The time code generator outputs the time addresses and the user data in various time code
formats: as LTC , as D-VITC , as ancillary data packets of type ATC_LTC and/or ATC_VITC .
The data of the generator can be visibly inserted in video windows.
The following methods of operating are provided for the time code generator:
•
REAL – TIME : Using a real – time reference, the time information of the generated time
code corresponds to a local time zone. The user data may transport the date.
• FREE : The time code generator counts the time continuously without any time jumps.
This is an additional service for the real – time feature helping to shift a legal time jump
in the time code.
•
JAM SYNC : The time code generator accepts data from the time code reader.
• START : Preset values can be entered from which the time code generator starts to
count. A start – stop operation is possible: START/STOP via GPIO or function key.
The operating modes can be switched by a programmed function key, or a programmed
GPIO , or clicking a button at the “Generate” page of a configuration tool:
