↑ Slave Jam Master Ch
“ Slave ” , “ Jam ” , and “ Master ” options are only available in C-Jam mode and with Ch not set to “Off”
“ Slave ” : is the default operation and on power cycling in C-Jam it will fall back to this. If the unit once
had been jammed from a “Master” and initiated the dynamic C-Jam tune this wi ll be indicated by “S” on
the main screen lower right. If that master is lost but C- Jam tune is still in operation “S” will alter to “(S)”.
Keep this mode for all units but the dedicated C-Jam master.
“ Jam ” fires off a One-Time-Jam burst, used best when only setting the free running TC generator is
required. Quite similar to the classic jam using a cable, you will need to re-jam units after battery
change or power cycle. As the unit will fall back to the
“Slave” mode after this this is rather an action
than a setting.
“ Master ” : The unit will resend timecode pulses every couple of seconds. “ Slaves ” will automatically
rejam their generator if not set and dynamically adjust their clock reference to best match the speed of
the
“Master” . Thus, an accuracy window of 10us is achieved, reflecting synchronicity on video line level.
After replacing the batteries on either slave it will automatically jam to the set TC.
Note: Sending out single or continuous jams requires the generator to be set. If not done so
already you will be prompted to either accept the current TC (additionally to edit to preference
for Master) before sending out the jam. Also, as just one unit is allowed as Master within ACN,
enabling will be blocked with an according message if the unit receives broadcasts from another
Master. Master is exclusive to C-Jam mode, switching to TRX or Reader will immediately stop C-
Jam broadcasts.

Select ACN channel: Off

Select the RF channels 11 through 26 according to IEEE 802.15.4 (see Appendix for details). Although
ACN is not generating any RF signal when not triggered by a C-Jam Master or TX, radio can be
completely defeated for autonomous generator mode by selecting “Off”. This will hide all other ACN
parameters until an active channel has been reassigned.
Note: in general it should not be necessary to make adjustments. Exceeding the preselected
channel 18 is not used by wireless focus remotes using the same protocol, the ACN strictly
follows the IEEE 802.15.4 standard which allows for friendly coexistence of multiple systems even
on the same carrier. The ACN cannot cause interference with a wireless remote control or other
radio.
