  • Page 39: Jam Syncing The Generator To The Primary Reader

    Jam sync mode should be used when you need to generate ancillary time code that follows an LTC source time code. In this mode the HD9010TM-IRIG will function as an LTC to ATC translator. Jam sync mode should be also used when dubbing longitudinal time code from one tape to another, as the quality of the time code signal deteriorates with each generation, and will become unusable after the third generation.
