When slaved to an analog tape machine it is critical that RADAR
24 follow any deviation in speed introduced
by the tape transport. In this scenario the incoming time code is smoothed and averaged to create a stable
reference signal for the internal clock of the RADAR
24. Because the internal clock will constantly match the
incoming clock source in this configuration, RADAR
24 will follow the master exactly, even if you use vari-
speed!
In other applications where all the devices in a system are referenced to video sync (AKA black burst or
house sync), RADAR
24 can be referenced to video sync directly or to a word clock generator that is in turn
referenced to the video sync source. A system wide sync source is critical for video and film production and
post-production work because it creates a known relationship between the positional time code and the
timing information present in the video signal.

Networking
The RADAR
24 ships with a 10/100 Base T Ethernet card. With the appropriate hardware and properly
configured software RADAR
24 can backup, restore, export and import files using an Ethernet connection
to a CIFS (Windows, Unix, OS X with CIFS server) server or by using a specially wired crossover cable for a
connection with a personal computer.
Networking is a very BIG topic and is far beyond the scope of this manual. Our goal is to get your
RADAR
24 configured so that it can be integrated into an existing network or connected to a personal
computer using peer-to-peer. For instructions on how to transfer files see O

DISCLAIMER: iZ Technology cannot offer advice on networking and security issues that
do not directly pertain to the RADAR
24 system. For further assistance please consult a
networking professional or make use of the extensive resource materials available on
the Internet.
ENTERING THE SERVER OR PEER-TO-PEER NETWORK INFORMATION
Before RADAR
24
can connect via Ethernet it must be configured with information about the system it will
be connecting to. For instructions on how to transfer files please refer to O
