This section describes useful functions that can be used 
during playback. 
Displaying information (data codes) 
recorded on a tape 
If you record on a tape using a Sony digital HD video 
camera recorder or digital camcorder, the recording 
information (data codes) is recorded on the tape.
During playback, you can check the recording date and 
time from the data codes by displaying this information 
on the unit. Each time you press the DATA CODE 
button on the Remote Commander, the display switches 
between no data code display and recording date/time 
display. Also, you can change the display by setting 
[DATA CODE] in the [DISPLAY SET] menu. 
For details, see “DATA CODE” on page 75. 
• If data codes were not recorded, “- - -” appears instead. 
• The unit cannot record or play back camera data.
