Signature Control: Signature Control controls when messages will be
broadcast in response to events on the Event Input (J2) port when events
are enabled and the card is in “broadcast” mode. (Events are still queued
even if they are not broadcast, and are transmitted once the signature con-
trol conditions permit.) For more information on Signature Control, see "Sig-
nature Control" on page183.
Format: The format of the message to be output. Refer to "Event Broad-
cast Time Code Formats" on page552 for a description of all of the avail-
able formats.
The Event Broadcast card only supports two formats (Event Broadcast
Format 0 and Event Broadcast Format 1), and only supports the output of
one message per event. If format is set to “None”, no messages will be
queued in the Message Buffer.
Output Mode: When the output data will be provided. Available Mode selec-
tions are as follows:
Broadcast—Event Messages are automatically broadcast when they
are created by an event. If a new event happens while an older mes-
sage is being broadcast, the new message will be queued in a “First-
in, First-out” manner. When the message has finished, the next mes-
sage out of the queue will be broadcast.
Request—Event Messages are only broadcast in response to a
Request Character. New messages will be queued in a “First-in, First-
out” manner.
Timescale: The time base for the incoming time code data. The entered
Timescale is used by the system to convert the time in the incoming data
stream to UTC time for use by the System Time. The available choices are:
UTC—Coordinated Universal Time ("temps universel coordonné"),
also referred to as ZULU time
TAI—Temps Atomique International
GPS—The raw GPS time as transmitted by the GNSS satellites (as of
22-August-2023, this is 18 seconds ahead of UTC time).
A local clock set up through the Time Management Page—This option
will appear under the name of the local clock you have set up. Refer
to "The Time Management Screen" on page186 for more information
on configuring and reading the System Time. Local timescale allows a
Local Clock to apply a time offset for Time Zone and DST correction.
