HOG – Version 3.20
Bad Timecode tapes will have drop outs that look to the console like Timecode jumps. Increase the value in
the
Jump after /frms:
entry box to reduce the sensitivity of the console to jumps in Timecode signal
(the default value is 15 frames).
Programming Timecode into Cuelists
Timecode functionality is built into the normal cue list timing structure (wait), making it very easy to run
programmed cues to Timecode. Any cue list active on a master on the console can receive Timecode.
To setup a cuelist to use Timecode, program the cuelist as normal, but instead of using normal cue wait
times, use Timecode frame numbers:
1
Select a cue wait box.
2
Press Set .
3
Enter a Timecode number in the form hh/mm/ss.ff, eg, 1/0/10.02,
or 0/0.5 You need to use at least one slash
/ for the console to
interpret it as a Timecode value.
4
Press ENTER . The console automatically turns on the
Add
Blank First Cue
option when you use Timecode, to prevent
the cuelist from wrapping around at the end.
You don’t have to use Timecode frames for the waits of all the cues. You can mix them with normal wait
times, follows and halts. This is useful to avoid having to synchronize every cue to frame times. Instead, the
first cue can be synchronized, and then subsequent cues set with normal wait times relative to the first.
Loops can be triggered with Timecode, but do NOT put Timecode inside a loop.
Instead of entering numbers by hand, it’s possible to use the
Learn Timing
function (found in the
current cuelist window) to enter them automatically, editing manually later for fine tuning. Simply turn on
the function and press the
Go button to signal when cues are meant to execute. Only cues set to Halt (Wait
is blank) will receive values.
Playing back with Timecode
To playback cuelists under Timecode control.

Rewinding
There is no need to do anything to the master when rewinding the tape. When you start playing Timecode
again, all active masters will reposition their cuelists to the correct position in the cuelist.
Simulating Timecode
If you don’t have a Timecode source available, you can simulate Timecode in order to test /run your show.
From within the Input Panel Window, select the Timecode Source as
Simulate
. Open the Timecode
Control panel by pressing
TC Cntrls
, and press
TCode On
. This will start simulating Timecode. To
stop the Timecode, press
TCode On
again.
To reset the Timecode to one of three preset Reset values, press either
Reset 1
,
Reset 2
or
Reset 3
on the Timecode control panel (lower toolbar).
To change the Timecode start frame, use the cursor keys and the keypad to alter the respective
Reset
:
value. If Timecode was not running, start it by pressing
TCode On
.
Cues will now be triggered by Timecode.
