3.5.2. Setting the ATC Reader Packet Type.
ATC RDR TYPE
The SMPTE RP188 recommended practice for Ancillary Timecode
(ATC) identifies two types of ATC packets. The
ATC RDR TYPE
menu
item is used to select whether the ATC reader will read LTC or VITC or
both types of ancillary timecode packets. A fourth choice allows the
HD9010TM to read time and user bit information from a special VANC
packet inserted by the generator of another HD9010TM.
Select
Atc rdr:ltc
to read LTC type ATC packets.
Select
Atc rdr:vitc
to read VITC type ATC packets.
Select
Atc rdr:ltc=vitc (default)
to read either LTC or VITC type ATC
packets. The HD9010TM will read whichever type is present giving
priority to none.
Select
Atc rdr:ltc>vitc
to read either LTC or VITC type ATC packets.
The HD9010TM will give priority to reading ltc packets and in their
absence fallback to vitc packets.
Select
Atc rdr:ltc<vitc
to read either LTC or VITC type ATC packets.
The HD9010TM will give priority to reading vitc packets and in their
absence fallback to ltc packets.
Select
Atc rdr:vanc
to read the special VANC data packets inserted by
another HD9010TM.
