Configuring S6L to Slave (Chase) External Time Code
The VENUE system can slave to external MTC or LTC and automate the recall of snapshots based on the incoming time code. In-
coming time code can also be used as a Trigger in Events. VENUE automatically detects the frame rate of the incoming time code
when enabled. The following frame rates are supported: 24 fps, 25 fps, 30 fps drop, or 30 fps non-drop.
To configure S6L to slave to external time code:
1 On the external software screen, go to Options > Snapshots.
2 Do one of the following:
• To chase to incoming MTC, under Time Code Format, select MTC.
• To chase to incoming LTC, under Time Code Format, select LTC
3 Select Read. A time code display appears at the bottom of the screen.
The time code display indicates the following:
• When external time code is not present, the display shows a series of dashes.
• When external time code is present, the current time code value is shown in green.
• When time code is non-drop frame, HMSF separators are colons; when drop frame, HMSF separators are semicolons.
Snapshot Time Code Display
When the system is set to generate or read time code, the Snapshots list shows time code values and a green Recall Enable indicator
for each snapshot entry.
Assigning Time Code Values to Snapshots
With the S6L system set to generate or read time code, you can assign time code values to snapshots by entering values manually,
or by capturing time code playback values.
Manually Assigning Time Code Values to Snapshots
To manually assign an time code value to a snapshot:
1 In the Snapshots list, double tap the time code value you want to change.
2 Do one of the following:
• From the keyboard, type a new value.
– or –
• Press the Left and Right Arrow keys to move the cursor between number fields, and the Up and Down Arrow keys to increase
and decrease the selected value.
3 Press Enter or select another snapshot time code value to accept the entry.
