ES9600 User Guide Chapter 5: Linear Timecode
57 Version 1.13
Configuring as a Timecode Receive (Slave)
In ‘Receive’ (Slave) mode the ES9600 can be programmed to begin playing when it receives a particular
timecode. A different timecode can be programmed for each clip in the clip list.
NOTE: When running the ES9600 as Timecode Receive the user must determine whether the 9600 will function
in ‘Chase Mode’ or ‘Trigger Mode’. Access this setting through the Setup | Video – Mode Web page.
Chase Mode - The unit will track (stay in sync with) in-coming Timecode.
Trigger Mode - The unit will begin playback at a specific Timecode value and continue playing without
further reference to the external Timecode.
Alternatively, set the Timecode mode from the front panel:
Set the Timecode box in the Playlist Editor interface to ‘Receive’ and use the ‘Play At’ box to set the trigger
point at which the cued file will begin playing.
Here the Player is set to begin running the file 10 seconds (00:00:10:00) after the timecode starts:
The file will run until a ‘Stop At’ command halts the player after 5 minutes (00:05:00:00).
