GEN MENU

In the GENenrator menu, you can edit the jam

mode, edit the time and set an offset of the time

code output against the jammed time.

GEN > Ja TC

In the JamTC settings, you can select from

different jam behaviors:

Navigate toggling left/right, push to select.

“AUTO” – the ACL 204 will behave as used to from the former Lockit boxes. It will jam once

time code is detected, but not re-jam while time code is continuously present. As long as

time code is present, the “I” mark disappears to indicate that the unit is not ready to re-jam.

If the time code is disconnected for 3 or more seconds, the “I” reappears to indicate that the

unit will jam again once time code is received.

“OFF” – the ACL 204 does not jam to external time ode. This setting is useful if you set the

unit manually or via ACN and want to transmit an incoming time code value (for instance

from a device in record-run mode) at record start to the ACN Master unit.

“manual/once” – the ACL 204 jams once to external time code, but then will not jam again

but close the jam port. Once jammed, the “I” indicator disappears, signaling that the unit can

not be jammed from outside. This setting is useful if you want the unit to be jammed from

external time code but then not to be changed by incoming signal anymore, to transmit an

incoming time code value (for instance from a device in record-run mode) at record start to

the ACN Master unit. Also can be used should a Lockit box be used to re-jam cameras in

intervals and using a bi-directional time code cable, which would, with some cameras that

put out time code permanently even in “ext. TC” mode like the Alexa, lead to resetting the

ACL 204 in “AUTO” mode. To reactivate the jam port, just push the config switch repeatedly

going >GEN>JamTC>manual/once> and exit. The “I” indicator appears again, the unit is ready

to be jammed once again.

CAUTION! Resetting the generator will restart the video or audio sync signal, doing this

while recording will result in a corrupted file.
