SYNC MENU
The SYNC menu lets you set the sync signal format,
type and rate. Select the different settings by pushing
the config switch. Navigate by toggling the config
switch left or right.
“VIDEO” – selects a genlock video sync signal. Use this to clock video cameras (and some advanced
audio recorders)
“AUDIO” - selects a wordclock or black audio sync
signal. Use this to clock most professional audio
recorders.
“PPF” is a pulse per frame to trigger certain cameras.
“OFF” – deactivates any sync signal generator, reducing the power consumption by almost 50%. Use
this if time code only is required.
