change in both time and genlock if changed.
4.5.4. Setting the VITC/LTC Userbits
This menu item is used to manually enter the userbits for the VITC/LTC
outputs. Only valid when VitcLtc dte fmt is set to User set bits.
4.5.5. Setting the VITC/LTC Date Format
This menu item is used to set the contents of the user bits for the LTC and
VITC generators. All the LTC and VITC generators will operate in the same
user bit mode, although the actual user bits may vary from gener
ator to
generator depending on the mode chosen and the respective time zone
being applied to the generator. Four of the user bit modes encode date
information into the user bits in various formats. This date information will be
the system date compensated
for any time zone or daylight saving time
adjustments being applied to a particular output.
Select Legacy date
to output the date in a format compatible with Leitch
master clock systems.
Select Production date to output the date in a format compatible with
timecode smart slates used in film and television production. In this mode
the date is encoded as yymmddrr, where rr is the nominal frame rate of the
respective output (30 for 29.97Hz outputs).
Select SMPTE BCD date to output the date in the SMPTE ST 309 standard
BCD mode. In this mode the date is encoded as zzyymmdd, where zz is the
time zone of the respective output.
Select SMPTE MJD date to output the date in the SMPTE ST 309 standard
Modified Julian Date mode. In this mode the date is encoded as zzdddddd,
where zz is the time zone of the respective output and dddddd is the date
expressed in its Modified Julian Date representation.
Select Manual entry t
o output the user bits that are entered using the
VITC/LTC Userbit menu item.
Select Lat/Long to embed location information in the user bits. This is only
valid when the frequency reference is GPS. Note that this embeds the
location of the antenna, and not the 5601MSC. This is useful for mobile
applications and remote site filming. See section 2.5.4 for more information.
