Time Code Source Select

TC SOURCE:
ZAXNET (RF)
The time code source menu selects how the transmitter will receive its time code.
ZAXNET (RF) - The ZMT3 Phantom 2 will receive time code via ZaxNet from a Nomad, a QRX235,
•
IFB100/200, TRX900CL or another TRX transmitter or a ZFR recorder that is transmitting ZaxNet time code.
AUDIO INPUT - The ZMT3 Phantom 2, with a proper cable, will receive time code via the microphone input.
•
When time code is connected, it takes the ZMT3 Phantom approximately three seconds to recognize the
TC. The screen will display TIME CODE followed by JAM when it is recognized. Please note that when using
the microphone input connector, the audio level of the time code signal needs to be between -30 and -10
dBFS on the unit's meter. Any level above -10 may cause clipping, which will prevent proper reading of time
code.

TC Jam Mode Select

TC JAM MODE:
AUTO-JAM NORMAL
This menu controls if the ZMT3 Phantom 2 will go into record when it receives a record run time code.
AUTO-JAM NORMAL - The ZMT3 Phantom 2 will continuously jam time code via ZaxNet and will go into
•
record when receiving a record command via ZaxNet or if the unit is put into record manually by pressing
the CARD and INC keys simultaneously.
AUTO-LOAD REC RUN - In Auto-Load mode the ZMT3 Phantom 2 will go into record when it detects rolling
•
time code, and will stop when the time code stops. If time code is lost because the IFB signal is too weak
the unit will not stop but will continue in whatever state it was in until the time code signal is restored.

Mute Time Code Transmission Until Jammed

MUTE TC SEND
UNTIL JAMED: OFF
If the mute time code menu is set to ON the ZaxNet transmitter will not broadcast time code over ZaxNet
until the transmitter receives time code and jams its own internal time code generator. This prevents the
ZaxNet from sending incorrect time code to another device.
