Time Code Run Mode

Time Code Run Mode toggles between Free Run, Record Run, C. JAM ALL, C. JAM T.C., and C. JAM U.B.
modes.

Free Run

In the Free Run mode, time code runs continuously from either 00:00:00:00: or whatever valid time
code number you enter, since you can also jam time code from the Deva's 'Time of Day' clock.

Record Run

In the Record Run mode, time code starts and stops as you Record and Stop.
C. JAM ALL
The C. JAM All mode continuously Jams Time code and User Bits from an External Source.
C. JAM T.C.
The C. JAM T.C. mode continuously jams only the time code. The user bits can be set independently.
C. JAM. U.B.
The C. JAM U.B. mode continuously jams the User Bits, while the time code FREE RUNS indepen-
dently. This mode allows a second time code to be input as user bits from an external source.

Frame Rate

The Frame Rate button toggles the between all available time code frame rates. Available frame rates
include: 30 NDF (Non Drop Frame), 30 DF, 23.98, 24, 25, 29.97 NDF, and 29.97 DF.

Toggle Time Code Type

This button toggles the settings for entering and jamming data between Time code and User bits. This
selection changes the display on the 2 buttons to its right. JAM TIMECODE becomes JAM USER BITS and
JAM TIME OF DAY and ENTER TIMECODE becomes ENTER USER BITS and ENTER TIME OF DAY.
