Chapter 20—Other Functions
Drop Out Time: This parameter sets an interval (in frames) between the interruption of
incoming timecode and the stoppage of Automix recording or playback.
Lock Time: This parameter sets the interval (in frames) allowed until the Automix locks
to incoming timecode messages. If the sync operation is unstable, set this value higher.
Frame Jump Error: This parameter sets the time interval (in frames) required by the
02R96 to recognize an error after incoming timecode messages jump. If the actual interval
is shorter than the value specified by this parameter, the 02R96 continues the sync opera-
tion. If the frame jump causes the recording or playback to stop during the MTC and SMPT
sync operation, set the parameter value higher than the number of frames indicated in the
error message.
If you set the parameter to a higher value, adjust the Drop Out Time parameter value, if nec-
essary.
Fader REC Accuracy: This parameter sets the accuracy of recording faders over time to
"Little," "Some," "More," or "Most." If you set the parameter to lower values, you will save
Automix memory space.
Insert Time Link: This parameter enables you to select the locate memory used for the
IN and OUT parameters in the Insert operation.

Using the Oscillator

The 02R96 features an oscillator that can be used for calibration or diagnostic purposes.
Use the DISPLAY ACCESS [UTILITY] button to locate the Oscillator page.

2 Use the cursor buttons to select the parameters, and use the Parameter
wheel, INC/DEC button, or [ENTER] button to set them.
OSCILLATOR ON: This turns the Oscillator on or off. While the LEVEL parameter is
selected, the [ENTER] button can be used to turn on and off the Oscillator.
Note: To prevent any sudden tone burst surprises in your monitors or headphones, you may
want to set the LEVEL parameter to minimum before turning on the oscillator.
LEVEL: This sets the Oscillator output level, which is displayed by the adjacent meter. This
parameter can be set by using the Parameter wheel regardless of which parameter is cur-
rently selected.
WAVEFORM: These buttons are used to select the waveforms: SINE 100Hz, SINE 1kHz,
SINE 10kHz, 1kHz/400Hz, PINK NOISE, or BURST NOISE, which is 200 msec pink noise
pulses at four second intervals. If you select 1 kHz/400 Hz, the Oscillator outputs a sine wave
at different frequencies to L, R, and odd/even buses.
ASSIGN: These buttons are used to assign the Oscillator output to Bus Outs, Aux Sends,
and the Stereo Out.
