Model –GPS
When the NTP100-GPS achieves a GPS satellite fix, the continuous time/date obtained from GPS will automatically
overwrite any that is manually established. Therefore, practical ongoing use of this feature requires the NTP100 to be
disconnected from its GPS antenna.
Model -TC
Because of the special considerations for accommodating non-date encoded SMPTE & IRIG-B/B1 time code formats,
the NTP100-TC Set Time/Date Screen will differ from the –GPS and –OSC models.
Automatic Detection mode (for date & year encoded time code) – Recommended (default) Settings
If your time code source outputs UTC referenced SMPTE 30/25/24 fps time code to the Leitch date encoded format
or IRIG-B/B1 time code to the IEEE 1344 standard, then leave the “Ignore Date From Reference” and “Ignore Year
From Reference” disabled (factory default setting) by entering “n” for no , as shown. This will allow the automatic
detection of time, date (or day of year), and year information from the incoming time code signal.
Date or Year Manual Overwrite (Ignore Date or Ignore Year from Reference) Feature
The date overwrite feature may be used if the Time Code signal (model –TC) does not contain date encoded time code
to either the SMPTE 30/25/24 fps Leitch date format standard IRIG-B/B(1) IEEE 1344 standard.
