The Remote Control Software

If you haven't worked with SMPTE/MTC sync before, we suggest
you read the section "SMPTE/MIDI Time Code Tutorial" before
reading this section just to familiarize yourself with some basic
ideas and terminology.

SMPTE Setup

The primary screen of the PORTMAN 4x4/s Remote Control
Software gives you complete control over all the SMPTE sync
functions of the interface.

The controls are fairly self-explanatory. Format sets the SMPTE
frame rate for the PORTMAN SMPTE generator. Flywheel sets the
number of frames the reader/regenerator will automatically
advance and correct when receiving either bad or no time code.
The Start Writer button starts and stops the SMPTE generator. The
Start Time and User Bits buttons allow you to set, respectively,
SMPTE start time and user bits.

Click on the arrows next to each number to change them to match
the start time you want to use.
