OPERATION
Figure 0-2: Display Pushbutton Group
The display keypad consists of ten dual function keys ( L-GEN, V-GEN,
ABS, OFFSET, KKODE, RDR 1, RDR 2, EVENT 1 and EVENT 2) and the
TIME / UB key. In their normal functions, these keys control only what data
is being displayed on the front panel, (they do not change the operational
modes of the 4025). The leftmost characters of the front panel display are
used to prompt which data is being displayed. When the ENTER key is
pressed, the dual function keys are changed to their numeric values and
are used for numeric entry into various timecode and film edge number
registers.
L-GEN
Displays the time of the LTC generator. Pressing the TIME / UB
key will alternately display the user bits.
V-GEN
Displays the time of the primary VITC generator. Pressing the
TIME / UB key will alternately display the user bits. The primary
VITC generator time and user bits follow the LTC generator.
ABS
Displays the absolute film frames register. The absolute frames
register is slaved to the bi-phase input from the telecine and
usually indicates the number of film frames that you are from a
reference frame. Negative values indicate that the number has
rolled under 00000 or over its maximum value.
OFFSET Displays the Jam sync offset register. The offset register is
used when the generator time is slaved, or jam synced to
Reader 1, and contains the difference between the reader and

leading the reader, positive values indicate that the generator is
lagging the reader.

alternately display the user bits. The format menu is used to

VITC reader, or if it is configured as an AUTO LTC/VITC reader.
RDR 2
Displays the time of Reader 2. Pressing the TIME / UB key will
alternately display the user bits. The format menu is used to
determine whether Reader 2 will be OFF or will be assigned to
