3.4.14. Selecting the Generator Colour Frame Mode
In most applications the 8010TM-IRIG will be gen-locked to the program video. It is also necessary to
supply an external colour reference if you desire to apply colour frame synchronization to the generated
time code. This reference is not required when the generator is operated in the 2 field mode.
OPERATION
Model 8010TM-IRIG SDI Time Code Master with IRIG Reader Manual
The GEN DROP FRAME menu item is used to the desired drop frame
mode for the generator.
Select Drop frame off to configure the generator in the non-drop frame
or 'full frame' mode.
Select Drop frame on to configure the generator in the drop frame
mode.
When the 8010TM-IRIG is in the continuous Jam Sync mode, the
generator drop frame mode is the same as the incoming time code
data. The Drop Frame sub menu shows Drop frame jam.
When the 8010TM-IRIG is operating in the 625 line video standard, the
Drop Frame sub menu shows No drop in 625.
When the 8010TM-IRIG is operating in time date or Convert mode in
the 525 line video standard, it should be operated in the Drop Frame
mode so that the time base is as close as possible to real time.
When the 8010TM-IRIG-IRIG is in the continuous Jam Sync mode in
the 525 line video standard, and the active reader is set to IRIG DAY
mode, the generator drop frame mode will be On so that the time base
is as close as possible to real time. The Drop Frame sub menu shows
Drop frame jam.
When the 8010TM-IRIG-IRIG is operating in momentary jam mode in
the 525 line video standard and the active reader is set to IRIG DAY
