Page 4: General
The TRG-100 is easy to operate and simple to set up. Four front panel switches allow the user to quickly select TCR or TCG time or FPS display, change TCG FPS rate, start/stop/preset the generator, select the genlock source, etc. Both balanced and un-balanced time code inputs and outputs provide for quick hookup into different time code situations and applications. -
Page 5: Connecting
3.2 Operating From Battery Power You can operate your TRG-100 from battery power in order to use it in the field. The TRG-100 operates from 9-to-12 volts DC and you will need to connect it from the battery to a 3.5mm mini-phone plug, with the tip being positive (+). -
Page 6: Connecting Time Code In And Out
The following paragraphs describe the general scheme for setting up and operating the TRG-100. Because of the variety in both the needs of the user and the capabilities of the TRG-100, this manual provides only descriptions of the functions of the various TRG-100 settings, along with a more general description of TRG-100 operation. -
Page 7: Time Code Time Display Format
When ON, the TCR LED indicates that the TCR has been selected for display of the time code, user bits, or FPS rate of the time code input. In addition to this use, the TCR LED also indicates whether or not the TRG-100 is reading an active input time code. -
Page 8: Genlock" Colon Led
4.15 "TCR FPS DETECT " Colon LED The TCR FPS DETECT LED indicates whether or not the frame rate of a time code input to the TRG-100 has been detected and measured by the TCR. If the LED is OFF then the FPS has not been measured. If the LED is flashing then the FPS is actively being measured. -
Page 9: Jamming" The Tcg Time
If the time code input to the TCR is the jam source but it is not locked to video, the TRG-100 can be setup to jam to the TCR time but genlock to the input video by setting the GENLOCK switch selection to VID. -
Page 10: Genlocking To The Time Code Input
The following Table 4-3 shows all of the video and time code genlock capabilities of the TRG-100: TCG OUT | VIDEO IN GENLOCK LED | TCR TC IN GENLOCK LED | FPS FLASH RATE | FPS FLASH RATE 23.976 | 23.976 Frame | 23.976... -

4.30 Using The Time Code and User Bit Preset Memories When the TRG-100 is powered up the time code and user bits are set to all zeros. The "Preset" memories allow prior entered time or user bit values to be quickly recalled and entered into the TCG as starting values for the time code and/or user bits. -
Page 12: Changing The Preset Memory Values
If both the PRE1 and PRE2 LEDs are ON then it's simply whatever time or user bit value was in the time code generator at the time that the MODE switch was first held in the SET position. 4. Continue actuating SET and after 2-seconds the ON condition of the PRE1 and PRE2 LEDs will change and the associated preset value will be recalled and loaded into the TCG. -
Page 13: Smpte Time Code
Time Code Reader – reads (decodes) SMPTE time code. The TRG-100 incorporates an internal multi-frame-rate SMPTE time code reader., sometimes referred to in this manual as the “TRG-100 TCR” or just the “TCR”. Time Code Generator - generates SMPTE time code. The TRG-100 incorporates a multi-frame-rate internal SMPTE time code generator, sometimes referred to in this manual as the “TRG-100 TCG”... - Page 14 User Bits - The last remaining thirty-two (32) bits are “extra” and are available to encode "user" information as desired. This could be additional information such as the date, a production number, an experiment number, etc. Like the time code, the 32 User Bits are usually sub-divided into 8 groups of 4 bits each and can have the numeric values of 0-9 and in addition, the hexadecimal values of A-F.

Page 15: Maintenance
1. Check all video and time code coaxial cables and connections for opens or shorts. 2. If using an AC power adapter different from the one supplied with the TRG-100, make sure it supplies the TRG-100 with at least 9 volts (maximum of 12 volts) when the TRG-100 is switched on. -
