High speed LTC time code Reader with high resolution character inserter, LED display and parallel binary coded decimal time or user data output.

• Full compatability with any source of SMPTE/EUB time code
• Indicates drop frame 25 or 30 frames per second modes.
• Reads 1/10 to 80 times play speed.Accomodates precise edit choices
• Wide input level range accepts signal from any professional equipment source
• Time or user data display is selectable from front panel. Provides time code for edit selection and user data for further identification or control purposes.
• High resolution 16 x 16 dot character generator. Offers boxed or uniquely bordered characters, reverse character video, two isolated video outputs, continuously variable character position and frames suppression switch.
• Regenerated 600 ohn + 11 dBm time code output.
• Time and user data displayed together or separately in video.
• Remote and front panel display Run/Hold control.
• Parallel output of time user data.
• Indicates color framing in NTSC and PAL for precision editing jobs, such as animation where the odd/even color framing sequence is significant.
• Forward/Reverse indicator. Tells you the direction in which the tape is being read.
• Error indicator shows that your not reading good code, and in the event of an error, the display will freeze on the last reading.
• Decoding delay compensation.
• Large .8" (2cm) high, bright LED display with intensity adjustable to match control room lighting.
• Microprocessor design. Fewer parts for greater reliability. 19"/48cm rack mounting only 1-3/4"/45cm high. The low operating temperature maens T6010 can be racked immediately above or below other equipment.
• Versatility. Combination of size and function makes the T6010 ideal for VTR room and mobile applications.

A typical application for the T6010 would be to dub program material with time code user data inserted into the video. This becomes a working copy used to select the log scene start and stop times. As well, the master recording may be viewed on a monitor with time or user data inserted by the T6010. Front panel and remote "HOLD" controls are provided.

Model T6010 accepts time code input signals over a very wide range of levels and speeds. It provides a parallel TTL level time or user data output for use of edit and machine controllers, remote digital displays, computer interface etc.

Stops/starts the time or user information from updating the display devices.

Vertical and Horizontal Postition
Used to position the time/user display in the video signal.

Border
Alternate action switch selecting either video characters with a corder or a rectangular cutout containing unbordered characters.

Insert
This switch enables/disables the insertion of characters in the external video signal.

Frames
Suppresses the display of frames in the video signal when the time data is selected. (Shows only hours, minutes and seconds).

Invert
Produces a reverse video effect. With border on, it selects white characters with black borders or black characters with white borders. With border off (rectangle cutout) it selects either white characters in a black box or black characters in a white box.

Time
When lighted, indicates that the 8 digit LED display and the character generator display and the character generator display contain time information.

User
Indicates that the 8 digit LED display and the character generator display contain user information.

Hold
LED indicator on the front panel indicating that the display is in the HOLD mode.

Forward
Indicates that the tape is being read in the forward direction.

Reverse
Indicates that the tape is moving in the reverse direction.

Error
When illuminated, indicates that the code is absent or un-readable.
