Synchronizing with the SMPTE Time Code
By installing the optional SMPTE IC chip IC-M2TC, you can synchronize using SMPTE. SMPTE
is a time code signal containing absolute time information.
Connecting
To receive time code from an external device, connect the SMPTE OUT jack of the other device to
the SMPTE IN jack on the rear panel. To output time code to an external device, connect the
SMPTE IN jack of the other device to the SMPTE OUT jack on the rear panel.
Setting Directions
SMPTE synchronizing is set in the same way as MIDI synchronizing. Hold down SHIFT and press
MIDI/SYNC (8 on the numeric pad) to display the MIDI/SYNC mode screen.
