On default the physical output does not supply a signal if the generator has not been set (flashing red
every 2 seconds). This is most useful to leave the Lockit connected to your audio recorder with a
bidirectional cable and jam it to time of day from the recorder after start up and then seamlessly
be
coming the timecode source. Also, while one won’t necessarily notice a non
-synced TC a non-present
TC will give you a clear warning on the targets display for immediate indication of an
incomplete/incorrect configuration.
Note: Inconsistent TC is as good or bad as no TC at all. There is practically no use in having a
unit supplying a non-synchronized timecode.
Offset
Offset: +/-00.00
Shifts the TC output up to +/- 10 frames in .05 increments on physical outputs and also LED display on
ACN-LS LockitSlate against the generator. This allows for compensation of frame processing delay on
cameras and TC offset to 3
rd
party equipment (e.g. delayed TC out from audio track on playback).

: Userbits will be continuously jammed. This will happen on TC Jam but also on change of user
bits only without the TC generator being interrupted. This can e.g. be used to increment scene/take on
the fly or insert the date from an ACN master.
Note: Update will occur with up to 6 seconds delay on the next C-Jam broadcast.

:
Use this mode to apply fixed userbits eg. a unit ID. On selecting you can load the 8 userbit slots
with hex-code values 0-F.
Note: selecting manual userbits will automatically enable “Show” for display underneath the
timecode.
