• Source Priority

As described here, provides 4-level prioritization of timecode format
choices from choices shown to the left.

Source Priority 1 thru Source Priority 4 select the preferred format to be
used in descending order (i.e., Source Priority 2 selects the second-most
preferred format, and so on. See example below.)

• Output Status Display

Displays the current content and source being used for the timecode data
as follows:

• Output status OK (in this example, SDI VITC timecode received and

outputted).

Timecode Insertion button set to Disabled; output insertion disabled.

Note: • If timecode is not available from Source Priority selections

performed, timecode on output reverts to Free Run (internal
count) mode.

• Because the 1’s digit of the display Frames counter goes from 0 to

29, the fractional digit (along with the 1’s digit) indicates frame
count as follows:

0.0

Frame 0

0.1

Frame 1

1.0

Frame 2

1.1

Frame 3



29.1 Frame 59

• Offset Controls

Allows the current timecode count to be advanced or delayed on the
output video.

• Offset Advance or Delay selects offset advance or delay.

• Offset Field delays or advances or delays timecode by one field.

• Offset Frame delays or advances or delays timecode by up to 5

frames.

Note: Default settings are null, with both controls set at zero as shown.

In this example, SDI VITC 1st priority selection selects SDI VITC (received on SDI
input) over analog VITC (received on analog input) regardless of video input
material source to be processed by the card.

The selected timecode source is embedded on the SDI video output (in this
example, 720p) using the selected line number. In this example, if the SDI VITC
on the SDI input becomes unavailable, the card then uses the 525i analog VITC
data received on the card analog video input.

Note: If analog VITC timecode source contains 7.5 IRE of setup, make certain

Video Signal Controls –> NTSC Contains is set to 7.5 IRE of Setup. If
this is not done, analog VITC waveform may not be received and
processed by the card.
