MAIN MENU

File Resolution Select

The file resolution sets the bit depth that Nomad will mirror the files at. Nomad can record files as 16 bit or 24 bit.

File Naming Protocol

File naming sets the way the individual files are named.

Z001001 - Creates a file name in the format of - Folder Name and Segment Number.
This is the default file naming protocol where the file name consists of the Folder Name (Z001 or whatever name
was created) followed by the Segment Number (for example 045) so the file name would be Z001045.WAV
(folder name / file number) that would be followed by Z001046WAV.

1 T2 Z001 - Creates a file name in the format of - Scene, Take, Folder Name and Segment Number.
For example scene "1", Take "2" in folder "Z001" and the segment number is "45", the file name will be
"1_T2_Z001045.WAV". Warning - when using this naming option do not create a scene or take with any
characters other than letters or numbers.

1 T2 - Creates a file name in the format of - Scene and Take separated by and underscore.
For example scene "1", Take "2" in folder "Z001" and the segment number is "45", the file name will be
"1_T2.WAV". Warning when using this naming option avoid creating duplicate file names within a folder, if
duplicate file names are created the files will not mirror properly.

1T2- Creates a file name in the format of - Scene and Take with no separation.
For example scene "1", Take "2" in folder "Z001" and the segment number is "45", the file name will be
"1T2.WAV". Warning when using this naming option avoid creating duplicate file names within a folder, if
duplicate file names are created the files will not mirror properly.
Please note that all segment numbers will be a three digit number. The first file in a folder will always be 001.

Mirror Options

Remember mirror options after power cycle allows Nomad to stay in the last mirror mode setting before
being been powered off. If this option is set to OFF, any time Nomad is powered down the mirror mode will
default to OFF and will need to be turned back on. Please note that even if Nomad is setup to allow mirroring
mode to be remembered after a power cycle if a CF card is not installed in the mirror slot after the unit
boots-up - mirror mode will be turned off and must be manually turned on after a mirror card is inserted.

Time Code Offset

The time code offset is used to create an offset for the mirror files. An offset can be from -500ms to +500ms in
1ms increments.

Format Mirror Card

This is where the mirror compact flash card is formatted. Nomad will format the card as a FAT32 format.

Mirror Drive Select - Nomad 12 Only

This menu will select if Nomad will mirror to its internal compact flash drive or to the USB drive. If set to mirror to
USB Nomad will mirror to a drive plugged into the USB port on the side of a Nomad 12.
