Syncing Nomad to a Denecke Slate
The LTC stream out of the Nomad has a “jitter” in the time code signal at 29.97 fps and 23.976 fps. This can
result in the Denecke TS-C or the TS-3 slates identifying the wrong code, if you set the slate to “Auto Set”
(position 5). In addition, if you use “Auto Set” you will experience a time code drift.
You don’t need to replace your slates. The Denecke slate and Nomad can sync perfectly.
When setting the slate to receive time code at 29.97 or 23.976, do not use the auto set mode. Just simply
set the rotary dial to the corresponding time code frame rate. When you sync the slate you will see “Sync
Err” message in the slate. Simply ignore it. The slate will accept the sync and the slate and Nomad will stay
in perfect sync with each other.
