Note
If you don’t wish to use a SMPTE Preroll, make the Preroll Time equal to
the Start Time.

Start Time – When SMPTE is enabled, the SMPTE Machine defaults
timecode to the Preroll Time (unless it has been modified by a
SetSMPTETime
event). If SMPTE is configured to loop at the End Time,
however, it will be set back at the Start Time, not the Preroll Time.

End Time
– The SMPTE Machine stops generating SMPTE timecode at
this time if it is configured to
Stop at End Time
.

SMPTE End Behavior
– When SMPTE is started, it is set to the Preroll
Time. When SMPTE reaches the End Time, it can either stop or loop. If
the SMPTE Machine is configured to
Loop at End Time , SMPTE will be
set back to the Start Time every time it reaches the End Time. If the
SMPTE Machine is configured to
Stop at End Time , SMPTE will stop
immediately at the End Time.

Mute SMPTE When Stopped – Configures the SMPTE Machine to
mute its SMPTE output when it has stopped generating timecode.

Start Button Restarts SMPTE Even While Running – Configures
the SMPTE Machine to restart SMPTE from the Preroll Time when the
Start button is pushed.
