TC backup
Menu / Special / TC backup
This feature allows user to set up the time for which time code will continue to run even
after removal of main battery. Internal backup battery is installed in WTCS-1 for this
purpose and it allows to run time code for up to 3 hours.
5 minutes … 3 hours
TC backup time can be set from 5 minutes to 3 hours in
several steps
Display functionality and wireless connectivity are both suppressed in TC backup
mode, when main batteries are removed.
8.4.8
GPS time TC –
generation time code with UTC time of GPS signal
Menu / Special / GPS time TC
This function allows to generate accurate time code with UTC time and number of
frames according to setting Time code / Frame rate. This is really useful for example for
synchronization of two camcorders on different places in the world.
Synchronize
It starts synchronization with UTC time (only with BETSO GPS module)
Exit
It cancels synchronization and goes back to main menu
If there is no GPS signal or no GPS module connected to WTCS-1 and
„Synchronize“ is chosen, it won't start generation of UTC time code.
8.4.9
GPS calibration –
calibration of internal TCXO using GPS module
Menu / Special / GPS calibration
This function allows to calibrate internal TCXO using GPS signal. It means that one
second generated by WTCS-1 will last the exactly same time as accurate GPS atomic
clock based second.
