Default Re: USD,Linear time code Sync

Attention!!!!

"Under ideal
circumstances(when locked internally or to house sync )this yellow light remains solid of course)Am I incorrect in assuming this flashing
to be normal!!"

If you are resolving to incoming LTC (clock source = LTC) and the light is flashing you are NOT accurately locked, and your PT will drift compared to the Analog tape. You must have solid yellow light in order to reliably lock. This is very important and has screwed me before.

Slow flashing means the incoming LTC is to slow, fast flashing neans to fast. Usually a varispeed from (for example) 30ips to 30.01ips is all the correction neaded.
