> User bits mode sub-menu:
Defines the allocation of the user bits of the Time Code
• Date
• Date auto inc.
• Free
• Free auto inc.
The mention auto inc. means that the counter formed by the two last digits is
incremented by each new START ID writing.
> Input format and Output format sub-menus:
Allow to define the incoming and outgoing Time Code formats:
• 30 non-drop
• 30 drop
• 24
• 25
• 29.97 non-drop
• 29.97 drop
Note: The option Auto detect is not implemented yet.
> Input source sub-menu:
Allows to set the source of incoming Time Code. To select the internal generator's
Time Code, activate the Internal option.
External no jam and Ext. jam sync are two useful options when the Time Code
used is external (TC XLR or Aaton sockets) with this difference: If the external Time
Code flow is interrupted (cable disconnected, for ex.) the Time Code freezes if the
option External no jam has been selected, it gets regenerated by the internal
generator when Ext. jam sync has been chosen.
> Output source sub-menu:
Allows to set the source of outgoing Time Code, i.e. the Time Code present on the
TC output sockets and on the display. There are two choices: The Time Code
recorded on tape (Tape) or the one produced by the internal generator (Internal)
So that the Record run mode can work, Internal has to be selected in
the Output source sub-menu below.
