Set
Sets the generator timecode. To edit
hh:mm:ss:ff
successively change the blinking value, press to
confirm, and proceed. TC generator will start on from selected value after confirmation, so you can
exactly trigger a certain TC start. After confirming the edited timecode you can also start a C-Jam
Master if desired.
Jam
Auto
Man
Determines how the generator can be jammed.
“
Auto
”
:
Automatic setting, suitable for most applications. With video sync disabled, the unit will initially
jam timecode value and frame rate form source. When video sync is activated, frame rate will be locked
and only timecode will be jammed from compatible frame rates. This method effectively prevents
misadjusting the unit during operation while bringing maximum of ease on initial configuration.
When the generator has been jammed already, applying external timecode will display the aberration
of the 2 devices with the option to manually force a full rejam or timecode value only.
“
Man
”
:
Basically the same behavior as “Auto” with video sync enabled, the frame rate will be lo
cked
and only compatible frame rates are accepted for jam over ACN. Cable jam always requires
confirmation to jam only TC, TC and frame rate or quit.
Note: If the mode prohibits
a change of frame rate an “X” will be displayed before the frame rate
indicating compatible frame rates allowed for jam. On jamming with a coherent FPS the “X” will
disappear.

This menu configures the TC output signal. In Standard view Output is only available on TinyLockit and
will directly access the Level setting.
Level
Select TC level:
0
/-3/--6/-9/-12/-15/-18/-21/-24/-27/-30/-33/-36/-42 dB
Only available on TinyLockit
Adjusts TC level on the “TC” socket in
-3dB steps from
0
to
-36dB
plus
-42dB
. Useful when recording
timecode to audio tracks of DSLRs or non-TC capable recorders with mic sensitivity.
Note: a reduced level will prevent a successful jam of regular timecode devices.
