Priority
The “general reader” can receive time code only from those readers which are enabled: the
corresponding checkbox
Use
at configuration page
Functions
must be checked: LTC Read,
D-VITC Read, ANC Read (+ enable reader at configuration page ANC Read).
Now each time code can individually be switched off or can be assigned with a priority. In
case of more than one-time code the priority determines which time code will be preferred. If
you assign time codes with equal priority level, a second priority rule will be applied which
corresponds to the list above: the time code at the top of the list has the highest priority.

User
Some user data formats require a special decoding e.g. to extract a date or to decode MTD
data. This format of the user data has to be selected from the drop
–
down list.
Select
“MTD Data” if the incoming time code transports MTD data. This is the only format
which enables decoding and inserting MTD stop timer.
All other formats are used to transport a date. Decoding and inserting the correct date
requires knowing the special format of the user data. Please refer to chapter “Generate:
Basic Set
–Up of the Time Code Generator” for a detailed description of thes
e formats.
