TIME CODE MENU
Time Code Frame Rate Set
The time code frame rate menu is where the time code frame rate is set.
The TRXLA3 will lock to and record all standard time code frame rates.
• 23.98, 24, 25, 29.97DF, 29.97DF, 30 DF, 30 NDF
Time Code Source Select
The time code source menu selects how the transmitter will receive its time code.
• ZAXNET (RF) - The TRXLA3 will receive time code via ZaxNet from a Nomad, a QRX235, IFB100/200,
TRX900CL or another TRX transmitter or a ZFR recorder that is transmitting ZaxNet time code.
• AUDIO INPUT - The TRXLA3, with a proper cable, will receive time code via the microphone input.
When time code is connected, it takes the TRXLA3 approximately three seconds to recognize the TC. The
screen will display TIME CODE followed by JAM when it is recognized. Please note that when using the
microphone input connector, the audio level of the time code signal needs to be between -30 and -10 dBFS
on the unit’s meter. Any level above -10 may cause clipping, which will prevent proper reading of time code.
TC Jam Mode Select
This menu controls if the TRXLA3 will go into record when it receives a record run time code.
• AUTO-JAM NORMAL - The TRXLA3 will continuously jam time code via ZaxNet and will go into record when
receiving a record command via ZaxNet or if the unit is put into record manually by pressing the CARD and
INC keys simultaneously.
• AUTO-LOAD REC RUN - In Auto-Load mode the TRXLA3 will go into record when it detects rolling time code,
and will stop when the time code stops. If time code is lost because the IFB signal is too weak the unit will
not stop but will continue in whatever state it was in until the time code signal is restored.
