TC-Output
TC information is constantly available as 80bit LTC on
the CCU socket and in Standby also on the ACC
socket. Both outputs 5 V asymmetrical.
Through the TC-output TC-compatible equipment can be
synchronized on the set once (for 8 hours) on the
camera’s time code or constantly supplied with time
code by the camera. The camera then takes on the
master clock function.
TC-Input
The TC generator integrated in the ARRIFLEX 16SR 3
can be synchronized onto other equipment with TC
generator. An LTC signal (Longitudinal Time Code) from
any TC generator is plugged into the ACC socket. The
signal level must be higher than 500 mV
pp
. The camera
automatically takes on TC time and TC user bits. If the
LTC signal is correctly transferred the TC recording will
be automatically switched on.
• Using the MODE key switch to Mode 4 (time code
time)
• Plug the cable with the TC signal into the ACC socket.
The last two entries on the indicator show a blinking
„ec“ (external code). If the LTC signal is correctly
transferred the indication „cc“ (correct code) appears
for approx. 10 second before the indicator on the
generator frame rate switches back.
