• Auto Jam Once (AJO) is the most common mode used to sync the JB-1 to a TC IN signal. Connecting TC IN in this mode automatically jam syncs once to the Frame Rate of the incoming signal (the Frame Rate selected in the menu is ignored).
Jam Once (JO) is used when the operator sets the Jam Rate (see Frame Rate section) for TC OUT, regardless of the TC IN rate. Jamming occurs when TC IN is connected.
