Time Code
How do we check the quality of our time code?
You could always just put the computer into auto-fire mode and wait to see if it syncs up properly; however, this method
does not show you the actual quality of the time code. By entering the time code mode, you will see the actual
code count, as well as more importantly, the error count. So for example, if you are broadcasting your time code wirelessly,
this will give you an idea of the quality of the signal and if any adjustments to your transmitting/receiving arangements have
to be made. Ideally, no errors are received, however this is usually only the case when using an XLR hardline. For a more
in depth explaination of time code, see our advanced section.
A short explaination will be given, followed with step by step instructions on conducting
a time-code check. Make sure you watch our training video to the right which shows and actual time-code check using both
methods mentioned above, namely using auto fire mode and time code mode.
