Editing The Offset Figure - Fostex 8335 Owner's Manual

Model 8335 (TC/SYNC card) Owner's Manual

7. Editing the OFFSET Figure

By installing the 8335, it will then be possible to edit memory data of TC
time aside from A-TIME. The same method as when an 8335 is not installed
can be used by changing the display to TC.
In addition, editing CHASE OFFSET is now possible as a new function.
When executing CHASE operation in sync with external time codes, a certain
amount of time difference (CHASE OFFSET TIME) can be set between two
time codes functioning in synchronization.
If this OFFSET figure is setup, when the slave D-15 starts the CHASE operation,
it can be synchronized with the external time code while maintaining an
interval equal to the CHASE OFFSET time. The operating method below, as
explained by "Chase Synchronizing" on page 19, is explained in the situation
of inputing an external time code to the D-15.
Editing Method
1
. Press once the D-15 front panel [OFFSET] key.
When the key is pressed, time difference between the presently input
external time code and time code on the tape, and the frame rate is
displayed (Example below shows that the present OFFSET is 00: 01: 18: 03:
84 and frame rate is 25).

. Next, press the [QUIT/RCL] key.
It is entered in the OFFSET data edit mode and [H] will blink as shown in
the schematic.(Example: OFFSET is set to [00:00:00:00:00])

. Input the desired OFFSET data.
A new number can be input at the blinking digit.
The blinking digit can be shifted to right or left by the [SHUTTLE] dial and
numbers input at the blinking digit with the [JOG] dial or the [10] key
(numerical keypad).

When rotated clockwise at the blinking digit other than [H], it will
count up, and count down in the counter clockwise rotation.
At the instant two numbers are input at the blinking digit, the
blinking digit will shift to the right.
