Time Code Source
This menu selects how the TRX-900 will receive its timecode.
• IFB (RF) – The transmitter will receive timecode via ZaxNet being broadcast from Nomad, an
IFB100/200, another TRX transmitter or a ZFR recorder.
• AUDIO INPUT– The transmitter, with a proper cable, will receive timecode via the microphone input.
When timecode is connected, it takes the transmitter approximately three seconds to recognize the TC.
The screen displays TIME CODE followed by JAM when it is recognized. When the word JAM disappears,
the timecode input source can be disconnected and normal operation can be resumed.
Group ID
This allows you to set your TRX-900 to a “GROUP” to be controlled via ZaxNet.
So for example a transmitter set to Group 1 will control all Group 1 receivers and a Group 2 transmitter
will control all Group 2 receivers. This allows you to control a group of receivers without affecting others.
This will also help if two or more people on set are sending ZaxNet commands each person will be
independent and won’t interfere with each other. Most users leave this set to 1 on all their Zaxcom
products.
Group codes can be set from 1 to 99
Unit ID
This assigns a unique number identify the TRX-900 within a particular group. This allows individual devices
in one group to be independently controlled.
You can assign a number from 1 to 200

NOTE: When using the mic input connector, the audio level of the timecode signal needs to be
between -30 and -10 dBFS on the unit’s meter. Any level above -10 may cause clipping, which will
prevent proper reading of timecode
