(continued)

• Output Status Display

Displays the current content and source being used for the timecode data
as follows:

• Output status OK (in this example, SDI VITC timecode received and

outputted).

Timecode Insertion button set to Disabled; output insertion disabled.
Note: • If timecode is not available from Source Priority selections

performed, timecode on output reverts to Free Run (internal
count) mode.

• Because the 1’s digit of the display Frames counter goes from 0 to

29, the fractional digit (along with the 1’s digit) indicates frame
count as follows:

0.0

Frame 0

0.1

Frame 1

1.0

Frame 2

1.1

Frame 3



29.1 Frame 59

• Offset Controls

Allows the current timecode count to be advanced or delayed on the
output video.

• Offset Advance or Delay selects offset advance or delay.

• Offset Field delays or advances or delays timecode by one field.

• Offset Frame delays or advances or delays timecode by up to 5

frames.

Note: Default settings are null, with both controls set at zero as shown.

Note: • Although the output line drop-down on the controls described below will allow a particular range of choices, the actual

range is automatically clamped (limited) to certain ranges to prevent inadvertent conflict with active picture area
depending on video format. See Ancillary Data Line Number Locations and Ranges (p. 3-8) for more information.

• The card does not check for conflicts on a given line number. Make certain the selected line is available and carrying

no other data.
