AATONCODEAfter initialization, the OriginCplus should be left on during produc-tion to act as a visual reference and for quick drift monitoring. Oncetimecode has been initialized into the camera(s) and sound recorder,accurate time will be individually maintained in each machine for 7hours. It is suggested, however, that new timecode be re-initialized after4 hours or so as a precautionary measure. Get into the habit of using theOriginCplus to monitor timcode drift in each device when possible; eve-ry 2-3 hours or so is recommended.8.5.1 Monitoring AatonCode with OriginCplusAssuming that the OriginCplus has been left on during the produc-tion, follow the simple procedure below to monitor drift in thecamera.• Plug the Lemo5 cable of the OriginCplus into the Lemo5 chassismount at the base of the camera.• Press * to monitor AatonCode drift. OriginCplus will compare itsown timecode to that of the AATON 35-III. OriginCplus will dis-play Good, fair, bad or diff-time (different time) followed by theamount of drift in tenth of frame.• Follow the same procedure for each camera or sound recorder onthe set running AatonCode. When initializing or monitoring time-code in a SMPTE device, press *0 on the OriginCplus.8.5.2 Maintaining AatonCode without OriginCplusIf the OriginCplus has not been used and timecode has been setdirectly from the TC audio recorder, there is no way to monitortimecode drift between the two devices. In this case, it is recommen-ded to simply re-jam the camera every 2 or 3 hours.Make sure that the camera on/off is switched to run or test positionfor it to accept the newly fed code.8.6 GMT1 SMPTE GENERATOR81AATON CODE |
