Time Code and the
External Synchronization Unit ESU-1
Via the ESU-1, it is also possible to operate the ARRIFLEX 435/
435ES synchronously to other equipment (e.g. a television
monitor) during TC-operation. Before plugging in the ESU-1,
it is necessary to set the camera – and therewith the integra-
ted time code generator – to the expected ESU frame rate.
A deviation of maximum
±
1% from the time code frame
rate is acceptable. If the ESU frame rate varies too much
from that of the time code, the time code recording will switch
off (the TC-symbol on the camera display goes off). Only
when the acceptable speed range has been reached will
time code be recorded again.
Note:
During simultaneous time code and ESU operation,
the counting of the images and of time code can
run apart if the source of synchronization does
not run at an exact time code rate. This can cause
a jump in the time code count.
Time Code Buffer Battery
The internal time code clock on the camera continues
running if the camera is switched off (or if the camera is
disconnected from the power supply) as long as a time
code buffer battery has been inserted into the camera’s
functional expansion module. Ten hours after time code
was last set, time code time will cease to be buffered.
Displaying the Time Code Buffer Battery Voltage
(Mode 6)
• Depress the “MODE”-button five times to change from
Mode 1 to Mode 6.
• Depress the “SEL”-button once.
• The TC battery voltage is shown in the second line of the
display. If the voltage is < 1 V there will be no display.
Note:
The voltage should be > 7.5 V as otherwise the
TC values will not be stored.
