5.1 Sinhronizacija časovne kode

The TC-1 offers multiple methods for precise timecode synchronization:

• Bit Connectify™ Wireless Control: Control up to 20 TC-1 units from a master unit up to 250 feet away. This proprietary technology ensures robust and long-range synchronization.
• Secondary RF Chip: For closer range synchronization (up to 30 feet) between TC-1 devices, a secondary RF chip provides reliable connectivity.
• Bluetooth 5.0 & Sidus Audio™ App: Connect your TC-1 units to a smartphone or laptop via Bluetooth and use the Sidus Audio™ app for comprehensive control, monitoring, and simultaneous syncing of all units.

To sync, designate one TC-1 as the master and the others as slaves. Initiate the sync process via the master unit's menu or the Sidus Audio™ app. The Sync LED will confirm successful synchronization.

5.2 Connecting to Devices (Cameras/Recorders)

Use the provided C15 TRS to BNC cables or other compatible 3.5mm TC cables to connect the TC-1 to your recording equipment. The locking 3.5mm port ensures a secure connection during operation.

5.3 Using the Built-In Scratch Microphone

For cameras or action cameras that only feature a stereo mic input, the TC-1's built-in scratch microphone can provide a reference audio track. This is useful for quickly aligning audio in post-production, especially when a dedicated audio recorder is not used.
