Time Code Output
There are two different kinds of Time Code outputs. Either amplitude-modulated (AM) or DC-Shift.
Connectors will be labeled as either AMCODE or DCCODE.
The Time Code is a “system signal”. This means that there is one Time Code signal that affects the
whole system. In other words, if your Sonoma has multiple Time Code outputs (AM or DC) and you
change the Time Code format, then all Time Code outputs will be affected.
The Time Code output is normally IRIG-B122 (AM) or B002 (DC) when shipped from the factory
but can be changed (see below). For details on signal definition see Appendix H - Specifications .
View the Time Code Connector
On the front-panel display traverse to the Main Menu and then to CPU_I/O. This display lists any
connector on the CPU Module that has an optional I/O signal. Connectors are identified as A, B or C.
Select the particular connector (I/O-A, I/O-B or I/O-C) to see which signal is installed.
Or, you can use this console port command:

Change the Time Code Format
On the front-panel display traverse to the Main Menu and then to Sys_I/O. If a Time Code output is

choose from among several different Time Code formats.

Fixed Rate Output (10 MPPS, etc.)
