3.6 TimeCode and SYNC
Timecode is one of key features of cinema camera. TERRA shows time code
in the Liveview and Playback state. Timecode is written into recorded clips.
For ProRes, the mov file contains a single timecode track; for RAW, every
single frame contains a specific timecode.
TERRA supports three types of timecode:
Free run: timecode runs all the time, no matter if you recording or
not, and the timecode is embedded into recorded clips;
Record run: timecode runs only when recording. We suggest to set
timecode to 00: 00: 00: 00 when a new project begins;
External TC: TERRA can use timecode from external device like
Ambient NanoLockit as timecode of camera: using special cable to
connect timecode generator to the TC port (on KineBACK-W) of
TERRA, then set timecode source as external in TERRA menu.
To set the timecode:
[ConfigurationSettingsTimeCode]
Choose the timecode mode or reset the timecode.
3.6.1 TC port and TC cord
The TC port is MOCO 0B 5-pin port as definitions right side. It is compatible
with ARRI Alexa camera TC port for LTC IN and OUT.
For timecode generator based on Ambient timecode system, such as
NanoLockit, also a 0B 5-pin port; check the TC cord on Kinefinity website or
contact sales@kinefinity.com.
In addition, camera can output timecode to other devices: connect the TC
input port of the device to the TC output port of TERRA by a special TC cord.
NOTE The external mode doesn't support Jam TC input.
