the optional Video/TC interface. To set the digital audio word clock source, see the I/O panel in the Virtual StudioSettings window.TC SourceShows the source of time code that will be used to synchronize Pyramix playback or to generate the timestampwhen an audio file is digitized. A drop down list offers the following choices:Internal uses the code from the internal time code chip on the audio board.VITC uses code from the Vertical Interval Time Code (VITC) input on the optional Video/TC interface bracket /breakout cable.LTC uses the Linear Time Code (LTC) input on the Video/TC interface bracket to deriveAuto Pyramix automatically uses any valid time code location reference from an Internal, VITC, LTC or Externaltime code source.External uses the code from the External TC reader source.External TC readerShows the current value of the External Time Code reader. The drop-down list offers a choice of Virtual Transportand all external machines installed and enabled in the Settings > All Settings > Remote Control > Machinepage.LTC readerShows the current value of the Linear Time Code (LTC) reader chip. I.e. the external LTC input.LTC GeneratorMykerinos boards have a Linear Time Code generator.Output Level (dBV)Shows the current LTC output level in dBV. The drop-down list offers a choice of output level from -24dBV to+9dBV in 3dBV increments, or it can be switched Off.Off when stoppedWhen checked Pyramix mutes the LTC output when stopped. If not checked, it continues to output it’s actual position.(static TimeCode) Certain video and audio machines cannot handle static TimeCode.VITC ReaderMykerinos boards are capable of reading Vertical Interval Time Code encoded in a lines of a video signal. VITC hasthe advantage of being accurate and readable even when the video is stationary.Video InputThese check buttons allow the choice of which of the two video inputs will be used for the VITC signal.LineShows which lines will be decoded. Although VITC code fits into a single line, it is normally duplicated to provideredundancy reducing read errors. The drop-down lists allow any two lines to be chosen. Different pairs of linesoften carry different code. E.g. Time-of-day and Absolute time.VITC GeneratorMykerinos boards have a Vertical Interval Time Code generator.EnableWhen checked the output of the VITC generator is On.Video OutputThese check buttons allow the choice of which of the two video outputs will be used for the VITC.LineShow which lines will contain VITC.Settings : I/O Interfaces 27 - 504
