DEVICE WARNINGS

In case, there appears a warning sign in the monitoring list, you

can tap directly on the icon and a short explanation is displayed.

• Cable unplugged: This warning appears if the device is

running in Green Mode, but no cable is plugged into the

3.5 mm jack

Please note: This will not test an actual connection

between your Tentacle and the recording device, but only

the physical presence of a 3.5 mm cable plugged into the

timecode output of the Tentacle.

• Inconsistent frame rate: This indicates two or more

Tentacles in Green Mode outputting timecode with

mismatching frame rates

• Not in sync: This warning message is displayed, when inac-

curacies of more than half a frame occur between all

devices in Green Mode. Sometimes this warning can pop up

for a few seconds, when starting the app from background.

In most cases the app just needs some time to update

each Tentacle. However, if the warning message persists

for more than 10 seconds you should consider re-syncing

your Tentacles
