1.3.11 Setting the generator
There are three settings of the DIP-switches in which the generator is active.
A Generator Mode
B Generator/ RTC Mode
C Reader/ Generator Mode
In Generator Mode
On power-up the generator starts counting from 00.00.00.00 .and the
userbits are 00.00.00.00. The Red LED flashes.
Go to set mode. (See 2.3)
Set user bits as above and move cursor to time frame.
Set time value and verify frame rate in last 2 digit positions.
To LOAD press both buttons simultaneously till display runs.
Userbits can be loaded without changing time by selecting the
userbits and loading with the cursor in the userbit display.
In Generator / RTC Mode
On power-up the generator is loaded with the RTC time and date
values. The Green LED flashes.
The frame rate is as selected by the DIP-switches.
The values entered by the RTC will be overridden by a manual set as
above or by jamming from Ext TC.
In Reader / Generator Mode
The generator cannot be loaded in the Reader/Generator mode.
Select Generator Mode, then load the generator and change the DIP-
switches back to Reader/Generator Mode. (DIP-switch pos 4.5. goes
from Off. Off to On. Off)
When re-jamming generator change DIP-switches to generator mode,
re-jam and change DIP-switches back to Reader/Generator.
Note: We recommend that the slate is used as master in this mode. It is easier to re-
jam the camera and recorder than changing the slate’s DIP-switches each time.
