Antex StudioCard 3-11
Timecode Option
Description
1
Timecode In
Source
Selects timecode source to be read and shown in the “timecode in” position and
optionally converted to MIDI timecode.
2
Timecode In
MTC Frame
Rate
During MIDI Timecode Generation (when LTC or VITC is the source), this
specifies the frame rate of the incoming data. This is also encoded into the
Generated MIDI Timecode Data Stream.
3
Timecode In
VITC Auto Line
Selects auto detection of the VITC lines. When ON, the VITC Line 1 and VITC
Line 2 controls (item 4) disappear.
4
Timecode In
VITC Line 1
VITC Line 2
Visible only when VITC Auto Line (item 3) is off. Allows manual selection of up to
two lines to detect encoded VITC data. Range is 10-40.
5
Timecode Out
Destination
Selects the destination of the generated timecode to either the LTC Output (on
the DB15 connector) or VITC on the Video Out on the top of the StudioCard.
6
Timecode Out
Position
Allows entry of the starting position of the generated timecode. The default is the
last timecode generated.
7
Timecode Out
Dropframe
Turns on and off dropframe, which is independent of the frame rate.
8
Timecode Out
Jam Sync
Jam Sync is used to synchronize the generated time code to the input time
code. Start indicates that the start of time code generation is triggered from an
input time code. The input time code is also used as the starting time code value
for the generator. In continuous mode the generated time code is continuously
updated with the input time code. Care must be taken with the continuous mode
to make sure that the input time code rate is exactly the same as the output time
code rate.
9
Timecode Out
LTC Frame
Rate
Selects the frame rate of the generated LTC (Linear Time Code). “LTC In” slaves
the frame rate to the LTC Input, and “Video In” slaves to the video input on the
top of the StudioCard.
10
Timecode Out
LTC Edge Rate
These are the two industry standard edge-rates for the analog time code signal.
They define how fast the edges of the digital signal rise and fall.
11
Timecode Out
LTC Gain
Selects the Gain of the LTC Output in 3 dB increments. Range is Off, -33 to +9.
12
Timecode Out
VITC Line 1
VITC Line 2
Selects the two lines to encode VITC data on the video feedthrough. Range is
10 to 40.
