Timecode

NOTE: Using timecode requires ports that are only available on select DSMC2 expanders and modules. For more information, go to Input/Output Connectors.

RED cameras use non-drop frame timecode. For more information about timecode, go to TC, Genlock, Multi-Camera.

Timecode Display Mode

• Time of Day (TOD): Displays the time of day (HH:MM:SS:FF). TOD timecode runs continuously and is not affected by recording.
• Edge: Edge timecode is continuous between clips, meaning that when recording starts, timecode begins. and when recording stops, timecode stops. By default, Edge timecode default begins at 01:00:00:00, but can be configured in the Media menu when formatting an SSD.

Timecode Source

• RTC: Uses the internal Real Time Clock as the timecode counter source.
• External: Uses the timecode from an external device connected to the timecode connector on the camera.
