Recording
Timecode is recorded using the Timecode window. The timecode and corresponding event steps are stored in a
Timecode Script which can be viewed and edited using the Timecode Scripts window (refer to next page). Unless a
different script number is selected in the window, the script will be stored as Number 1 by default. To record timecode
into a script other than 1, select its number at the Timecode Scripts window.
Record Timecode:
Step 1. At Operation menu, select Time Code . Timecode window will open.
Step 2. Select External or Internal .
Step 3. Select a frame rate.
Step 4. Click record button to begin timed recording. Clock will start counting.
Step 5. Execute cues.
Step 6. Click stop button.
Timecode Scripts Window
The content of timecode scripts can be viewed and edited in the Timecode Scripts window. The Delete, Replace,
Punch In, and Insert features allow editing so that an entire script does not have to be re-recorded in order to make a
change. The Time column may also be edited.
To allow creation of multiple scripts, only the selected script will be run.
Any action may change the times of all cues...
+
If a step is deleted, all the following cue times will change.
+
If a step is added, all the following cue times will change.
+
If the [Record] button is pressed while timecode is running, all the times will change (all steps may be deleted).
+
It is best to edit a time within the time range that it already contains.
+
Timecode will only be visible if the [Play] or ]Record] buttons are pressed. If the signal is expected from an
external source then 'Wait' will be displayed.
+
To insert a step, select a step click "insert" icon and press a single action to be added. To save action, use
[Update] [Macro] [Enter] sequence.
+
The Punch In feature bases the new steps/events on the previous timecode and does not record based on
external timecode. Therefore, it may be necessary to edit the times manually once the new section is added.
