Timecode Run Recording
HyperDeck also supports timecode run recording, which is similar to start/stop recording, but is only
used if your HD-SDI camera does not support trigger recording via HD-SDI.
To set up timecode run recording:
Step 1. Go into your camera's timecode settings and change them from "free run timecode" to
"record run timecode".
Step 2. In HyperDeck Utility, set Trigger recording to "When SDI timecode runs".
Step 3. If using HyperDeck Studio, press the REM button after setting Timecode Run Recording in
HyperDeck Utility. The REM button must be illuminated on the unit to allow trigger recording.
To set this on HyperDeck Studio models using the Display menu:
Step 1. Press the DISP button to bring up the main menu.
Step 2. Scroll to the Record menu and press SET.
Step 3. Scroll to the Record Trigger menu and press SET.
Step 4. Select Timecode Run and press SET to confirm your selection. Press DISP to exit.
Step 5. Press the REM button. The REM button must be illuminated on the unit to allow trigger recording.
Now whenever your HyperDeck detects the timecode running via HD-SDI it will start recording. Recording
will stop whenever the timecode stops.
Be careful if your HyperDeck is connected to the SDI output of a video router, as any change to the
video source might cause HyperDeck to start recording unexpectedly due to a change in timecode
being detected via HD-SDI.
