FITAKY HERY

The ProPlex CodeBridge has redundant power connections.

Power the device via a USB-C cable connected to any standard 5 VDC wall charger or computer USB port
Supply Power over Ethernet (PoE) by connecting the CodeBridge Ethernet port to any PoE enabled switch or injector.

In some cases, you may want to utilize both connections. Units powered via PoE allow access to the web browser via any computer connected to the same network. Additionally, all connected CodeBridge devices will share stream data via Ethernet. USB-C connections allow for MTC data communication as well as power-IN.

INSTALATION

The ProPlex CodeClock enclosure was designed with the touring programmer in mind. We wanted these devices to be lightweight, packable and stackable – so we fitted them with oversized rubber feet to keep them stationary on most surfaces These units are also compatible with Small RackMount Kits should they need to be semi-permanently mounted for touring applications

FAMPIANARANA RACKMOUNT
ProPlex RackMount Kits are available for both Single-Unit and Dual-Unit mounting configurations To fasten the rack ears or joiners to the ProPlex PortableMount chassis, you must remove the two chassis screws on each side at the front of the chassis. These same screws are used to securely fasten the RackMount ears and joiners to the chassis For dual-unit configurations, both sets of front and rear chassis screws will be used

ZAVA-DEHIBE : Be sure to reinsert the screws into the unit after ears have been removed. Store RackMount Kit in a safe location until needed again. Spare screws are available from TMB if needed

FAMPIANARANA RACKMOUNT
Ny Kit RackMount kely tokana tokana dia misy sofina roa, IRAY lava ary IRAY fohy. Ny kisary etsy ambany dia mampiseho ny fametrahana ny RackMount Kit efa vita. Ireo sofina rack ireo dia natao ho symmetrical, ka ny sofina fohy sy lava dia azo soloina

Ny Kit RackMount Kely Dual-Unit dia manana sofina fitehirizana fohy ROA miampy mpanakambana ROA. Ny kisary etsy ambany dia mampiseho ny fametrahana ny RackMount Kit efa vita. Ity fanamafisam-peo ity dia mitaky ny tariby afovoany ROA mipetaka eo anoloana sy aoriana

FAMPIANARANA NY DUAL JOINERS
The Dual-Unit Small RackMount Kit includes FOUR joining links and FOUR countersunk flat head screws. These links are designed to nest into each other and are secured with the included screws and threaded holes. Each link piece is identical. Simply rotate the joining link and line up the installation holes to install on either the left or right side of the corresponding unit.

hetsika

Ny ProPlex CodeBride dia azo amboarina mora foana miaraka amin'ny OLED Display sy bokotra fitetezana eo anoloana ny unit.

SARITRA AN-TRANO
The CodeBridge has 3 separate HOME SCREENS that display different parameters of incoming timecode streams. Cycle between these screens by pressing either the bokotra

Efitrano fandraisam-bahiny 1
The incoming LTC IN stream is displayed at the top of the screen while the bottom area shows oscillogram and voltage level bar to indicate signal level from the LTC source only
Note: Ideally the LTC IN steam should resemble a square wave with high output level. If level is too low, try increasing the volume at the source to improve the signal

Efitrano fandraisam-bahiny 2
This screen displays all sources of timecode that the CodeBridge can detect
The topmost source is the current active source which is retransmitted further from output connections. Whichever source is active will be highlighted with a blinking background

Efitrano fandraisam-bahiny 3
The third screen displays format information on all detected streams Like Home Screen 2, the top-most source is the current active source which is retransmitted further from output connections. Whichever source is active will be highlighted with a blinking background

Main Menu
Ny Main Menu dia azo idirana amin'ny fanindriana ny button and majority of options can be exited via the button Scroll with the bokotra ary hamafiso ny safidy amin'ny bokotra.
Fanamarihana: Tsy ny menus rehetra no hifanaraka amin'ny efijerin'ny fitaovana ka mila mihodinkodina ianao raha te hiditra amin'ny menio sasany. Ny ilany havanana amin'ny ankamaroan'ny efijerin'ny menio dia hampiseho barazy izay hanampy amin'ny fanondroana ny halalin'ny fitetezana horonana.

Timecode Generator
The CodeBridge can generate clean, high output LTC out of the two isolated XLR3 ports (located on the rear of each unit)

Ampiasao ny bokotra, dia hamafiso ny safidy amin'ny bokotra hivezivezy eo anelanelan'ireo safidy mpamokatra samihafa

Format: Select between different industry standard FPS rates 23.976, 24, 25, 29.97ND, 29.97DF, and 30 FPS. If the selected format is compatible with MTC or Art-Net timecode, it will also be transmitted through that respective interface port (MIDI OUT or Ethernet ports)
Start Time: Specify a start time of HH:MM:SS:FF using navigation buttons
User Data: Specify user data in 0x00000000 hex format
Play, Pause, Rewind: User playback controls for generated timecode.

Fanamarihana: tsy maintsy mijanona eto amin'ity efijery ity ianao raha te hampiasa tsy tapaka ny mpamokatra LTC. Raha miala amin'ity efijery ity ianao, dia hijanona ho azy ny mpamokatra, ary ny loharano ankehitriny dia hiova ho amin'ny loharano mavitrika manaraka

Ambaratonga famoahana
Boost or cut the output level from +6 dBu to -12 dBu. Everything outputting via the two isolated XLR3 ports is affected by this level change.

Anisan'izany ny:

Vokatra mpamokatra

Ampiasao nybokotra, dia hamafiso ny safidy amin'ny button to cycle between the various output levels. The asterisk indicator will denote the currently selected output level

Frames mialoha ny horonana

Ny pre-roll dia ny isan'ny frame manan-kery ilaina mba hijerena ny loharanon'ny timecode ho manan-kery ary hanomboka handefa izany any amin'ny vokatra.
Ampiasao the button to highlight the Pre-roll value, then press button to edit
Ampiasao ny button to set the Pre-roll frames (1-30) and to save the value

Fanamarihana: The active stream display will always show incoming LTC stream starting from the 1st received frame regardless of Pre-roll settings

Post-roll Frames

Post-roll frames help correct erroneous or dropped frames in a timecode source
When a stream is stopped for any reason, the transmission will continue until a count equivalent to the Post-roll frames setting is reached
If an erratic source issue resolved within the Post-roll window, the device will continue streaming timecode without interruption

Use the button to highlight the Post-roll value, then press button to edit. Use to select a value place in HH:MM:SS:FF format
Press button to edit each value as needed, using or to change the count. Press after editing to save each value and repeat to edit the next.
