Set the User Bits
To make it easier when editing your recordings, you can add metadata to the
timecode data. For example, a common use of user bits is to add the date and
scene number.
The timecode mode and user bits settings of your UltraSync ONE affect what
metadata it uses:
l If your UltraSync ONE is a Master TX, it will send its user bits data to the
slaves in the network. If you have not set the user bits, it will send the default
user bits, which is four sets of 00.
l If your UltraSync ONE is an RF Slave, you can choose whether the UltraSync
ONE uses the user bits it receives from the master or uses its own user bits
settings instead.
l If your UltraSync ONE is running in EXT LTC Int or Free Run/Jam Ext mode,
you can choose whether it uses the user bits it receives from an external
source or uses its own user bits settings instead.
Note: The user bits consist of four pairs of hexadecimal characters. The
supported characters are in the range 0 to F.
To add metadata to the timecode of a UltraSync ONE, you need to use the Set User
Bits setting:
1. Make sure your UltraSync ONE is switched on (see Switch UltraSync ONE On
and Off on page 11).
2. Press the Select button.
If your UltraSync ONE is in Master TX mode, ignore steps 3 to 6 inclusive and
continue from step 8.
If your UltraSync ONE is in Ext LTC Int, Free Run/Jam Ext, or RF Slave mode,
continue from step 3.
3. Use the Up and Down buttons to scroll to the Local or EXT U/B option.
4. Press the Select button.
