The 8010TM SDI Time Code Master is a full function time code reader/generator system for serial digital video. The 8010TM is a combination generator/reader for Linear Time Code (LTC) and Digital Vertical Interval Time Code (D-VITC), and contains a high resolution character inserter that can burn the generator or reader numbers directly into the digital program output as well as an optional analog monitoring output. A 16 digit alphanumeric display can be quickly delegated to show the required data. The 8010TM will accept 525 or 625 line component digital video. The 8010TM's time code generator can be preset to lock to the digital program video either by simple frame locking, or where necessary it will color lock to an analog Color Reference in accordance with the 4 field NTSC or 8 field PAL color sequence.
Accepts 4:2:2 (525 and 625 line) digital video signals
Serial digital video input provides automatic cable equalization on cable lengths up to 200 meters of low loss coax such as Belden 8281
Optional bypass relay for program path protection on power loss
Auxiliary serial digital video output (not bypass protected)
Passes embedded audio and other ancillary data signals
