VARICAMS: Panasonic Varicam LT question Frequency vs Frame Rate

Hello Group!

I just bought a Panasonic Varicam LT and was reaching out to see if someone would answer a quick question? I'm used to shooting with the S1H where the Frequency is already set NTSC. When I set the Varicam frequency to 59.94 for NTSC, it changes the FPS to shoot in 59.94, and I'm wanting to shoot 23.98 FPS, so, do I need to keep it at 59.94 or can I change both to 23.98? When I switch the frequency to 59.94 and the FPS to 24, however still is shooting 59.94, so It is confusing. Looking to see if I really need to set the Frequency at 59.94 always, or can I just set both frequency and FPS to 23.98.

Thank you very much!

Tony
