EXTERNAL TIMECODE - 17
Version 2.00 - March, 1996 Page 161
DISPLAY This offset is added to relative time before it is displayed.
The options are OFF, ON, LED ONLY.
OFF and ON should be fairly self-explanatory. LED ONLY
applies the offset to the LED timecode display on the
DL1500’s upper panel only - the timecode display on the
external monitor does not show this offset. This is a special
requirement for in situations where film and SMPTE/EBU
equipment is being used together. In this case
SMPTE/EBU timecode can be displayed on the DL1500’s
LED timecode display and zero-based feet/frames display
can be displayed on the VGA monitor’s timecode display
(for example, the first frame of the film is at a SMPTE/EBU
time of 10 hours but, as no film footage has elapsed, the
feet/frames display on the external monitor shows 0000
feet/00 frames).
T/C RCV This is an abbreviation of TIMECODE RECEIVE OFFSET
and sets an offset that is applied to incoming timecode.
T/C GEN This is an abbreviation of TIMECODE GENERATE
OFFSET. This offset is applied to generated timecode.
NOTE: The T/C GEN offset is not applied to the timecode generator when SMPTE
REGENERATE is selected in the SYSTEM - T/CODE page. If you attempt to turn T/C GEN
on with this selection, you will receive a prompt saying:
