Reference Manual ATOM one SSM500
15 SDI Time code
15.1 timecode <hour> <minute> <second>
The SDI signal has an embedded time code. Since ATOM one has no real time clock, the
time code can be set manually.
Sets SDI time code.
Example:
# get current time code
timecode
# system dumps:
timecode 0 57 24
OK
# set sdi time code to 2h 10m 53s
timecode 2 10 53
# system acknowledges:
OK
15.2 timecode_hold <flag>
This command can be used to hold the timecode on the SDI output. This can be used to
trigger recording in an external flash recorder. Note that the timecode will continue to run in
the camera, this means as soon as hold is released the SDI timecode will jump to the
current value.
Flag
Timecode Hold
0
Normal operation, SDI timecode is running
1
