Other Time Codes
The Frame Master II also contains two
other Time Code modes: (a) 25 fps
(P
AL
/S
ECAM
) and (b) Custom Time
Code, which can be set to any speed
from 1-100 fps (the default setting is
“true” clock-accurate 30 fps — i.e., 30
fps referenced to 60 Hz).
Note: Both these are “true” speeds in
that they need no adjustments to
synchronize them to real-time.
Conversions
Before moving on, it is very important
to understand how conversions are
done on the calculator, as there are var-
ious standards used throughout the
world. The three conversion methods
used on this calculator:
(1) Frame to Frame — Each frame of
one format is converted to one frame
of another format (i.e., NTSC Non-
Drop Frame Time Code to NTSC
Drop Frame Time Code — the time
code changes, but the number of
frames stays constant).
