4.4.1.3. Selecting when the LTC Time is Synchronized to the System Time
OUTPUT
This menu item allows the user to set the time of day when the LTC output
time will be synchronized to the system time. This synchronization is
necessary once per day to maintain a long-term
correlation between the
LTC time and system time when using timecode rates that do not run at
real time. When the time reference is set to GPS the LTC output time will
have to be synchronized to the system time to correct for leap seconds.
Enter the hour and minute value for the jam time.
The LTC output can also be synchronized to system time immediately
using the Jam Output menu item (see section 4.4.1.4). All LTC and VITC
timecode outputs can be synchronized to system time in one shot using
the Jam all VitcLtc menu item (see section 4.4.1.5).

4.4.1.4. Synchronizing the LTC Output Time to System Time Immediately
OUTPUT
This menu item allows the user to synchronize the LTC output time to the
system time immediately. This synchronization will also happen once per
day at the time specified using the Set Jam Time
menu item (see section
4.4.1.3).
Caution: This menu item is a live control.
To synchronize the LTC time immediately, enter the Jam Output menu item
and then press the SELECT button. The left LCD screen will display TIME
JAMMED in yellow for 2 seconds to show the time has been synchronized.

When the time reference is set to VITC or LTC and the frame rate of the output
is the same as the reference, the time will be jammed directly from the time
reference source rather than from the system time.
4.4.1.5. Synchronizing All the LTC and VITC Outputs to System Time Immediately
OUTPUT
This menu item allows the user to synchronize both LTC outputs and all the
VITC output times to system time immediately.
Caution: This menu item is a live control.
To synchronize all the LTC and VITC times immediately, enter the Jam all
VitcLtc menu item and then press the SELECT button. The left LCD panel
will display ALL TIMES JAMMED
for 2 seconds to indicate that the time
has been synchronized.
