOG] dial, you can trim the chase offset
value in real-time in subframe accuracy.
However, if you exit the mode after the operation above
(by skipping step 4), the offset returns to the original
value. To make the new offset value effective, do not
forget step 4 below.
4. Press the [EXECUTE/YES] key to confirm (set) the
offset value.
Erasing the recorded time code
You can erase the recorded time code only while
the recorder is stopped.
1. Select “TC All Erase?” (where “?” flashes) of the
Generator Setup mode and press the [EXECUTE/
YES] key.
“?” disappears and “SURE?” starts flashing.
1. Select “Trim?” (where “?” flashes) of the
Generator Setup mode and press the [EXECUTE/
YES] key.
The display will show something like below, and now
you are ready to trim the chase offset value.

APPENDIX (Operation manual for the recorder with the Model 8345 TC/SYNC card installed)
Chase sync to external timecode
The recorder with the Model 8345 installed can synchronize to incoming LTC by receiving the
external LTC via the recorder's TIME CODE INPUT terminal and setting the recorder's slave mode to
On.
<CAUTION>
• The recorder can chase incoming time code within
the range of continuously recorded time code.
If there is a discontinuity in the recorded time code,
when incoming time code runs across the discontinuous point, “Out of Zone!” will appear in the display
and the recorder may stop chasing. If the time code
corresponding to the incoming time code is recorded
in a different area, play the recorder to that area.
• You can locate the recorder to the beginning of a
discontinuous time code by pressing the [NEXT] or
[PREV] key while holding down the [SHIFT] key.
Connection
In this example, the recorder with the 8345 is a slave
while the VTR is a master. Feed the time code from
the VTR to the TIME CODE INPUT terminal of the
recorder with the Model 8345 to play the recorder
in sync with the VTR. Also feed the video reference
signal to both the VTR and recorder as shown above.
Recorder settings
1. Select the program to be played back.
2. Set the reference time code to “LTC” by using the
“Ref. TC?” menu of the Setup mode.
3. Set the recorder's frame rate to the same rate as
the incoming time code by the “Frame Rate ?”
menu of the Setup mode.
The “Frame Rate?” menu of the Setup mode allows you
to select the desired frame rate from 24, 25, 29nd, 29df,
30nd and 30df.
4. Set the slave mode to ON by pressing the
[EXECUTE/YES] key while holding down the
[SHIFT] key.
5. Set the desired offset value by the “MTC OFFSET?”
menu of the Setup mode.
By setting the desired offset value, the recorder will run
with the offset between the VTR and recorder.
After all settings above are completed, press [EXIT/
NO] key (or the [STOP] button) to exit the Setup
mode.
Time code display
You can monitor the incoming timecode in the
D2424 display window.
1. Press the [DISP SEL] key while holding down the
[SHIFT] key to select “MTC”.
The display will show the current MTC offset value (the
default setting is "00h59m57s00f").
2. While “MTC” is selected, press the DISP SEL key
to select the timecode display.
When the recorder is receiving LTC, the display shows
the incoming LTC while “TC IN” lights in the display.
Synchronization with the VTR
1. Start playback of the VTR.
If an offset value is set, the recorder will start playback,
chasing the timecode from the VTR with maintaining
the offset.

APPENDIX (Operation manual for the recorder with the Model 8345 TC/SYNC card installed)
Synchronization to word clock or video signal
The recorder with the Model 8345 installed can synchronize to an external sync signal such as word
clock and video composite signal.
Connection
<CAUTION>
If you use word clock as the reference clock, the sampling frequencies of the external device and the recorder must match.
Because the sampling frequency of the recorder is set
when formatting the disk, make sure of the sampling
frequency of the external device before you start working.
Connection to a digital mixing console
The recorder with the Model 8345 installed can connect to a digital mixing console and record an
adat digital signal from the console.
In this example, the recorder receives external LTC from a VTR, etc., locks to the timecode, and
returns the locking information to the digital mixing console via the digital mixer. In this process,
the digital console outputs the adat digital signal to the recorder with the timing in sync with the
receiving word clock.
See the connection example on the next page.
In this example, according to the external device,
feed video or word sync signal to the WORD INPUT
or VIDEO INPUT terminal of the recorder.
Recorder's settings
1. Select the program to be played back.
2. Set the reference clock to “Word” or “Video”
according to the incoming sync signal by using
the “Clock Sel?” menu of the Setup mode.
