ABSTRACT
User bits The user bits setting, which looks remarkably like time code on the camera display, is quite different from time code in that the figures in it never change unless you change them. You can set four two-digit numbers and providing you have agreed a form of display with the editing suite you can use them to send, on the tape, information such as camera number, roll number, date, etc. The user bits are set in much the same way as the time code and should always be set first.
