Introduction
As all Ambient Clockit devices the TinyLockit provides a rock solid, highly accurate,
temperature compensated time code generator.
Except for the sync signal output, it comprises the full functionality of its big brother,
including ACN (Ambient Clockit Network) support, metadata transfer and logging.
These network capabilities also allow the TinyLockit to be a fully functional,
generator buffered time code transceiver. This provides the stability of an Ambient
Lockit Generator with the flexibility of a wireless TC system but without the fear of
dropouts.
In addition, it also offers most features of the former ALL601, such as variable time
code output level for recording TC on audio track and time code conversion between
LTC and MTC so it serves for synchronizing an audio workstation or converting
playback MIDI time code to LTC.
The second Lemo connector is used for TC or communications and can be configured
as USB, RS232, GP I/O or switch.
As known from the ACL 204, the user interface is easy and intuitive to use.
Due to its smaller form factor the ACN-TL is especially suitable for applications on
small cameras, but also on cameras or in setups where a sync signal is not required, it
is a handy solution. Thanks to the machined, pearl blasted and anodized aluminum
body the TinyLockit can easily withstand the roughest production conditions.
