EXT. TIME KEY - SYNCING TO EXTERNAL TIMECODE
There is nothing very special to do for this. Assuming a suitable timecode source is
connected to either the SMPTE, VITC or BI-PHASE inputs, select the type of timecode
you wish to sync to in the main SYSTEM page using the EXT. TIME SOURCE field and
switch the EXT. TIME key on. With the EXT. TIME key switched on, when you press PLAY
on the DD1500, nothing will happen until the system receives timecode from the external
source. A momentary prompt will appear in the LCD:
Also, the EXT T/C RCV LED found to the left of the DL1500’s timecode display will flash
indicating a problem with external timecode receive.
When external timecode is being received successfully, the DD1500 will play synchronised
to that timecode and the EXT T/C RCV LED will be steadily lit. If at any time, the EXT T/C
RCV LED flickers, this indicates a problem with the external timecode such as dropout.
The DD1500 will ‘flywheel’ for a short while in the event of timecode dropout but, if the
dropout is too long, the DD1500 will stop playing.
NOTE: When you switch on the EXT. TIME key, PLAY is also engaged so that the
DD1500 will automatically play whenever timecode is received and will stop when external
timecode is stopped. However, if you specifically press the STOP key to stop playback,
you will need to press PLAY again for it to follow external timecode.
