TIME BASE 7 – 78 Connections Connections on the rear panel Rear panel connectors (detail) VITC-Reader/Generator/Inserter Video in / out (BNC) or S-VHS in / out Only the BNC or S-VHS connections can be active at any point. Switch- ing between them is done on Display page 2 (see page 48). These connections are used to read VITC, burn the visible Time Code into the picture and to insert VITC into the video signal (which lets you create VITC encoded video copies). Video Sync In/Out These high-impedance thru-put sockets (BNC) are provided for the Video Sync signal (House Sync, Blackburst). ❐Warning: The sync chain must be 75Ω terminated at the end of the cable), if Time Base is the only or last sync device in the chain. Use a 75Ω terminator! LTC – Longitudinal Time Code In – 1/4” TRS Jack/6.3mm stereo socket, balanced input. Out – 1/4” TRS Jack/6.3mm stereo socket, balanced input. Rear panel connectors (detail)
TIME BASE Connections 7 – 79 VST System Link In: (XLR female) – AES-EBU Synchronization input, balanced, trans- former-coupled. Out: (XLR male) – AES-EBU output, balanced, transformer-coupled. The AES/EBU input contains the VST System Link data. Word Clock OUT 1-4 BNC Word Clock Output – 75 Ω USB This is a USB version 1.1 port. You can find the necessary drivers on the Driver CD that came with Time Base. You can find the necessary driver updates on the Steinberg web site (www.steinberg.net). 9-Pin SubD 9-pin female: Connector for 9-pin remote controllable machines e.g. Sony Betacam etc. RS422 Format (not ADAT!). The 9-pin connector can automatically cross the send and receive lines, therefore using “crossed” cables is unnecessary. This is important when Time Base is used as virtual 9-pin Machine.
