Bi-Phase/Tach Parameters
Used for specialized applications that involve
film or other equipment that output Bi-
Phase/Tach information. These parameters
must be set to match the Bi-Phase or Tach source
to achieve lock.
Generator/Bi-Phase Preset
Serves two functions, as determined by the cur-
rent SYNC I/O mode:
Generate Mode Sets the time code start time di-
rectly by clicking in the Hrs:Min:Sec:Frm fields
and typing in a value. The Tab key will cycle
though the fields.
Bi-Phase/Tach Mode Zeros the time code
counter, to allow SYNC I/O to generate time
code in relation to the pulses of the incoming
Bi-Phase/Tach information. Establishes a time
code start point (first frame of a reel, for exam-
ple).
Variable Speed Override (VSO)
Used to varispeed the rate of SYNC I/O internal
crystal-referenced clock (±699 cents; a cent is
one-hundredth of a semitone). VSO is available
at any positional reference setting, but only
when the clock reference is Internal/VSO.
